<span>Answer: Spherical Distribution Feedback: Correct The stars in the halo component have highly-inclined random orbits that orbit the center of our Galaxy. The stars within the halo would therefore make up a spherical distribution of stars surrounding the center of the Galaxy. In comparison, the disk stars move in elliptical orbits, which are nearly circular and are confined to the disk of the Galaxy. Disk stars therefore have very small inclinations and do not move above or below the plane of the Galactic disk.</span>

Assuming the same current is running through two separate coils, why is it easier to thrust a magnet into a wire coil with one l
s2008m [1.1K]
The magnetic field strength in a coil is directly proportional to the number of turns, or loops, in the coil.
Therefore, when there are four loops instead of one, the magnetic field strength has increased four times, making it harder to push the magnet in.

Triss [41]

Answer:

The principle of conservation of energy and angular momentum

Explanation:

At point A, the car experienced maximum of potential energy

As it moves down the hill, the potential energy decreases while the kinetic energy increases.

The maximum kinetic energy of the car is needed for the attainment of enough centripetal force to help the car move through the loop without falling .
