Answer: NGC 1427A has no general shape, so it is an irregular galaxy. U has a bulge in the center and arms, so it is a spiral galaxy. They are similar in that both contain plenty of dust and gas. Both also have active star-forming sites.

Answer/explanation :

NGC 1427A is an irregular galaxy in the constellation Eridanus. Its distance modulus has been estimated using the globular cluster luminosity function to be 31.01 ± 0.21 which is about 52 Mly.[2] It is the brightest dwarf irregular member of the Fornax cluster and is in the foreground of the cluster's central galaxy NGC 1399.

$\boxed{\sf K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 18750=\dfrac{1}{2}2100v^2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 18750=1050v^2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto v^2=\dfrac{18750}{1050}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto v=\sqrt{17.85}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto v=4.1m/s$

Concept map for kinetic energy, work and power

Helen [10]

Kinetic energy: the energy of motion

Work: the change in kinetic energy

Power: the rate of work done

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion. Mathematically, it is given by:

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

The work done an object is the amount of energy transferred; according to the energy-work theorem, it is equal to the change in kinetic energy of an object:

$W=K_f - K_i$
