The cluster that is most likely to be located in the halo of our galaxy is the diagram that shows main-sequence stars of every spectral type except O, along with a few giants and supergiants.
<h3>What are star clusters?</h3>Star clusters are large collections of stars. Star clusters are classified into two types: Globular clusters are gravitationally bound groups of tens of thousands to millions of old stars.
Because of their location on the dusty spiral arms of spiral galaxies, they are sometimes referred to as galactic clusters. Stars in an open cluster share a common ancestor as they all formed from the same massive molecular cloud.
A typical spiral galaxy has a faint, extended stellar halo. A stellar halo is an essentially spherical population of stars and globular clusters thought to surround most disk galaxies and the cD class of elliptical galaxies. It should be noted that a halo is a spherical cloud of stars surrounding a galaxy. Astronomers have proposed that the Milky Way's halo is composed of two populations of stars.

Newton's third law of motion sates that force is directly proportional to the rate of change of momentum produced
(a) The final speeds of the ice sleds is approximately 0.49 m/s each
(b) The impulse on the cat is 11.0715 kg·m/s
(c) The average force on the right sled is 922.625 N
The reason for arriving at the above values is as follows:
The given parameters are;
The masses of the two ice sleds, m₁ = m₂ = 22.7 kg
The initial speed of the ice, v₁ = v₂ = 0
The mass of the cat, m₃ = 3.63 kg
The initial speed of the cat, v₃ = 0
The horizontal speed of the cat, v₃ = 3.05 m/s
(a) The required parameter:
The final speed of the two sleds
For the first jump to the right, we have;
By the law of conservation of momentum
Initial momentum = Final momentum
∴ m₁ × v₁ + m₃ × v₃ = m₁ × v₁' + m₃ × v₃'
Where;
v₁' = The final velocity of the ice sled on the left
v₃' = The final velocity of the cat
Plugging in the values gives;
22.7 kg × 0 + 3.63 × 0 = 22.7 × v₁' + 3.63 × 3.05
∴ 22.7 × v₁' = -3.63 × 3.05
v₁' = -3.63 × 3.05/22.7 ≈ -0.49
The final velocity of the ice sled on the left, v₁' ≈ -0.49 m/s (opposite to the direction to the motion of the cat)
The final speed ≈ 0.49 m/s
For the second jump to the left, we have;
By conservation of momentum law, m₂ × v₂ + m₃ × v₃ = m₂ × v₂' + m₃ × v₃'
Where;
v₂' = The final velocity of the ice sled on the right
v₃' = The final velocity of the cat
Plugging in the values gives;
22.7 kg × 0 + 3.63 × 0 = 22.7 × v₂' + 3.63 × 3.05
∴ 22.7 × v₂' = -3.63 × 3.05
v₂' = -3.63 × 3.05/22.7 ≈ -0.49
The final velocity of the ice sled on the right = -0.49 m/s (opposite to the direction to the motion of the cat)
The final speed ≈ 0.49 m/s
(b) The required parameter;
The impulse of the force
The impulse on the cat = Mass of the cat × Change in velocity
The change in velocity, Δv = Initial velocity - Final velocity
Where;
The initial velocity = The velocity of the cat before it lands = 3.05 m/s
The final velocity = The velocity of the cat after coming to rest =
∴ Δv = 3.05 m/s - 0 = 3.05 m/s
The impulse on the cat = 3.63 kg × 3.05 m/s = 11.0715 kg·m/s
(c) The required information
The average velocity
Impulse = × Δt
Where;
Δt = The time of collision = The time it takes the cat to finish landing = 12 ms
12 ms = 12/1000 s = 0.012 s
We get;
∴
The average force on the right sled applied by the cat while landing, = 922.625 N
