What causes the spiral structural in milky way?

Mrac [35]4 years ago

The spiral structure of the milky way can be explained by long lived quasi-static density waves<em>, </em><em>according to the lin-shu hypothesis. </em>Curiously, the waves of higher density gas and stars (seen as spiral arms) appear to remain static as stars move around the galaxy. This explained by assuming that the gravitational disturbances cause by the 'clumping' material in the arms does not affect the gravitational field of the galaxy as whole and is therefore negligible.

What is the minimum work needed to push a 920-kg car 310 m up along a 6.5 ∘incline? Ignore friction.Express your answer using tw
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

2800000J

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Mass = 920kg, weight = 920 * 9.8 = 9016N

Distance = 310m

Angle of inclination = 6.5°

Work done is given as :

W = F*d*cosA

Where A = angle of inclination

W = (9016 * 310 * cos6.5)

W = 2776993.59J

In 2 significant figures, W = 2800000J

A tomato of mass 0.18 kg is dropped from a tall bridge. If the tomato has a speed of 11 m/s just before it hits the ground, what
kondor19780726 [428]
The kinetic energy of the tomato is : 

K.E =  1/2 mv^2

K.E = 1/2 x 0.18 kg x 11 m/S^2

K.E = 0.99
