What causes the spiral structural in milky way?

1 answer:

6 0

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 quantity of heat must be removed from 20g<br>of water at 0°C to change it to ice at 0°C?

seraphim [82]

The quantity of heat must be removed is 1600 cal or 1,6 kcal.

<h3>Explanation : </h3>

From the question we will know if the condition of ice is at the latent point. So, the heat level not affect the temperature, but it can change the object existence. So, for the formula we can use.

$\boxed {\bold {Q = m \times L}}$

If :

Q = heat of latent (cal or J )
m = mass of the thing (g or kg)
L = latent coefficient (cal/g or J/kg)

<h3>Steps : </h3>

If :

m = mass of water = 20 g => its easier if we use kal/g°C
L = latent coefficient = 80 cal/g

Q = ... ?

Answer :

$Q = m \times L \\ Q = 20 \times 80 = 1600 \: cal$

So, the quantity of heat must be removed is 1600 cal or 1,6 kcal.

A baseball is hit into the air with a velocity of 27 m/s. How high does it go?

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

If a baseball is hit into the air with a velocity of 27 m/s, we want to determine the maximum height of the ball. Using the projecile formula;

Max height H = u²/2g

u is the initial velocity of the body = 27m/s

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81m/s²

H = 27²/2(9.81)

H = 729/19.62

H = 37.16m

Hence the ball went 37.16m high

a chuck wagon with an initial velocity of 4 m/s and a mass of 35 kg gets a push with 350 joules of force. what is the wagon's fi

Kitty [74]

Answer:

the final velocity of the wagon is 6 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the wagon, u = 4 m/s

mass of the wagon, m = 35 kg

energy applied to the wagon, E = 350 J

The final velocity of the wagon is calculated as;

E = ¹/₂m(v² - u²)

$m(v^2-u^2) = 2E\\\\v^2-u^2 = \frac{2E}{m} \\\\v^2 = \frac{2E}{m} + u^2\\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{2E}{m} + u^2} \\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{2(350)}{35} + (4)^2}\\\\v = 6 \ m/s$

Therefore, the final velocity of the wagon is 6 m/s.
