A star of mass 2.0 ✕ 1029 kg that is 1.8 ✕ 1020 m from the center of a galaxy revolves around that center once every 2.2 ✕ 108 y
ears. Assuming that this star is essentially at the edge of the galaxy, each of the stars in the galaxy has a mass equal to that of this star, and the stars are distributed uniformly in a sphere about the galactic center, estimate the number of stars in the galaxy. (Do not round your answer to an order of magnitude.)

42.5W
Explanation:
To solve this problem we must go back to the calculations of a weighted average based on the time elapsed thus,
We need to calculate the average power dissipated by the 800\Omega resistor.
Our values are given by:
Aplying the values to the equation we have:
