Answer: Option (D)

Explanation: A galaxy is considered to be a large and extensive body comprised of the interstellar dust particles, dark matter and variable gases. The above mentioned particles are attached with one another forming variable shapes and are all held by the gravitational force. Gravity is the main factor responsible for the existence of this galaxies.

This is the reason, why the different shaped galaxies exist in the vast space, maintaining some similarity with one another.

Thus the correct answer is Option (D).

The change in momentum of an object is equal to the Question 4 options: Force acting on it times its velocity. impulse acting on

lesya [120]

Answer:

impulse acting on it

Explanation:

The impulse is defined as the product between the force applied to an object (F) and the time interval during which the force is applied ( $\Delta t$ ):

$I=F\Delta t$

We can prove that this is equal to the change in momentum of the object. In fact, change in momentum is given by:

$\Delta p = m \Delta v$

where m is the mass and $\Delta v$ is the change in velocity. Multiplying and dividing by $\Delta t$ , we get

$\Delta p = m \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} \Delta t$

and since $\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$ is equal to the acceleration, a, we have

$\Delta p = ma \Delta t$

And since the product (ma) is equal to the force, we have

$\Delta p = F \Delta t$

which corresponds to the impulse.

(20 points) You are at the center of a boat and have been rowing the boat for a long time. You weigh only 80 kg and your 120 kg

valina [46]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

Let the first weight be $m_ 1$ = 80 kg

The weight of the buddy be $m_2$ = 120 kg

The weight of Bubba be $m_3$ = 60 kg

Also, since you and Budda are a distance of 4m to each other, then the length to which both meet buddy will be:

$x_1 = x_3 = \dfrac{4}{2} \\ \\ = 2$

The length of the boat be $x_2$ = 4 m

∴

We can find the center of mass of the system by using the formula:

$X_{CM} = \dfrac{m_1x_1+m_2x_2+m_3x_3}{m_1+m_2+m_3} \\ \\ X_{CM} = \dfrac{(80 \times 2)+(120\times4)+(60\times2)}{80+120+60} \\ \\ X_{CM} = \dfrac{160+480+120}{260} \\ \\ \mathbf{X_{CM} = 2.923}$

a 1.2x10^3 kilogram car is accelerated uniformly from 10. meters per second to 20 meters per second in 5.0 seconds. what is the

irinina [24]

Force , F = ma

F = m(v - u)/t

Where m = mass in kg, v= final velocity in m/s, u = initial velocity in m/s
t = time, Force is in Newton.

m= 1.2*10³ kg, u = 10 m/s, v = 20 m/s, t = 5s

F = 1.2*10³(20 - 10)/5

F = 2.4*10³ N = 2400 N

A truck contains both hydraulic brakes (reliability 0.96) and mechanical brakes (reliability 0.99). What is the probability of s

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

i) 0.9504

ii) 0.0452

Explanation:

Given data: reliability of hydraulic brakes= 0.96

reliability of mechanical brakes = 0.99

So the probability of stopping the truck = 0.96×0.99= 0.9504

At low speed

case: A works and B does not

= 0.96×(1-0.99) = 0.0096

case2 : B works and A does not

= 0.99×(1-0.96) = 0.0396

Therefore, probality of stopping = 0.0096+0.0396 = 0.0492
