I think that the correct reporting of the given values are 10⁴² kg for the Milky Way and 10⁵³ kg for the whole universe. That would be logical in that case. Since it is mentioned that each galaxy has the same mass as the Milky Way, then the number of galaxies in the universe are:

Number of galaxies = 10⁵³ kg/10²⁴ kg = 10¹¹ or 100 trillion galaxies

A car traveling initially at 9.49 m/s accelerates at the rate of 0.988 m/s^2 for 3.05s. What is it’s velocity at the end of the
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

12.50 m/s

Explanation:

Vi = 9.49 m/s

a = 0.988 m/s²

t = 3.05 s

Vf = ?

Vf = Vi + at

Vf = 9.49 + (0.988)(3.05)

Vf = 12.50 m/s

Laskar, J.: 1990, The chaotic motion of the solar system. A numerical estimate of the size of the chaotic zones, Icarus, 88, 266
balandron [24]

The chaotic nature of the Solar System excluding Pluto was established by the numerical computation of the maximum Lyapunov exponent of its secular system over 200 myr.

<h3>What is chaotic motion of the solar system ?</h3>

There has been an increase in awareness of chaotic dynamics in the solar system over the past 20 years. The orbits of tiny objects in the solar system, such as asteroids, comets, and interplanetary dust, are now known to be chaotic and to experience significant variations across geological time periods.

  • a completely unpredictable orbit, or one where significant changes in the orbit can result from even small changes in the position and/or velocity of the orbiting entity.

Two point charges of equal magnitude q are held a distance d apart. Consider only points on the line passing through both charge
NemiM [27]

let us consider that the two charges are of opposite nature .hence they will constitute a dipole .the separation distance is given as d and magnitude of each charges is q.

the mathematical formula for potential is V=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon} \frac{q}{d}

for positive charges the potential is positive and is negative for negative charges.

the formula for electric field is given as-E=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon} \frac{q}{r^2}

for positive charges,the line filed is away from it and for negative charges the filed is towards it.

we know that on equitorial line the potential is zero.hence all the points situated on the line passing through centre of the dipole and perpendicular to the dipole length is zero.

here the net electric field due to the dipole can not be zero  between the two charges,but we can find the points situated on the axial  line but  outside of charges where the electric field is zero.

now let the two charges of same nature.let these are positively charged.

here we can not find a point between two charges and on the line joining  two charges  where the potential is zero.

but at the mid point of the line joining two charges the filed is zero.

17. In which layer does mantle convection occur?
Anarel [89]

Answer:

D. Asthenosphere

Explanation:

The asthenosphere is relatively plastic part of the mantle which underlies the brittle lithosphere. In the asthenosphere, it is generally believed that the rocks are in ductile state and easily moves. It is the site of convection within the earth. In mantle convection, hot and light materials rises and keeps moving into upper crustal levels till they solidify. Here also, cold and denser materials sinks deeper till they turn to melt. This differences in temperature and density sets up a convective cell within the mantle. Several convective cells are in the mantle.
