Answer:

Spiral galaxies consist of a flat, rotating disk of stars, gas and dust, and a central concentration of stars known as the bulge. These are surrounded by a much fainter halo of stars, many of which reside in globular clusters.

Elliptical galaxies have smooth, featureless light-profiles and range in shape from nearly spherical to highly flattened, and in size from hundreds of millions to over one trillion stars. In the outer regions, many stars are grouped into globular clusters. Most elliptical galaxies are composed of older, low-mass stars, with a sparse interstellar medium and minimal star formation activity They are often chaotic in appearance, with neither a nuclear bulge nor any trace of spiral arm structure. Collectively they are thought to make up about a quarter of all galaxies.

irregular galaxies were once spiral or elliptical galaxies but were deformed by gravitational action. they are shapeless.

.3.3: Populating a vector with a for loop. Write a for loop to populate vector userGuesses with NUM_GUESSES integers. Read integ
Reptile [31]

Answer:

#include <iostream>

#include <vector>

using namespace std;

int main() {

  const int NUM_GUESSES = 3;

  vector<int> userGuesses(NUM_GUESSES);

  int i = 0;

int uGuess = 0;

for(i = 0; i <= userGuesses.size() - 1; i++){

 cin >> uGuess;

 userGuesses.at(i) = uGuess;

}

cout << endl;

  return 0;

}

Explanation:

First inbuilt library were imported. Then inside the main( ) function, 3 was assigned to NUM_GUESSES meaning the user is to guess 3 numbers. Next, a vector was defined with a size of NUM_GUESSES.

Then a for-loop is use to receive user guess via cin and each guess is assigned to the vector.

If a girl carries groceries up a flight of stairs, is she doing work on the groceries? Explain.​
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

Yes she is doing work. With or without the groceries, she is still doing work. She does more work with the groceries than without because Work is defined by F which is defined by mass. The mass increases with the groceries.

The work done is against the force of gravity.
