Answer: Elliptical galaxy

Explanation:

There are mainly three types of galaxies: Spiral, Elliptical and Irregular. Elliptical galaxies do not have any arms unlike spiral galaxies. The elliptical galaxies are smoother and uniform in appearance. These contain relatively old stars with any site of new star formation missing. In fact, scientists consider elliptical galaxies as those galaxies which are nearing the end of their evolution.

Justine is ice-skating at the Lloyd Center. What is her final velocity if she accelerates at a rate of 2.0 m/s for 3.5 seconds?

belka [17]

Answer:

7 m/s

Explanation:

Acceleration, $a=\frac {v-u}{t}$

Where v and u are the final and initial velocities of the Justine respectively, t is the time taken for Justin to attain final velocity.

Making v the subject then

v=at+u

Taking u as zero then

Substituting 3.5 for t, 2 as a then

v=3.5*2=7 m/s

A 1 kilogram ball has 8 joules of kinetic energy. what is its speed

ivann1987 [24]

$KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} \\ v = \sqrt{ \frac{2KE}{m} } \\ v = \sqrt{ \frac{2*8J}{1kg} } \\ v = 4m/s$

Therefore, the ball has a velocity of 4m/s.
