We learned that We are in the disk of the Galaxy, about 5/8 of the way from the center.
<h3>What is the work of Harlow Shapley?</h3>
Shapley, who was headquartered in Boulder, Colorado, used Cepheid variable stars to estimate the size of the Milky Way Galaxy and its position relative to the Sun. In 1953, he published his "liquid water belt" theory, today known as the concept of a livable zone.
There are many stars, grains of dust, and gas in the Milky Way. It is known as a spiral galaxy because, from the top or bottom, it would appear to be whirling like a pinwheel. About 25,000 light-years from the galaxy's nucleus, the Sun is situated on one of the spiral arms.
Approximately 5/8 of the way from the galaxy's nucleus, we are in the disc. William Herschel believed that the Sun and Earth were about in the middle of the vast cluster of stars known as the Milky Way.

Answer:
a. 2v₀/a b. 2v₀/a
Explanation:
a. Since you are moving with a constant velocity v₀, the distance, s you cover in time = t max is s = v₀t.
Since the dragster starts from rest with an acceleration, a, using
s' = ut + 1/2at² where u = 0 and s' = distance moved by dragster
s' = 0t + 1/2at²
s' = 1/2at²
Since the distance moved by me and the dragster must be the same,
s = s'
v₀t. = 1/2at²
v₀t. - 1/2at² = 0
t(v₀ - 1/2at) = 0
t= 0 or v₀ - 1/2at = 0
t= 0 or v₀ = 1/2at
t= 0 or t = 2v₀/a
So the maximum time tmax = 2v₀/a
b. Since the distance covered by me to meet the dragster is s = v₀t in time, t = tmax which is also my distance from the dragster when it started. So, my distance from the dragster when it started is s = v₀(2v₀/a)
= 2v₀/a
I am almost sure it it (c)
Answer:
66.6 or it could be 66.66 one of those
Explanation:
The behavior of an ideal gas at constant temperature obeys Boyle's Law of
p*V = constant
where
p = pressure
V = volume.
Given:
State 1:
p₁ = 10⁵ N/m² (Pa)
V₁ = 2 m³
State 2:
V₂ = 1 m³
Therefore the pressure at state 2 is given by
p₂V₂ = p₁V₁
or
p₂ = (V₁/V₂) p₁
= 2 x 10⁵ Pa
Answer: 2 x 10⁵ N/m² or 2 atm.
