Answer:

Elliptical galaxies

Explanation:

Edwin Hubble classified galaxies into three categories

Elliptical

Spiral

Lenticular

The elliptical galaxies have an elipsoidal shape roughly. They have stars which are old and the primary light source of the galaxy. The formation of new stars is very limited. This increases the brightness of the galaxy. The mass of the stars are low. So, far the percentage elliptical galaxies is low compared to other galaxies.

An electron with charge −e and mass m moves in a circular orbit of radius r around a nucleus of charge Ze, where Z is the atomic

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

$v=\sqrt{\frac{kZe^2}{mr}}$

Explanation:

The electrostatic attraction between the nucleus and the electron is given by:

$F=k\frac{(e)(Ze)}{r^2}=k\frac{Ze^2}{r^2}$ (1)

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

Ze is the charge of the nucleus

e is the charge of the electron

r is the distance between the electron and the nucleus

This electrostatic attraction provides the centripetal force that keeps the electron in circular motion, which is given by:

$F=m\frac{v^2}{r}$ (2)

where

m is the mass of the electron

v is the speed of the electron

Combining the two equations (1) and (2), we find

$k\frac{Ze^2}{r^2}=m\frac{v^2}{r}$

And solving for v, we find an expression for the speed of the electron:

$v=\sqrt{\frac{kZe^2}{mr}}$

determine the maximum angle theta for which the light rays incident on the end of the optical fiber of radius 1 mm are subhect t

Vesna [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the critical angle be C .

sinC = 1 / μ where μ is index of refraction .

sinC = 1 /1.2

= .833

C = 56°

Then angle of refraction r = 90 - 56 = 34 ( see the image in attached file )

sin i / sinr = 1.2 , i is angle of incidence

sini = 1.2 x sinr = 1.2 x sin 34 = .67

i = 42°.

Studies of sedimentary rocks and fossils have helped scientists understand the history of Earth. How is geologic time organized

grin007 [14]

Eras and then smaller periods based on geologic and biologic events that occurred during those times. According to geological time scale, there are six eras from the beginning some periods of few eras & then period is classified into smaller units called "epoch"

In short, Your Answer would be Option B

Hope this helps!
