Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy that the body possesses by virtue of its motion.

The formula for Kinetic energy is given by \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Using this formula let us find kinetic energy for the bodies given and find out which is the greatest

A) KE = \frac{1}{2} (4m)(v^2) = 2mv^2

B) KE =\frac{1}{2} (3m)(2v)^2 = 6mv^2

C) KE = \frac{1}{2} (2m)(3v)^2 = 9mv^2

D) KE = \frac{1}{2} (3)(4v)^2 = 8mv^2

Comparing these we find that 9mv^2 is the highest.

Hence option C is the answer.

Answer: The hierarchical formation model suggests that galaxies may have been formed  by subsequent mergers of smaller galaxies and that today each galaxy houses at least  a supermassive black hole.

Explanation: During a fusion of galaxies, the stars that composes it suffer the tidal force, intensifying your action as the galaxies approaching. When two galaxies merges themselves, the astronomers believes that they loss a huge part of their mass, forming the supremassive black hole, that stays in the middle of the galaxie.

The supermassive black holes are originated from the evolution of high mass stars. They were formed by huge clouds of gas or clusters of millions of stars that collapsed on their own gravity when the universe was still much younger and denser.

Which accident will be more damaging, collision between two trucks
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

collision between truck

Explanation:

Answer. Collision between trucks, because more is the mass, more is the inertia and therefore more is the momentum. Mass of the trucks is more than that of cars so collision of trucks will cause more damage.
