<h2>Answer: irregular</h2>

According to Hubble  galaxies are classified into elliptical, spiral and irregular.

 

It should be noted this classification is based only on the visual appearance of the galaxy, and does not take into account other aspects, such as the rate of star formation or the activity of the galactic nucleus.  

The classification is as follows:  

1. Elliptical galaxies: Their main characteristic is that the concentration of stars decreases from the nucleus, which is small and very bright, towards its edges. In addition, they contain a large population of old stars, usually little gas and dust, and some newly formed stars.  

2. Spiral galaxies: They have the shape of flattened disks containing some old stars and also a large population of young stars, enough gas and dust, and molecular clouds that are the birthplace of the stars.  

3. Irregular Galaxies:  Galaxies that do not have well-defined structure and symmetry.  

In this context, galaxy M82 does not match with the first two types of galaxies, because it has not a defined shape.

Therefore, M82 is an  irregular galaxy.

Answer:

wavelenght

Explanation:

The wavelength is the spatial period of a wave, analogous to the temporal period, it is the distance between two consecutive points with maximum amplitude that are repeated in space . In the waves of the sea, the wavelength is easily observed in the separation between two consecutive ridges.

A 48.0-kg skater is standing at rest in front of a wall. By pushing against the wall she propels herself backward with a velocit
Kipish [7]

Answer:

F = 47.6 N

Explanation:

  • Newton's 2nd law can be expressed as the rate of change of the total momentum, respect of time, as follows:

       F = \frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}

  • So, in order to find the average force exerted by the skater on the wall, we can find the change in momentum due to the force exerted by the wall (which is equal and opposite to the one exerted by the skater), and  divide it by the time interval , as follows:

       F_{wall} = \frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t} =\frac{(48.0 kg*(-1.06m/s)}{1.07s} = -47.6 N

       ⇒ Fsk = 47.6 N (normal to the wall)

When a quantity of monatomic ideal gas expands at a constant pressure of 4.00×104pa, the volume of the gas increases from 2.00×1
Semmy [17]
Yes that is correct. We know this because 4.00 x 10 4 Pa is constant. If you have 2.00×10−3m3 then you do the following: (2.00×10^−3)(4.00×10^<span> 4) = </span>8.00×10^−3. That is how you get your answer
