Answer: is constant

Explanation:

In order to analyze the velocity of the stars within a galaxy, the <u>galaxy rotation curves</u> (developed by the American astronomer Vera Rubin) are used. These graphs are elaborated as a scatter diagram in which the orbital velocity of the stars present in a galaxy is represented on the Y axis and the distance of these stars to the center of the galaxy on the X axis.

Thanks to this diagram, it has been possible to observe a characteristic behavior in the rotation speed of the stars (and gas) present in the galaxies, which differs from the rules of the orbital movement of the planetary systems postulated by Newton and Kepler.

This means that in these galaxy rotation curves it has been observed that the rotation speed of stars and gas is "constant", regardless of the distance to the center of the galaxy. This discrepancy and these results were then used to demonstrate the existence of dark matter in the universe.

How are government structures in Mexico similar to or different from those in the United States?
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

following the end of the civil in 1949, Costa Rica abolished its army and redirected its budget to-ward healthcare and education.  Ever since and up to this day, Costa Rica has achieved some of thehighest living standards and development indicators in Latin America.  Furthermore, unlike mostother countries in the region,  Costa Rica has not had dictatorships or armed conflicts since the abolishment of its army.  In addition, soon after the abolishment of its army, the country started experiencing  a  notable  economic  growth  divergence  relative  to  the  rest  of  the  countries  in  the region.  Thus, these institutional changes along with long-standing democratic history have been considered to be factors of paramount importance that have led to these developmental achieve-ments and democratic stability in the country up to this day.

Both Mexico and The united states are federal republics and and are divided into states also, the head of state is known as "President" and also has the same legislation.

Should the international community be selective when it comes to intervening or not intervening in international crises?
Greeley [361]
This is more of a debatable topic

we should be in all international affair’s and crisis. These crisis’ will affect us on not only a global level but also our economic level. An example think about how gas prices rose up and we shut down our oil Riggs for environmental reasons. we were running on imports from other nations. We were not independent as a nation; we use to be self reliant as to why gas prices around in new York was $3 per us gallon now it’s up to about $6 U.S. per gallon. If you went elsewhere they were already up to 6 dollars a gallon sometimes more but now it’s almost 10 dollars in some places which is insane !
People saw $6 at the pump and were outraged. People complained about how gas doubled in price in less than a year
Think about when the United States was in its early development it went through a period of isolation and they stopped their isolation once they saw the “iron curtain” sweeping across the globe with its red blanket. ( this was known as the Cold War )
Since then we’ve had our hands in foreign diplomatic relations and crisis intervention.
We’ve had many casualties as a result but I believe the ends justifies the means.

You can use current politics as references with the economy and how such an impact was created after we “sanctioned” the Russians.
