Answer: SBb

On 1930 the astronomer Edwin Hubble classified the galaxies based on their visual appearance into elliptical, spiral and irregular, being the first two classes the most frequent.  

So, according to this classification, the Milky Way is a barred spiral galaxy (SBb in Hubble's notation system) because it has a central bar-shaped structure of bright stars that spans from one side of the galaxy to the other. In addition, its spiral arms seem to emerge from the end of this "bar".

Scientifics considered this, after measuring the the disk and central bulge region of the galaxy, and the conclusion is the Milky Way fulfills these conditions, because is a galaxy that orbits on its same axis and with this rotation its arms are twisted in opposite directions around the mentioned axis.

1. During which phase of the moon may a solar eclipse occur? (Points : 1)
kotykmax [81]
1. New moon
This is because the moon comes between the Earth and sun and this is only possible during its new moon phase.

2. Full moon
This is because the Earth comes between the Moon and the sun and the effect is only visible when there is a full moon.

3. Corona
The corona is the outer layer and is the only one visible when there is an eclipse.

What do we mean by the event horizon of a black hole?
TEA [102]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The event horizon is the surface of a black hole, it is the border of space-time in which the events on one side of it can not affect an observer on the other side.  

That is, at this border also called "point of no return", nothing can escape (not even light) and no event that occurs within it can be seen from outside.

A ruby laser delivers a 16.0-ns pulse of 4.20-MW average power. If the photons have a wavelength of 694.3 nm, how many are conta
stepan [7]

Answer:

The  value is  n  =  2.347 *10^{17} \  photons

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  amount of power delivered is  P  =  4.20 \  M W  =  4.20  *10^{6} \  W

      The  time taken is  t =  16.0ns  =  16.0 *10^{-9} \  s

       The  wavelength is  \lambda  =  694.3 \  nm =  694.3 *10^{-9} \  m

     

Generally the energy delivered is  mathematically represented as

     E  =  P  * t  =  \frac{n  *  h  *  c  }{\lambda }

Where  h is the Planck's constant with value  h  =  6.262  *10^{-34} \  J \cdot  s

           c  is the speed of light with value  c =  3.0*10^{8} \  m/s

     

So  

    4.20 *10^{6}  *  16*10^{-9}=  \frac{n  *  6.626 *10^{-34}  *  3.0*10^{8}  }{694.3 *10^{-9}}

=>    n  =  2.347 *10^{17} \  photons
