How is an elliptical galaxy different from a spiral galaxy?

Physics

An elliptical galaxy is a type of galaxy having an approximately ellipsoidal shape and a smooth, nearly featureless brightness profile.

Unlike flat spiral galaxies with organization and structure, they are more three-dimensional, without much structure, and their stars are in somewhat random orbits around the center.

An electric circuit can have no current when a switch is
Finger [1]

Answer:

Open

Monochromatic light passes through a double slit, producing interference, the distance between the slit centres is 1.2 mm and th
Alik [6]

Answer:

The wavelength of the light is 7200\ \AA.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance between the slit centers d= 1.2 mm

Distance between constructive fringes \beta= 0.3\ cm

Distance between fringe and screen D= 5 m

We need to calculate the wavelength

Using formula of width

\beta=\dfrac{D\lambda}{d}

Put the value into the formula

0.3\times10^{-2}=\dfrac{5\times\lambda}{1.2\times10^{-3}}

\lambda=\dfrac{0.3\times10^{-2}\times1.2\times10^{-3}}{5}

\lambda=7.2\times10^{-7}\ m

\lambda=7200\ \AA

Hence, The wavelength of the light is 7200\ \AA.

            <span> Using conservation of energy

Potential Energy (Before) = Kinetic Energy (After)

mgh = 0.5mv^2

divide both sides by m

gh = 0.5v^2

h = (0.5V^2)/g

h = (0.5*2.2^2)/9.81

h = 0.25m
