Elliptical galaxies, such as M87 (left), have very little gas and dust. Because gas and dust are found in the clouds that are the birthplaces of stars, we should expect to see very few young stars in elliptical galaxies. In fact, elliptical galaxies contain primarily old, red stars (also known as Population II stars).

Elliptical galaxies vary widely in size. Both the largest and the smallest known galaxies are elliptical. Very large elliptical galaxies can reach 300 million light years in diameter. Dwarf ellipticals, which are very common, may contain only 1/100,000th as many stars as the Milky Way!

Which equations could be used as is, or rearranged to calculate for frequency of a wave? Check all that apply.
amm1812
-- Equations  #2  and  #6  are both the same equation,
and are both correct.

-- If you divide each side by  'wavelength', you get Equation #4,
which is also correct.

-- If you divide each side by  'frequency', you get Equation #3,
which is also correct. 
With some work, you can rearrange this one and use it to calculate
frequency.

Summary:

-- Equations #2, #3, #4, and #6 are all correct statements,
and can be used to find frequency.

-- Equations #1 and #5 are incorrect statements.

A 50 kg bicyclist, traveling at a speed of 12 m/s, applies the brakes, slowing her speed to 3 m/s.
Bezzdna [24]

a) Work done = Net Kinetic Energy

= 1/2 x 50 kg x ((12m/s)^2 - (3m/s)^2)

= 0.5 x 50 Kg x (144 -9)(m/s)^2

= 3375 Kg (m/s)^2

b) Force = mxa

a = 120 N/50 Kg = 2.4 m/s^2

Using newtons third law of motion, we get-

V^2 - U^2 = 2 x a x S

S= (12^2-3^2)m^2/s^2/(2 x 2.4 m/s^2)

= 28.125 m
