What is the average velocity if the initial velocity of an object is 19 mph and the final velocity of 75 mph ?

Answer:

Hi I hope this is correct!

Explanation:

To find average velocity you can use the formula av = (v1 + v2) / 2

*I converted everything into m/s because that it usually the measurement for velocity*

v1 = initial velocity = 8.49376 m/s , v2 = final velocity = 33.528 m/s

av = 8.49376 + 33.528 / 2

    = 21.01088 m/s

*If you were required to leave the final answer in mph here it is

av = 19 + 75 / 2

    = 47 mph

Hope this helps! Best of luck <3

Show that rigid body rotation near the Galactic center is consistent with a spherically symmetric mass distribution of constant
irakobra [83]

To solve this problem we will use the concepts related to gravitational acceleration and centripetal acceleration. The equality between these two forces that maintains the balance will allow to determine how the rigid body is consistent with a spherically symmetric mass distribution of constant density. Let's start with the gravitational acceleration of the Star, which is

a_g = \frac{GM}{R^2}

Here

M = \text{Mass inside the Orbit of the star}

R = \text{Orbital radius}

G = \text{Universal Gravitational Constant}

Mass inside the orbit in terms of Volume and Density is

M =V \rho

Where,

V = Volume

\rho =Density

Now considering the volume of the star as a Sphere we have

V = \frac{4}{3} \pi R^3

Replacing at the previous equation we have,

M = (\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3)\rho

Now replacing the mass at the gravitational acceleration formula we have that

a_g = \frac{G}{R^2}(\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3)\rho

a_g = \frac{4}{3} G\pi R\rho

For a rotating star, the centripetal acceleration is caused by this gravitational acceleration.  So centripetal acceleration of the star is

a_c = \frac{4}{3} G\pi R\rho

At the same time the general expression for the centripetal acceleration is

a_c = \frac{\Theta^2}{R}

Where \Theta is the orbital velocity

Using this expression in the left hand side of the equation we have that

\frac{\Theta^2}{R} = \frac{4}{3}G\pi \rho R^2

\Theta = (\frac{4}{3}G\pi \rho R^2)^{1/2}

\Theta = (\frac{4}{3}G\pi \rho)^{1/2}R

Considering the constant values we have that

\Theta = \text{Constant} \times R

\Theta \propto R

As the orbital velocity is proportional to the orbital radius, it shows the rigid body rotation of stars near the galactic center.

So the rigid-body rotation near the galactic center is consistent with a spherically symmetric mass distribution of constant density

If stellar parallax can be measured to a precision of about 0.01 arcsec using telescopes on the Earth to observe stars, to what
marin [14]

Answer:

It corresponds to a distance of 100 parsecs away from Earth.

Explanation:

The angle due to the change in position of a nearby object against the background stars it is known as parallax.

It is defined in a analytic way as it follows:

       

\tan{p} = \frac{1AU}{d}

Where d is the distance to the star.

p('') = \frac{1}{d} (1)  

Equation (1) can be rewritten in terms of d:

d(pc) = \frac{1}{p('')} (2)

Equation (2) represents the distance in a unit known as parsec (pc).

The parallax angle can be used to find out the distance by means of triangulation. Making a triangle between the nearby star, the Sun and the Earth (as is shown in the image below), knowing that the distance between the Earth and the Sun (150000000 Km), is defined as 1 astronomical unit (1AU).

For the case of   (p('') = 0.01):

d(pc) = \frac{1}{0.01}

d(pc) = 100

Hence, it corresponds to a distance of 100 parsecs away from Earth.

<em>Summary:</em>

Notice how a small parallax angle means that the object is farther away.

Key terms:

Parsec: Parallax of arc second
