How are galaxies named?

Physics
1 answer:
choli [55]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Some galaxies are given descriptive names (e.g. "Andromeda", "Whirlpool") if they are particularly distinctive in location or appearance. But most galaxies are known from their designation in a catalogue. One of the earliest catalogues of objects in the sky was made by Charles Messier.

How much work is done when a very large force is applied to an object but does not move the object?
Ierofanga [76]
                         Work  =  (force) x (distance)

If the distance is zero (the object doesn't move), then it
doesn't matter how great the force is.  The work is still zero.

A car is moving South at a constant speed of 60 miles per hour. The force of the
Anastaziya [24]

Answer: 750 N

Explanation:

The net force is 1200 - 450 = 750 N

As we are told the speed is constant, then this force must be increasing the car's potential energy by climbing a hill.

F = mgsinθ

If we knew the car mass, we could find the hill slope angle.

If we knew the hill slope angle, we could find the car mass.

A circular hole in an aluminum plate is 2.739 cm in diameter at 0.000°C. What is the change in its diameter when the temperature
prisoha [69]

Answer:

L = 2.746 cm

Explanation:

As we know that thermal expansion coefficient of aluminium is given as

\alpha = 24 \times 10^{-6} per ^oC

now we also know that after thermal expansion the final length is given as

L = L_o(1 + \alpha \Delta T)

here we know that

L_o = 2.739 cm

\alpha = 24 \times 10^{-6}

\Delta T = 108 - 0= 108^oC

now we will have

L = 2.739(1 + 24 \times 10^{-6} (108))

L = 2.746 cm

Determine the inductive reactance for a 50 mH inductor that is across a 15 volt, 400 Hz source.
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

Inductive reactance is 125.7 Ω

Explanation:

It is given that,

Inductance, L=50\ mH=0.05\ H

Voltage source, V = 15 volt

Frequency, f = 400 Hz

The inductive reactance of the circuit is equivalent to the impedance. It opposes the flow of electric current throughout the circuit. It is given by :

X_L=2\pi fL

X_L=2\pi \times 400\ Hz\times 0.05\ H

X_L=125.66\ \Omega

X_L=125.7\ \Omega

So, the inductive reactance is 125.7 Ω. Hence, this is the required solution.

What is the approximate mass of air in a living room 4.5m×3.4m×2.9m? the density of air is 1.29 kg/m3?
topjm [15]
First we have to calculate the volume of the living room:
V = L x W x H = 4.5 m * 3.4 m * 2.9 m
V = 44.37 m³
We know that Density = 1.29 kg/m²
D = m / V
m = D · V
m = 1.29 kg/m³ · 44.37 m³
m = 57.2373 kg ≈ 57.2 kg
Answer: The approximate mass of air in living room is 57.2 kg.
