Assume that there is a constant ratio between stellar mass and light in the disks of spiral galaxies, and that disks have a constant surface brightness. use the scaling with radius r, of the stellar mass within such a radius, and the scaling of circular velocity, vc, with enclosed mass (ignoring dark matter), to "explain" the tully–fisher relation, l ? vc4. the fourth-power dependence is indeed what is observed at infrared wavelengths, at which light traces stellar mass relatively well. in reality, however, dark matter cannot be ignored, and spiral disks do not have a constant surface brightness.

Which of the following correctly describes what happens when an atomic bomb explodes? small pieces of fissionable material are joined and form a body with a mass greater than the critical mass, the relative number of neutrons escaping decreases, and a chain reaction and explosion result. large pieces of fissionable matter are brought together quickly and form a body with a mass smaller than the critical mass, the relative number of escaping neutrons increases, and a chain reaction and explosion result.

Ineed this now one scientist feels that the changes in global climatic patterns may be good for the health of the biosphere. another scientist feels that sharp changes in climatic patterns could result in the extinction of the biosphere. which of these is the most likely reason the two scientists gave conflicting opinions on the impact of changes in the global climatic pattern? they do not have enough knowledge on the topic. they did not discuss the issue among themselves. they believe conflicting opinion strengthens science. they study different areas of science and have different scientific focuses.
