What do clusters of galaxies form?

Clusters of galaxies form due to the gravitational attraction between individual galaxies in a region of space. Over time, these galaxies are pulled together by their mutual gravity to create a cluster structure. The largest clusters are held together by dark matter, which provides the majority of the mass in the system.


What is the primary force involved in the formation of galaxies after the big bang?

Gravity is the primary force involved in the formation of galaxies after the big bang. Over time, the gravitational attraction between matter caused it to clump together, forming structures like galaxies and clusters of galaxies.


What is the relation between time and mass?

There is no relation between time and mass in classical mechanics or quantum mechanics. However in relativity the mass of a particle depends on the location the particle is in a gravitational field and on the particles velocity. These alterations in mass are directly attributable to time dilation effects. i. e. time dilation and mass changes are one in the same phenomena.


Why some elliptical galaxies are lens shaped where as others are quite spherical?

Very lens-shaped elliptical galaxies have a high amount of reddish stars. Hence both their shape (the "spiral arms" have pulled inward over time) and the color of the stars implies they are very old galaxies. Spherical galaxies - I'm not up enough on that topic, so I will leave that part of the answer to another.


Why do scientists study distant galaxies to learn about galaxies?

Scientists study distant galaxies to understand the formation, evolution, and properties of galaxies over time. By observing galaxies that are far away, they can explore the universe at different epochs and gain insights into how galaxies have changed and evolved since the early universe. Studying distant galaxies also helps scientists refine theories about the laws of physics and the nature of the universe as a whole.

Do all the galaxies form a bigger galaxy?

Over time - billions of years - galaxies will merge with other galaxies. In about 3 billion years, the Andromeda galaxy will merge with our own galaxy, the Milky Way.However, the separation between galaxies is so great, that not all galaxies will merge unless the fundamental issue of the amount of mass in the Universe is determined.If we live in a "contracting universe" then eventually all galaxies will merge.

What is 1 mg of data time in minutes?

A milligram is a measure of mass and, as far as I am aware, data time is not measured as a mass. Consequently, conversion between the two is not valid.A milligram is a measure of mass and, as far as I am aware, data time is not measured as a mass.

If the mass of bob of a simple pendulum is doubled its time period is what?

The time period of a simple pendulum is not affected by the mass of the bob, as long as the amplitude of the swing remains small. So, doubling the mass of the bob will not change the time period of the pendulum.


Does length and mass affect speed and distance?

I cannot say about "lenght", but distance is a measure of length so length affects distance. Speed is the rate of change of distance (over time) so length affects speed. Mass does not significantly affect speed or distance but, because they are affected by acceleration and acceleration is affected by mass (for a given force), then mass affects them. Also, mass affects space time and the presence or absence of mass changes the lines along which distances are measured and so distances and speed are affected.


Do black holes provide the physical force to structure galaxies?

No. The mass, and therefore the gravitation, of black holes, are only a tiny fraction of matter in the galaxies. The greatest part of the matter in a galaxy is dark matter - matter of unknown composition at the time of this writing.


Why aren't all the galaxy's the same?

No. Galaxies vary greatly in size, mass, shape, and number of stars.


How long is 100 mass in seconds?

You can't convert between units of mass and units of time.


Why isn't the look-back time important among nearby galaxies?

Galaxies change very slowly.


When can you travel galaxies?

any time I guess?
