How does nuclear fusion affect the life cycle of a star?.

Physics
1 answer:
Fittoniya [83]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

As the main sequence star glows, hydrogen in its core is converted into helium by nuclear fusion. When the hydrogen supply in the core begins to run out, and the star is no longer generating heat by nuclear fusion, the core becomes unstable and contracts

Explain why increasing the mass of a car affects how the car rolls down a ramp.
Irina-Kira [14]
F = ma (force = mass x acceleration)

So the car’s mass affects the amount of force, changing how it would roll down a ramp, I think.

Practice Exercises Name: : Billy-Joe stands on the Talahatchee Bridge kicking stones into the water below a) If Billy-Joe kicks
babymother [125]

Answer:

a) The answer is 11,7m

b) The time it takes to fall will be shorter

Explanation:

We will use the next semi-parabolic movement equations

H=Hi+Viy*t+1/2*g*t

X=Xi+Vx*t

Where g(gravity acceleration)=9,81m/s^2

Also Xi, Hi and Viy are zero, as the stones Billy-Jones is kicking stay still before he moves them, so we take that point as the reference point

The first we must do is to find how much time the stones take to fall, this way:

t=(5.40m)/(3.50m/s)

Then t=1,54s

After that we need to replace t to find H, this way

H=(1/2)*(9,81m/s^2)*(1,54s)^2

Then H=11,7m

b) The stones will fall faster as the stones will be kicked harder, it will cause the stones move faster, it means, more horizontal velocity. In order to see it better we could assume the actual velocity is two times more than it is, so it will give us half of the time, this way:

t=(5,40m)/(2*3,50m/s)

Then, t=0,77

A goose with a mass of 2.0 kg strikes a commercial airliner with a mass of 160,000 kg head-on. Before the collision, the goose w
Goryan [66]

Answer:

The change in momentum of the goose during this interaction is 33.334 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of goose, m₁ = 2.0 kg

mass of commercial airliner, m₂ = 160,000 kg

initial velocity of the bird, u₁ = 60 km/hr  = 16.667 m/s

initial velocity of the airliner, u₂ = 870 km/hr = 241.667 m/s

Change in momentum is given as;

ΔP = mv - mu

where;

u is the initial velocity of the bird

v is the final velocity of the bird

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum;

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)

where;

v is the final velocity of bird and airliner after collision;

(2 x 16.667) + (160,000 x 241.667) = v (2 + 160,000)

38,666,753.334 = 160,002v

v = 38,666,753.334 / 160,002

v = 241.664 m/s

Thus, the final velocity of the bird is negligible compared to final  velocity of the airliner.

ΔP = mv - mu

ΔP = m(v - u)

ΔP = 2(0 - 16.667)

ΔP = -33.334 m/s

The negative sign implies a deceleration of the bird after the impact.

Therefore, the change in momentum of the goose during this interaction is 33.334 m/s
