Answer: B.  gravitation

Explanation:

Nebula is a stellar nursery. It is composed of dust and gases. This molecular cloud condenses under its own weight and forms a core which spins and gathers more mass due to gravity. This causes temperature and pressure to rise which kicks in the nuclear fusion reaction and a star is said to be born.

Thus, gravitation is responsible for formation of star.

Vlada [557]

Answer:

The minimum speed required is 5.7395km/s.

Explanation:

To escape earth, the kinetic energy of the asteroid must be greater or equal to its gravitational potential energy:

K.E\geq P.E

or

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 \geq  G\dfrac{Mm}{R}

where m is the mass of the asteroid, R= 24,000,000\:m is its distance form earth's center, M = 5.9*10^{24}kg is the mass of the earth, and G = 6.7*10^{-11}m^3/kg\: s^2 is the gravitational constant.

Solving for v we get:

v \geq \sqrt{\dfrac{2GM}{R} }

putting in numerical values gives

v \geq \sqrt{\dfrac{2(6.7*10^{-11})(5.9*10^{24})}{(24,000,000)} }

\boxed{v\geq 5739.5m/s}

in kilometers this is

v\geq5.7395m/s.

Hence, the minimum speed required is 5.7395km/s.

Improving your cardiovascular endurance, such as aerobic activity, can get your heart pumping, make you sweaty, and quicken your
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

The correct answer is - oxygen.

Explanation:

Cardiovascular endurance is the ability to do physical activity or exercise without affecting or being tired for a longer time period. Aerobic exercise or activity can help to increase cardiovascular endurance.

Improving the cardiovascular system helps in delivering oxygen as per the demands with the help of the heart that pumps the oxygen-rich blood to different organs of an individual and lungs by inhaling enough oxygen.

erastova [34]

Answer:

c_u=1540.5J/kg^{\circ}K

Explanation:

We know that heat relates to mass, specific heat and variation of temperature experimented because of this heat through the equation Q=mc\Delta T=mc(T_f-T_i). The heat released by the unknown material is absorbed by water, so we have Q_u=-Q_w, and we can write:

m_uc_u(T_{uf}-T_{ui})=-m_wc_w(T_{wf}-T_{wi})

Since thermal equilibrium is reached we know that T_{cf}=T_{wf}=T_f=31^{\circ}C=304^{\circ}K, where we have added 273^{\circ} to convert the temperature from Celsius to Kelvin, as <em>we must do</em>. Since we want the specific heat of the unknown material, we do:

c_u=-\frac{m_wc_w(T_f-T_{wi})}{m_u(T_f-T_{ui})}

Which for our values is:

c_u=-\frac{(1.1kg)(4186J/kg^{\circ}K)((304^{\circ}K)-(294^{\circ}K))}{(0.49kg)((304^{\circ}K)-(365^{\circ}K))}=1540.5J/kg^{\circ}K

Thermal energy can be converted into motion by which of the following devices?
Ivanshal [37]
C.) Steam engine!

This is because thermal energy is similar to heat energy. You can think of this like boiling water to create “energy.” This is the same thing boil water to create steam engine!

I hope this is helpful and brainiest if correct!
