They were formed in the nuclear fusion reaction inside older stars.

As a star burns, fusion reactions inside its core create heavier elements. Those materials are released when the star dies of old age in an explosion.

Winds blowing toward the east are called easterlies. True or False

eimsori [14]

Answer: False

Explanation:

Winds are named for the cardinal direction they blow from. Hence, a wind that "blows towards the east", logically should come from the west and is called a "west wind".

In thise sense, one of the best examples of this type of wind are the Westerlies, which are are prevailing winds that blow from the west at midlatitudes and have the characteristic that are stronger during winter and weaker during summer.

Therefore, the statement is false.

An object of mass 300 g, moving with an initial velocity of 5.00i-3.20j m/s, collides with an sticks to an object of mass 400 g,

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

Velocity is 2.17 m/s at an angle of 9.03° above X-axis.

Explanation:

Mass of object 1 , m₁ = 300 g = 0.3 kg

Mass of object 2 , m₂ = 400 g = 0.4 kg

Initial velocity of object 1 , v₁ = 5.00i-3.20j m/s

Initial velocity of object 2 , v₂ = 3.00j m/s

Mass of composite = 0.7 kg

We need to find final velocity of composite.

Here momentum is conserved.

Initial momentum = Final momentum

Initial momentum = 0.3 x (5.00i-3.20j) + 0.4 x 3.00j = 1.5 i + 0.24 j kgm/s

Final momentum = 0.7 x v = 0.7v kgm/s

Comparing

1.5 i + 0.24 j = 0.7v

v = 2.14 i + 0.34 j

Magnitude of velocity

$v=\sqrt{2.14^2+0.34^2}=2.17m/s$

Direction,

$\theta =tan^{-1}\left ( \frac{0.34}{2.14}\right )=9.03^0$

Velocity is 2.17 m/s at an angle of 9.03° above X-axis.
