A white dwarf cannot support its own weight by its degenerate pressure if its mass is greater than 1.4 solar masses.

<h3>What are white dwarfs?</h3>

White dwarfs are stellar core remnant composed mostly of electron-degenerate matter.

White dwarf is very dense due to its large mass and smaller volume.

<h3>Reasons for comparable mass of white dwarfs and Sun</h3>
  • Stars with main sequence masses less than about 0.5 solar masses cannot ignite the helium fusion required to become white dwarfs.
  • A white dwarf cannot support its own weight by its degenerate pressure if its mass is greater than 1.4 solar masses.

You wish to buy a motor that will be used to lift a30-kg bundle of shingles from the ground to the roof of a house. The shingles
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

the minimum value of torque is 101.7 N-m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of bundle of shingles, m = 30 kg

Upward acceleration of the shingles,

The radius of the motor of the pulley, r = 0.3 m

Let T is the tension acting on the shingles when it is lifted up. It can be calculated as :

T-mg=ma

T=m(g+a)

T=10\times (9.8+1.5)\\T = 113 N

Let \tau is the minimum torque that the motor must be able to provide. It is given by :

\tau=r\times T\tau=0.3\times 339\tau=101.7\ N-m

the minimum value of torque is 101.7 N-m.
