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.

A firecracker breaks up into two pieces , one has a mass of 200 g and files off along the x –axis with a speed of 82.0 m/s and t
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

A) 21.2 kg.m/s at 39.5 degrees from the x-axis

Explanation:

Mass of the smaller piece = 200g = 200/1000 = 0.2 kg

Mass of the bigger piece = 300g = 300/1000 = 0.3 kg

Velocity of the small piece = 82 m/s

Velocity of the bigger piece = 45 m/s

Final momentum of smaller piece = 0.2 × 82 = 16.4 kg.m/s

Final momentum of bigger piece = 0.3 × 45 = 13.5 kg.m/s

since they acted at 90oc to each other (x and y axis) and also momentum is vector quantity; then we can use Pythagoras theorems

Resultant momentum² = 16.4² + 13.5² = 451.21

Resultant momentum = √451.21 = 21.2 kg.m/s at angle 39.5 degrees to the x-axis  ( tan^-1 (13.5 / 16.4)

A pendulum has a length of 2 m and a 30 kg mass hanging on the end. What is the period of the
anastassius [24]

Answer:

T = 2.83701481512 seconds

Explanation:

Hi!

The formula that you will want to use to solve this question is:

T = 2\pi *\sqrt{\frac{L}{g}  }

T--> period

L --> length of the pendulum

g --> acceleration due to gravity (9.8m/s^2)

since we know that the mass of the bob at the end of the pendulum does not affect the period of the pendulum, we can go ahead and ignore that bit of information (unless, of course, the weight causes the pendulum to stretch)

so now we can plug in our given info into the formula above and solve!

T = 2*pi * sqrt(2/9.8)

T = 2.83701481512 seconds

*Note*

- I used 3.14 to pi, if you need to use a different value for pi (a longer version, etc) your answer will be slightly different

I hope this helped!

Answer:

elliptical orbit

Explanation:

There are three laws of planetary motion, which are called Kepler's law of planetary motion.

First Law : It states that all the planets revolve around the sun in an elliptical path and the sun is at one focus of that elliptical path.
