Mira is much bigger than the Sun.

Only very massive stars will go through a supernova stage, causing the outer layer to explode away and the core to collapse in on itself, becoming very dense.

As the nuclear fusion within the core of Mira loses fuel the force pushing in on the core start to overwhelm the outward force. as this happens the star core becomes dense starts to fuse nuclei into heavier elements. once the star reaches iron, there is nothing left to fuse and the outward force suddenly gives way, therefore the gravitational force suddenly pulls the outer layers toward the center at high speeds, but once it is condensed against the iron core, the outer part essentially bounces off the iron core, shooting the outer layer of the star out into space in an explosion known as a supernova. our sun however, does not have enough pressure to fuse nuclei into iron. this means that the outward force of the star will actually be able to compensate for the gravitational force and as the star runs out of fuel, the star will compress and become denser fusing more nuclei, therefore pushing out with more force than the gravitational is pushing in. this means that instead if the star collapsing on itself it will grow until it uses up all its fuel, before it will slowly shrink until it completely dies out

Consider a horizontal, uniform board of weight 125 N and length 4 m that is supported by vertical chains at each end. A person w
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

b. 375 N

Explanation:

System of forces in balance

ΣFy = 0 Equation (1)

Forces acting on the board

T₁: Tension in the  left chain ,  vertical and upward

T₂ = 250 N : Tension in the right chain ,  vertical and upward

W₁ = 125 N : Weight of the  board , vertical and downward

W₂ =  500 N : Weight of the  person , vertical and downward

Calculation of the T₁

We apply the Equation (1)

ΣFy = 0  

T₁+T₂-W₁-W₂ = 0

T₁ = -T₂+W₁+W₂

T₁ = -250 N+ 125 N+ 500 N

T₁ = 375 N

Which of the following affects the rate constant of a reaction?
Dennis_Churaev [7]
Arrhenius' equation relates the dependence of rate constant of a chemical reaction to the temperature. The equation below is the Arrhenius equation
k = Ae ^{{ \frac{-Ea}{RT} } } where k is the rate constant, T is the absolute temperature. As the temperature of the system increases, the rate constant also increases and vice versa.

Problem 1: Two sources emit waves that are coherent, in phase, and have wavelengths of 26.0 m. Do the waves interfere constructi
Anton [14]

1) Destructive interference

The condition for constructive interference to occur is:

\delta = m\lambda (1)

where

\delta =|d_1 -d_2| is the path difference, with

d_1 is the distance of the point from the first source

d_2 is the distance of the point from the second source

m is an integer number

\lambda is the wavelength

In this problem, we have

d_1 = 78.0 m\\d_2 = 143 m\\\lambda=26.0 m

So let's use eq.(1) to see if the resulting m is an integer

\delta =|78.0 m-143 m|=65 m\\m=\frac{\delta }{\lambda}=\frac{65 m}{26.0 m}=2.5

It is not an integer so constructive interference does not occur.

Let's now analyze the condition for destructive interference:

\delta = (m+\frac{1}{2})\lambda (2)

If we apply the same procedure to eq.(2), we find

m=\frac{\delta}{\lambda}-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{65.0 m}{26.0 m}-0.5=2

which is an integer: so, this point is a point of destructive interference.

2) Constructive interference

In this case we have

d_1 = 91.0 m\\d_2 =221.0 m

So the path difference is

\delta =|91.0 m-221.0 m|=130.0 m

Using the condition for constructive interference:

m=\frac{\delta }{\lambda}=\frac{130.0 m}{26.0 m}=5

Which is an integer, so this is a point of constructive interference.

3) Destructive interference

In this case we have

d_1 = 44.0 m\\d_2 =135.0 m

So the path difference is

\delta =|44.0 m-135.0 m|=91.0 m

Using the condition for constructive interference:

m=\frac{\delta }{\lambda}=\frac{91.0 m}{26.0 m}=3.5

This is not an integer, so this is not a point of constructive interference.

So let's use now the condition for destructive interference:

m=\frac{\delta}{\lambda}-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{91.0 m}{26.0 m}-0.5=3

which is an integer: so, this point is a point of destructive interference.
