Astronomers thought that a nova was a new star, appearing for the first time in the heavens, today we know that it is as a binary star system.

<h3>What is the binary star system about?</h3>

A binary star system is known to be one where one star is known to be called a white dwarf and there is a mass that is said to be transferred to it

A binary star is known to be a kind of a system that is composed of two stars that are known to be gravitationally held together to and in orbit near each other.

Note that Binary stars in the night sky are ones that are often seen as a single object and thus Astronomers thought that a nova was a new star, appearing for the first time in the heavens, today we know that it is as a binary star system.

You have two points in a soil. Point A is at 75 cm; point B is at 25 cm above the reference. The capillary potential energy at p
user100 [1]

Answer:

The potential energy at point A is 17.1675 J

Explanation:

The capillary potential is the work expended to bring up a unit mass of liquid to a point in a capillary region from a level liquid surface. It is the capillary potential that facilitates the movement of moisture within soil capillaries

In meteorology it is used to describe the level of saturated soil above the water table

Potential energy is the energy inherent in a body by virtue of its position, therefore the potentials of both point A and B are

Point A, elevation = 75 cm capillary potential = -100 cm

Point B, elevation = 25 cm capillary potential = -200 cm

The total potential energy at point A is

Elevation above reference - capillary potential =75-(-100) = 175 cm

which gives per unit mass

PE = m × g × h = 1 kg × 9.81 m/s ² × 1.75 m = 17.1675 kg·m²/s² = 17.1675 J

Ice-skater slides toward a sled sitting on the ice and hits it. The skater exerts a 12.6 N force on the sled at an angle of 15.3
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Expression of work done is

W = Fd cos\theta

Work done to move the sled is given as 187.2 J

Explanation:

As we know that the formula of work done is given as

W = Fd cos\theta

here we know that

F = 12.6 N

d = 15.4 m

\theta = 15.3 degree

so we will have

W = 12.6 \times 15.4 cos15.3

W = 187.2 J

A slab of glass has a 0.600 cm thick layer of water on top of it. A light ray strikes the water at an incident angle of 59.0°. A
Dimas [21]

Answer:

49.63 degree

Explanation:

thickness of glass slab, t = 0.6 cm

angle of incidence = 59 degree

Let r be the angle of refraction

The refractive index of glass, ng = 3/2

refractive index of water, nw = 4/3

refarctive index of glass with respect to water = ng / nw = 3 /2 ÷ 4 /3 = 9 / 8

So, by use of Snell's law

Refractive index of glass with respect to water = Sin i / Sin r

9 / 8 = Sin 59 / Sin r

9 / 8 = 0.857 / Sin r

Sin r = 0.7619

r = 49.63 degree
