If a star collapses to a tenth its size, gravitation at its surface increases by 100 times as much.

The contraction of an astronomical object caused by its own gravity, which tends to pull stuff inward toward the center of gravity, is known as gravitational collapse. A cloud of interstellar matter gradually collapses under the influence of gravity to form a star. The temperature rises as a result of the compression brought on by the collapse until thermonuclear fusion takes place in the star's core. At this point, the collapse gradually comes to an end as the outward heat pressure equalizes the gravitational forces. Following that, the star is in a condition of dynamic equilibrium. A star will repeatedly collapse once all of its energy sources have been used up until it reaches a new equilibrium condition.

While standing at the top of an 100 m high observatory, you accidentally dropped your phone through the grates (it is now fallin
Arturiano [62]

Using the idea of motion under gravity, it will take 0.5 seconds more before the phone hits the ground.

<h3>What is the distance covered?</h3>

The distance covered is obtained form the equations of kinematics under gravity.

Now;

v = u + gt

Recall that it was dropped from a height hence u = 0 m/s

v = gt

v = 9.8 m/s^2 * 4 s

v = 39.2 m/s

Now;

h = ut + 1/2gt^2

but u = 0 m/s

h = 1/2gt^2

h = 1/2 * 9.8 * (4)^2

h = 78.4 m

The phone  will not hit the ground within this time

For the phone to hit the ground;

h = 1/2gt^2

if h = 100 m

100 = 1/2 * 9.8 * t^2

2 * 100/9.8 =  t^2

t = √2 * 100/9.8

t = 4.5 seconds

It will take about 0.5 seconds more before the phone will hit the ground.

Each element has an atomic number state which is meant by atomic number
netineya [11]

Answer: The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom, and isotopes have the same atomic number but differ in the number of neutrons. The number of protons in an atom is called its atomic number. This number is very important because it is unique for atoms of a given element. All atoms of an element have the same number of protons, and every element has a different number of protons in its atoms.

An engineering intern is studying the effect of temperature on the resistance of a current carrying wire. She applies a voltage
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

I=2.80 A

Explanation:

We Know that    R =R₀(1+∝ ΔT)

                           R=R₀ (1+3.9*10⁻³ *(61-20))

                           R=R₀ (1.1599)

                           I=V/R=V/(R₀ (1.1599)

                           1.4 = V/(R₀ (1.1599)                       ∵ equation 1

                     We have to calculate I when T=-88°

                              R =R₀(1+∝ ΔT)

                             R=R₀ (1+3.9*10⁻³ *(-88-20))

                             R=R₀ (0.5788)

                             I=V/(R₀ (0.5788)                          ∵equation 2

Dividing equation 2 by equation 1

                             \frac{I}{1.4} =\frac{1.1599}{0.5788}

                            I = 2.80 A
