Gravity

Neutron stars are the most extreme and fascinating objects known to exist in our universe: Such a star has a mass that is up to twice that of the sun but a radius of only a dozen kilometers: hence it has an enormous density, thousands of billions of times that of the densest element on Earth. An important property of neutron stars, distinguishing them from normal stars, is that their mass cannot grow without bound. Indeed, if a nonrotating star increases its mass, also its density will increase. Normally this will lead to a new equilibrium and the star can live stably in this state for thousands of years. This process, however, cannot repeat indefinitely and the accreting star will reach a mass above which no physical pressure will prevent it from collapsing to a black hole. The critical mass when this happens is called the "maximum mass" and represents an upper limit to the mass that a nonrotating neutron star can be.

However, once the maximum mass is reached, the star also has an alternative to the collapse: it can rotate. A rotating star, in fact, can support a mass larger than if it was nonrotating, simply because the additional centrifugal force can help balance the gravitational force. Also in this case, however, the star cannot be arbitrarily massive because an increase in mass must be accompanied by an increase in the rotation and there is a limit to how fast a star can rotate before breaking apart. Hence, for any neutron star, there is an absolute maximum mass and is given by the largest mass of the fastest-spinning model.

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Septic tanks and oxidation ponds

Explanation:

These system of wastewater treatment and disposal are not too feasible in large municipalities because of the presence of sewer system that has been made available by government, in order to mitigate the possibilities of transmitting enteric diseases that are very harmful to human health.

Need help ASAP, TY plz answer if you know it
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

root hairs → 1. absorbs water and nutrients from the soil

vascular tissue → 2. consists of xylem and phloem

chloroplast → 3. the site of photosynthesis inside the cell

stem → 4. holds the leaves up high into the sunlight

leaf → 5. acts like an umbrella to absorb light  

terminal bud → 6. the growing part of the stem

taproot → 7. roots that reach deep into the ground

Explanation:

I have been able to match each term to its correct description.

From the above, we will discover that these are parts of a plant. These parts of the plant enable the plant to carry out photosynthesis and to exist.

The root hairs of the plant absorbs water and nutrients from the soil. When such are absorbed, the vascular tissues help to transport them.

The vascular tissue consists of the xylem and phloem. They  transport fluid and nutrients inside the plant. The vascular tissue is associated with two meristems which are the vascular cambium and the cork cambium. It is at the chloroplast that photosynthesis occur; where light energy is converted to chemical energy.

The stem holds the leaves firmly in order to project it to the sunlight. The leaf absorb sunlight which is needed for photosynthesis. The terminal bud is actually the part of the stem that is growing out. Taproot reach deep down the ground in search of water for the plant.

Answer:

C). The particles move slower until the matter changes into a liquid.
