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.

One end of the rope is vibrated to produce a wave with a wavelength of 0.25 m. The
evablogger [386]

Answer:

3) 0.75m/s

Explanation:

The wavelength of a wave is calculated using the formula;

λ = v/f

Where!

λ = wavelength of wave (m)

v = velocity or speed (m/s)

f = frequency of wave (Hz)

According to this question, one end of a rope is vibrated to produce a wave with a wavelength (λ) of 0.25 m and frequency (f) of 3.0 Hz.

Using λ = v/f

v = λ × f

v = 0.25 × 3

v = 0.75m/s.

Which level of maslow's hierarchy of needs is fulfilled by the nurse fitting a client who nearly died of asphyxiation with an ox
ICE Princess25 [194]

The correct answer is: first level.

Maslow's hierarchy of needs is a theory in psychology that is represented by hierarchical levels of human needs within a pyramid. There are five levels of needs:

1. Physiological (food, water, rest..),  

2. Safety ,  

3. love and belonging (friends, intimated relationships),  

4. esteem (feeling of accomplishment),  

5. self-actualization (achieving your own potentials).

Identify the fungus type pictured below.
MatroZZZ [7]
That would be ascomycota or sac fungi. Sac fungi are characteristically known for producing ascus. This is a sac-like structure that contains haploid spores called ascospores. Some examples of sac fungi are yeast, truffles, morels and dead man's fingers.

When walking her 6-year old son for school, a mother observes that the boy is limping. She notices that his left knee is swollen
nignag [31]

Staphylococcus aureus is the organism which will most likely be the cause of this infection.

<h3>What is an Infection?</h3>

This is defined as the process in which germs invade the body system and the outcome is usually negative.

Staphylococcus aureus  is a halophilic bacteria which can grow under salty conditions which is why the mannitol is broken down to acid to form a yellow growth.

Some examples where you have seen a chemical change and the mass has stayed the same
finlep [7]
The law of conservation of mass states that the mass will stay constant given a chemical reaction because no atoms were created or destroyed. This being said, an example can include water evaporating in a clear bottle outside on a hot day ( the mass of the bottle will stay the same, but the liquid water evaporated into gaseous water).
