Heavier elements require higher temperatures to fuse. After stars run out of hydrogen in their cores, they leave the main sequen
Kruka [31]

Answer:

A. Add mass to the Sun.

Explanation:

A. Add mass to the Sun.

Adding mass will make to take more time for the hydrogen to run out and hence, enough temperature will be developed to fuse helium atom into other heavier elements, and eventually get hot enough to fuse the helium in their cores into carbon.

The only hypothetical solution is that we need to add Mass to the Sun.

Consider the following four objects: a hoop, a solid sphere, a flat disk, a hollow sphere. Each of the objects has mass M and ra
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Hoop.

Explanation:

The angular acceleration performed at a given torque:

\alpha = \frac{\tau}{I}

The moments of inertia of each element are described below:

Hoop

I = M\cdot R^{2}

Solid sphere

I = \frac{2}{5}\cdot M \cdot R^{2}

Flat disk

I = \frac{1}{2}\cdot M \cdot R^{2}

Hollow sphere

I = \frac{2}{3}\cdot M \cdot R^{2}

The greater the moment of inertia, the greater the torque to obtain the same angular acceleration. Therefore, the hoop requires the largest torque to receive the same angular acceleration.

The Gulf Stream off the east coast of the United States can flow at a rapid 3.9 m/s to the north. A ship in this current has a c
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

72.54 degree west of south

Explanation:

flow = 3.9 m/s north

speed = 11 m/s

to find out

point due west from the current position

solution

we know here water is flowing north and ship must go south at an equal rate so that the velocities cancel and the ship just goes west

so it become like triangle with 3.3 point down and the hypotenuse is 11

so by triangle

hypotenuse ×cos(angle) = adjacent side

11 ×cos(angle) = 3.3

cos(angle) = 0.3

angle = 72.54 degree west of south
