The sun makes so much energy that we are able to see the sun's brightness and feel its heat. Hydrogen fusion occurs in the Sun's core and the gas is heated by the energy that is released above the core. Eventually, the gas becomes less dense and the heat from below turns the gas buoyant

Answer:

Sun is bright because it is closer to the earth and the radiation that  reaches the earth's surface gives out the heat.

Explanation:

The thermonuclear fusion reactions are responsible for the heat and light emitted by any star.

As a result of the fusion reactions that occur in its core, sun's core is very very hot. This heat is radiated outward and after passing through several zones of the sun itself, the surface temperature of the Sun cools to about about 6000 K.

Sun radiates electromagnetic radiation that can travel through space and then penetrate the earth's atmosphere. Ozone layer which is present in the ozonosphere of the earth's atmosphere filters the UV rays coming from the sun. The radiation in the form of heat and light is absorbed by the particles of air in the earth's atmosphere, there by heating the surface.

A ball is thrown w a speed of 30m/s at an angle of 10. When is the vertical component of the velocity equal to zero
irga5000 [103]

Now the vertical velocity of the ball thrown at an angle 10° is given as

Voy(initial vertical velocity)= 30m/s x sin 10

Voy(initial vertical velocity)= 5.2m/s

Now the ball is decelerating with an acceleration due to gravity equivalent to 9.8m/s^2.

Let Vy be the final velocity and that is equal to zero in this case.

Now

Vy= Voy- tx9.8

Where t is the time at which the vertical velocity becomes 0.

Substituting the values we get

0= 5.2-tx9.8

9.8t=5.2

t=0.53 secs

A runner with a mass of 62 kg running at speed of 0.8m/s ​
sashaice [31]

Answer:

so the kinetic energy is 20Nm

Explanation:

mass of the body=m=62kg

velocity of the body=v=0.8m/s

K.E.=?

AS WE KNOW THAT

K.E.=\frac{1}{2}mv²

putting values

K.E.=\frac{1}{2}}×62kg×(0.8m/s)²

K.E.=31kg×0.64m²/s²

K.E.=19.84Nm≈20Nm

i hope it will help you:)

Near the surface of the earth what is the magnitude and direction of the acceleration due to gravity?
nordsb [41]

On the surface of the Earth, the acceleration due to gravity is 

                 <em>9.8 meters/sec²  </em>(rounded)

toward the center of the Earth.

Wherever we are, since that's the direction in which things fall when they're
dropped, we call the direction toward the center of the Earth by the name "<u>down</u>",
although it's a different direction in every place.
