A star is in hydrostatic equilibrium when the outward push of pressure due to core burning is exactly in balance with the inward

pull of gravity. When the hydrogen in a star's core has been used up, burning ceases, and gravity and pressure are no longer in balance. This causes the star to undergo significant changes.
Which of the following evolutionary changes would bring a star back into hydrostatic equilibrium? Check all that apply:

a) A small increase in the star's internal pressure and temperature causes the star's outer layers to expand and cool.
b) A small decrease in the star's internal pressure and temperature causes the star's outer layers to contract and heat up.
c) A small increase in the star's internal pressure and temperature causes the star's outer layers to contract and heat up.
d) A small decrease in the star's internal pressure and temperature causes the star's outer layers to expand and cool.

Answer:

a and b

Explanation:

Hydro static equilibrium holds a star steady and balanced. Whenever a star stops burning hydrogen in its center, there must be evolutionary improvements to maintain equilibrium for the star Of example, if a star's internal pressure and temperature fall, gravity will take over and force the star to contract and heat up, restoring stability. By contrast, if a star's internal pressure and temperature rises, the extra pressure causes the star to widen and cool, restoring balance.

so, according to above explanation options a and b both are true

a) A small increase in the star's internal pressure and temperature causes the star's outer layers to expand and cool.

b) A small decrease in the star's internal pressure and temperature causes the star's outer layers to contract and heat up.

Emmett is lifting a box vertically. Which forces are necessary for calculating the total force?
GrogVix [38]

When Emmett is lifting a box vertically, the forces that must be added to calculate the total force are: the gravitational force, tension force(the force exerted by Emmett to the box and the force exerted by the box to Emmett), and air resistance force.

Analyzing the Light Bulb: You should have noticed that the light bulb doesn't have a single well-defined "resistance," since the
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

Resistance increases with increase in temperature which depends on power supplied which also depends on voltage.

Thermal expansion will make resistance larger.

Explanation:

Light bulb is a good example of a filament lamp. If we plot the graph of voltage against current we will notice that resistance is constant at constant temperature.

The filament heats up when an electric current passes through it, and produces light as a result.

The resistance of a lamp increases as the temperature of its filament increases. The current flowing through a filament lamp is not directly proportional to the voltage across it.

tensile stress begins to appear in resistor as the temperature rises. Thus, the resistance value increases as the temperature rises. Resistance value can only decrease as the temperature rises in case of thin film resistor with aluminium substrate.

In case of a filament bulb, the resistance will increase as increase in length of the wire. The thermal expansion in this regard is linear expansivity in which resistance is proportional to length of the wire.

Resistance therefore get larger.

Two forces act on a 6.00-kg object. One of the forces is 10.0 N. If the object accelerates at 2.00 m/s2
liubo4ka [24]

Given :

Two forces act on a 6.00-kg object. One of the forces is 10.0 N.

Acceleration of object 2 m/s².

To Find :

The greatest possible magnitude of the other force.\

Solution :

Let, other force is f.

So, net force, F = 10 + f.

Now, acceleration is given by :

a=\dfrac{F}{mass}\\\\a= \dfrac{10+f}{6}\\\\\dfrac{10+f}{6}=2\\\\f = 12 - 10\\\\f = 2 \ N

Therefore, the greatest possible magnitude of the other force is 2 N.

Hence, this is the required solution.
