7 0

Answer:

a.They have a smaller proportion of heavy elements.

Explanation:

As a  star grows old , its metal content becomes low . Our sun is Population I star which means it is very new . Its metal content is 1.4 % . By the term metal we mean any element heavier than helium . Population II stars are older than population I stars . They will have lesser content of metal . Population III are oldest star group which have metal content as less as .015 % .

Paraphin [41]

The formula for momentum is p = m*v

The conservation of momentum suggests:

m*vi = m*vf (initial mass times initial velocity = final mass times final velocity or initial momentum = final momentum)

(0.0010)(52.2) = (0.0010 + 3.3)vf

vf = (0.0010)(52.2)/(0.0010 + 3.3) = 0.0522/3.301 ≈ 0.01581 m/s

To the nearest thousandth  ≈ .016 m/s

A block rides on a piston that is moving vertically with simple harmonic motion. (a) If the SHM has period 2.68 s, at what ampli
fredd [130]

Answer:

Part a)

A = 1.78 m

Part b)

f = 2 rev/s

Explanation:

Part A)

As we know that time period of the motion is given as

T = 2.68 s

so we have

\omega = \frac{2\pi}{T}

\omega = \frac{2\pi}{2.68}

\omega = 2.34 rad/s

now at the point of maximum amplitude the force equation when Normal force is about to zero is given as

mg = m\omega^2 A

so we have

A = \frac{g}{\omega^2}

A = \frac{9.81}{2.34^2}

A = 1.78 m

Part b)

Now if the amplitude of the SHM is 6.23 cm

and now at this amplitude if object will lose the contact then in that case again we have

mg = m\omega^2 A

g = \omega^2 (0.0623)

\omega = 12.5 rad/s

so now we have

2\pi f = 12.5

f = 2 rev/s

1. How far away must you be from a 675 kHz radio station with power 50.0 kW for there to be only one photon per second per squar
goldenfox [79]

a) 0.321 ly

b) 0.321 light years is not far in astronomical terms. Alien life would need to transmit at tremendous power in order for their radio transmissions to be detectable. Their radio signal also needs to be stronger than background noise in order to be distinguishable. Therefore it is unlikely that radio transmissions from alien life will ever be detected.

How does the force of gravity affect the rate of acceleration?
Vesnalui [34]
Gravity lets all objects fall to the ground at the same speed, 9.8 m/s/s. If the force of gravity were stronger, such as 10 m/s/s, the rate of acceleration would be faster.
