What evidence do we have that the halo population of stars are older than other stars in the galaxy?

Physics
1 answer:
weeeeeb [17]3 years ago
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 % .

A mass of 2000 kg. is raised 5.0 m in 10 seconds. What is the potential energy of the mass at this height?
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

98,000J

Explanation:

Given parameters :

Mass = 2000kg

Height = 5m

Time = 10s

P. E = mgh

P. E = 2000x 5x 9.8

P.E = 98,000J

What is the advantage of having nuclear physics?
LekaFEV [45]
Nuclear physics<span> is the study of the protons and neutrons at the centre of an atom and the interactions that hold them together in a space just a few femtometres (10-15 metres) across. It would be advantageous because we understand how atoms behave. Hope this answers the question.</span>

6. An object accelerates from rest to 70 m/s in 3.5 s. What is the acceleration of the object?
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

The acceleration of the object is 20 meters per second square = 20 m/s^2

Explanation:

Recall that acceleration is defined as the change in velocity divided the time it takes for the change. Therefore , if the object accelerates from rest (zero velocity) to 70 m/s , the change in velocity is (70 m/s - 0 m/s = 70 m/s)

which divided by the 3.5 seconds it took for the change, gives:

acceleration = (70 m/s  /  3.5 s ) = 20  m/s^2

makvit [3.9K]

Answer: The force of attraction that holds two molecules is a chemical bond

Explanation:

What is Chemical bonds?

Chemical bonds are forces that hold atoms together to make compounds or molecules.

Types of chemical bonds

Chemical bonds include

1.covalent,

2. polar covalent, and

3. ionic bonds.

Atoms with relatively similar electronegativities share electrons between them and are connected by covalent bonds.

A hollow spherical shell has mass 8.20 kg and radius 0.220 m. It is initially at rest and then rotates about a stationary axis t
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

8.91 J

Explanation:

mass, m = 8.20 kg

radius, r = 0.22 m

Moment of inertia of the shell, I = 2/3 mr^2

                                                    = 2/3 x 8.2 x 0.22 x 0.22 = 0.265 kgm^2

n = 6 revolutions

Angular displacement, θ = 6 x 2 x π = 37.68 rad

angular acceleration, α = 0.890 rad/s^2

initial angular velocity, ωo = 0 rad/s

Let the final angular velocity is ω.

Use third equation of motion

ω² = ωo² + 2αθ

ω² = 0 + 2 x 0.890 x 37.68

ω = 8.2 rad/s

Kinetic energy,

K = \frac{1}{2}I\omega ^{2}

K = 0.5 x 0.265 x 8.2 x 8.2

K = 8.91 J
