Main sequence stars are characterised by the source of their energy.They are all undergoing fusion of hydrogen into helium within their cores. The mass of the star is the main element for such process or phenomenon to take place for it is a determinant of both the rate at which they perform the said activity and the amount of fuel available.
To answer the question, the lower mass limit for a main sequence star is about 0.08. If the mass of a main sequence star is lower than the above-mentioned value, there would be a deficit or insufficiency of gravitational force to generate a standard temperature for hydrogen core fusion to take place and the underdeveloped star would form into a brown dwarf instead.
Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)
change in speed = (ending speed) - (starting speed)
change in speed = (10 m/s) - (2 m/s) = 8 m/s
Acceleration = (8 m/s) / (4 sec)
Acceleration = (8/4) (m/s²)
<em>Acceleration = 2 m/s²</em>
When an object in simple harmonic motion is at its maximum displacement, its <u>acceleration</u> is also at a maximum.
<u><em>Reason</em></u><em>: The speed is zero when the simple harmonic motion is at its maximum displacement, however, the acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. The velocity reverses the direction at that point therefore its rate of change is maximum at that moment. thus the acceleration is at its maximum at this point</em>

Answer: The cylinder
Explanation:
Among all other solid shapes, the sphere has the smallest area for a given volume.
By experiment, the ratio of the radius of a sphere to a cylinder of equal volume is less than 1.
Recall;
That the Rate of transfer of convective heat (Q) = h × A ×change in temperature.
Where ,
h= the co efficient of convective heat transfer
A= the cross sectional area.
As such, since the sphere has a smaller surface area relative to the cylinder, the sphere transfers heat slower than the cylinder.
Therefore, if the sphere and cylinder are exposed to convection in the same environment, then, the cylinder cools faster.
PS; the more the Area, the higher the rate of heat transfer and vice versa.
