C. hydrogen accreted onto a white dwarf from a close companion rapidly fuses to helium, releasing a large amount of energy.

The accreted material, composed mainly of hydrogen, is compacted on the surface of the white dwarf due to the intense gravitational force on that place. As material accumulates, The white dwarf becomes increasingly hot, until it reaches the critical temperature for ignition of nuclear fusion.

As SCUBA divers go deeper underwater, the pressure from the weight of all the water above them increases tremendously which comp
slavikrds [6]

Answer: A.

As a diver rises, the pressure on their body decreases which allows the volume of the gas to decrease.

Explanation:

The problem is that a diver, experiences an increased pressure of water compresses nitrogen and more of it dissolves into the body. Just as there is a natural nitrogen saturation point at the surface, there are saturation points under water. Those depend on the depth, the type of body tissue involved, and also how long a diver is exposed to the extra pressure. The deeper a diver go, the more nitrogen the body absorbs.

The problem is getting rid of the nitrogen once you ascend again. As the pressure diminishes, nitrogen starts dissolving out of the tissues of the diver's body, a process called "off-gassing." That results in tiny nitrogen bubbles that then get carried to the lungs and breathed out. However, if there is too much nitrogen and/or it is released too quickly, small bubbles can combine to form larger bubbles, and those can do damage to the body, anything from minor discomforts all the way to major problems and even death.

A salt shaker sits 0.102 m from
Ivahew [28]

The maximum speed is 0.55 m/s

Explanation:

For an object in uniform circular motion, the force of friction between the object and the ground provides the centripetal force required to keep the body in motion. Therefore we can write:

\mu_s mg = m\frac{v^2}{r}

where the term on the left is the frictional force and the term on the right is the centripetal force, and where

\mu_s is the coefficient of static friction

m is the mass of the body

g is the gravitational acceleration

v is the speed of the body

r is the radius of the circular path

In this problem, we have:

\mu_s = 0.307

r = 0.102 m

g=9.8 m/s^2

Substituting and re-arranging, we find the maximum speed v at which the salt shaker can rotate:

v=\sqrt{\mu gr}=\sqrt{(0.307)(9.8)(0.102)}=0.55 m/s
