: match each description below with the type of star that is described. You may assume that all of the stars described have appr

oximately the same mass as the Sun. This is an adaptation of Thought Question 16, page 847 in OpenStax Astronomy. A. A star with no nuclear reactions going on in the core, which is made primarily of carbon and oxygen B. A star of uniform composition from center to surface; it contains hydrogen but has no nuclear reactions going on in the core. C. A star that is fusing hydrogen to form helium in its core. D. A star that is fusing helium to carbon in the core and hydrogen to helium in a shell around the core.

Explanation:

A. White Dwarf: It is the end stage of a Sun-like star. At the end the red giant star will throw away the outer layers in the form a shell and in the center a hot and bright core will remain. This core consists of carbon and oxygen but the conditions are not suitable to start the fusion of carbon and oxygen.

B. Protostar: It is the initial stage of a star. Here the fuel is available but still the temperature and pressure are not enough to start the nuclear fusion.

C. Main Sequence Star: A star that is fusing Hydrogen in the core to make Helium and releasing the energy in this process. Sun is currently in its main sequence stage. A star spend 90% of its lifetime in main sequence stage.

D. Red Giant Star: In such stars, the hydrogen has been exhausted and only Helium is left. As the core starts contracting under gravity, the conditions are apt for the fusion of Helium to begin. Helium starts fusing to make carbon while in the outer layer Hydrogen to Helium process goes on. As a result the star expands.

When the termination is a terminal block, care must be taken to ensure a good electrical connection without damaging the conduct
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

When the termination is a terminal block, care must be taken to ensure a good electrical connection without damaging the conductor. Terminals should not be used for more than one

Explanation:

The Terminal block being a modular block, having insulated frame, which can secure more than two wires in it. It has a conducting strip in it. These terminal clocks helps in making the connection safer as well as organised. These terminal blocks are used for power distribution in safer way. Its potential is it can distribute power from single to multiple output. The conductor is used for making it proper contact.

imagine riding a single-speed bicycle. why do you have to push harders on the pedals to start the bicycle moving than to keep it
Flura [38]
A large force is required to accelerate the mass of the bicycle and rider. Once the desired constant velocity is reached, a much smaller force is sufficient to overcome the ever-present frictional forces.

Water flowing from a waterfall before it hits the pond below?
anastassius [24]

Answer:

Kinetic Energy

Explanation:

Ang prinsipyo ay nagsasaad na ang enerhiya ay hindi maaaring malikha o masira, ngunit maaari lamang ma-convert mula sa isang anyo patungo sa isa pa. Ang tubig sa tuktok ng napakataas na talon ay nagtataglay ng gravitational potential energy. Habang bumabagsak ang tubig, ang enerhiya na ito ay na-convert sa kinetic energy, na nagreresulta sa isang daloy sa isang mataas na bilis.
