Why is iron significant to understanding how a supernova occurs?
Vilka [71]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Iron cannot release energy by fusion.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Supernovae are some of the most magnificent events in the cosmos. When a massive star dies, it can result in a spectacular explosion many times that of man's total nuclear arsenal.
  • When a star has used up all the lighter elements and has just iron left, it has no more nuclear "fuel". That causes the star to contract then explode very violently as a supernova.

How can you convert Saturn radii to kilometers?
enot [183]

Multiply (Saturn radii) by (60,268) to get the distance in kilometers.

(This is the radius of the planet, not it's orbit.)

Julianne went to a restaurant to have a taste of her favorite fried chicken and spaghetti. She drove 2 km, east and then 8.5 km,
GREYUIT [131]

Julianne’s displacement from her origin is equal to 10.015 kilometers.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

  • Distance A = 2 km, East.
  • Distance B = 8.5 km, Northeast.

To calculate Julianne’s displacement from her origin:

<h3>How to calculate displacement.</h3>

We would denote the two (2) unit vectors along the East and Northeast directions by i and j respectively.

<u>Note:</u> Northeast is at angle of 45° with the East.

In terms of vectors, the distances becomes:

Distance A = 2i

Distance\;B=8.5 [(cos 45i + sin 45j)]\\\\Distance\;B=(\frac{8.5}{\sqrt{2} } i \;+\;\frac{8.5}{\sqrt{2} } j)

<u>For the </u><u>resultant displacement</u><u>:</u>

D^2 = [(2+\frac{8.5}{\sqrt{2} } )^2+ (\frac{8.5}{\sqrt{2} } )^2\\\\D =\sqrt{[(2+\frac{8.5}{\sqrt{2} } )^2+ (\frac{8.5}{\sqrt{2} } )^2} \\\\D=2+\frac{8.5}{\sqrt{2} } + \frac{8.5}{\sqrt{2} }

D = 10.015 kilometers.

Given the equation p2 = a3, what is the orbital period, in days, for the planet venus? (venus is located 0.72 au from the sun?)
melisa1 [442]

The correct answer is 223 days.

The relationship between the duration of revolution and the separation between the sun is shown by Kepler's third law. Using the notions of circular motion and the gravitational and centripetal forces, we may obtain this equation.

According to Kepler's third rule, the semi-major axis of an orbit is linked to the orbital period of a planet around the sun as follows:

p² = a³

where an is the semi-major axis/distance to the star and p is the orbital period in years.

It is said that a = 0.72 AU for Venus.

P= √(0.72 AU)^3 = 0.61 years.

365 days in a year = 222.9 ≈ 223 days.
