What are stars made from

1 answer:

3 0

Stars are made of very hot gas. This gas is mostly hydrogen and helium, which are the two lightest elements. Stars shine by burning hydrogen into helium in their cores, and later in their lives create heavier elements.

A pair of toy freight cars, one twice the mass of the other, fly apart when a compressed spring that joins them is released. Acc

saul85 [17]

Answer:

greater acceleration is experienced by the car with lower mass

Explanation:

Since both the toys are connected by same spring so the force due to spring on both the toys will be same and it is given as

$F = kx$

now we know by Newton's II law

$F = ma$

so here we have

$a = \frac{F}{m}$

here we have same force on both the blocks

so acceleration will be more if mass is less

so greater acceleration is experienced by the car with lower mass

g You drop a 3.6-kg ball from a height of 3.5 m above one end of a uniform bar that pivots at its center. The bar has mass 9.9 k

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

h = 3.5 m

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the final speed of the ball when it collides with a seesaw. Using the third equation of motion:

$2gh = v_f^2 - v_i^2\\$

where,

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = height = 3.5 m

vf = final speed = ?

vi = initial speed = 0 m/s

Therefore,

$(2)(9.81\ m/s^2)(3.5\ m) = v_f^2 - (0\ m/s)^2\\v_f = \sqrt{68.67\ m^2/s^2}\\v_f = 8.3\ m/s$

Now, we will apply the law of conservation of momentum:

$m_1v_1 = m_2v_2$

where,

m₁ = mass of colliding ball = 3.6 kg

m₂ = mass of ball on the other end = 3.6 kg

v₁ = vf = final velocity of ball while collision = 8.3 m/s

v₂ = vi = initial velocity of other end ball = ?

Therefore,

$(3.6\ kg)(8.3\ m/s)=(3.6\ kg)(v_i)\\v_i = 8.3\ m/s$

Now, we again use the third equation of motion for the upward motion of the ball:

$2gh = v_f^2 - v_i^2\\$

where,

g = acceleration due to gravity = -9.81 m/s² (negative for upward motion)

h = height = ?

vf = final speed = 0 m/s

vi = initial speed = 8.3 m/s

Therefore,

$(2)(9.81\ m/s^2)h = (0\ m/s)^2-(8.3\ m/s)^2\\$

"a musical tone sounded on a piano has a frequency of 261.6 hz and a wavelength of 1.31 m. what is the speed of the sound wave

Andreyy89

To solve this question, we use the wave equation which is:
C=f*λ
where:
C is the speed;
f is the frequency;
λ is the wavelength
So in this case, plugging in our values in the problem. This will give us:
C = 261.6Hz × 1.31m
= 342.696 m/s is the answer.
