Heavier elements require higher temperatures to fuse. After stars run out of hydrogen in their cores, they leave the main sequen

ce, collapse, and eventually get hot enough to fuse the helium in their cores into carbon. As discussed in the previous chapter, the Sun will never get hot enough to fuse carbon.Which of these hypothetical situations would allow the temperature of the Sun's core to rise enough for carbon fusion to be possible?Choose one:A. Add mass to the Sun.B. Increase the radius of the Sun.C. Convert all of the Sun's hydrogen into carbon.D. Decrease the radius of the Sun.

Answer:

A. Add mass to the Sun.

Explanation:

A. Add mass to the Sun.

Adding mass will make to take more time for the hydrogen to run out and hence, enough temperature will be developed to fuse helium atom into other heavier elements, and eventually get hot enough to fuse the helium in their cores into carbon.

The only hypothetical solution is that we need to add Mass to the Sun.

Does the shape of molecule affect the chemical bond?​
just olya [345]

There is a sharp distinction between ionic and covalent bonds when the geometric arrangements of atoms in compounds are considered. In essence, ionic bonding is nondirectional, whereas covalent bonding is directional.

The forces exerted by Earth and a skier become an action-reaction force pair when the skier pushes the ski poles against Earth.
Mnenie [13.5K]

Because of the earth's large mass and solid structure, the skier moves but the earth does not.

<h3>Why can't the earth be moved?</h3>
  • Because the Earth is such a massive body, it cannot be moved by applying force to it. Because it cannot be moved with a small amount of force
  • The amount of matter contained in an object is what gives it inertia, or the tendency of matter to remain at rest if at rest, or to continue moving in the same direction at the same speed if moving.
  • The greater an object's mass, the greater its gravitational force.
  • Mass is the quantity that is solely determined by an object's inertia. The greater an object's inertia, the greater its mass.
  • A heavier object is more likely to resist changes in its state of motion.
  • we can conclude that the skier moves but the earth does not due to the large mass of the earth and its solid structure.

How are weathering, erosion, and deposition related to the rock cycle
xenn [34]

Answer:

Erosion is the process by which natural forces move weathered rock and soil from one place to another. Gravity, running water, glaciers, waves, and wind all cause erosion. The material moved by erosion is sediment. Deposition occurs when the agents (wind or water) of erosion lay down sediment.
