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.
B
Think of inertia of getting into a car accident without a seat belt although the car stops you will not you would likely fly out the window
The question is about unclear since no picture provided. But from the question, it could be guessed that the box is moving back and forth on the frictionless plane at the amplitude of A in simple harmonic motion.
Answer:
D. At x=0, it's acceleration is at a maximum
Explanation:
As the box move forward, it reaches point A and than move backward. Theoretically, the box will move backwards, through its origin, to point -A and then going forward.
Point A is the maximum displacement of the box in this case. At this point, the box instantaneously stop to go backward. Therefore the velocity at that moment is zero.
From point -A, the box travel forward and keep building up speed due to the release in potential energy of the spring. And at point x=0, the velocity become maximum. After point x=0, the velocity of the box slows down due to the conversion of kinetic energy to potential energy of the spring. And as it reaches point A, it reaches zero velocity.
The same can be said as the box travels backward from point A to -A
Answer:
They two waves has the same amplitude and frequency but different wavelengths.
Explanation: comparing the wave equation above with the general wave equation
y(x,t) = Asin(2Πft + 2Πx/¶)
Let ¶ be the wavelength
A is the amplitude
f is the frequency
t is the time
They two waves has the same amplitude and frequency but different wavelengths.
