In cosmology, a view that the universe is always expanding but maintaining a constant average density, with matter being continuously created to form new stars and galaxies at the same rate that old ones become unobservable as a consequence of their increasing distance and velocity of recession.

Answer:

A theory explaining the model of the Universe.

Explanation:

Steady State theory, proposed in 1948 by Sir Hermann Bondi, Thomas Gold, and Sir Fred Hoyle, suggests that the universe is always expanding while maintaining a constant average density. This is achieved as matter is continuously created to form new stars and galaxies at the same rate as that of old ones becoming non-observable. This occurs as a consequence of increasing distance and velocity of recession of old stars and galaxies.

As per this theory, Universe has no beginning and no end in time. If looked at it from a grand scale, the arrangement of galaxies and average density remain same.

Later observation of the Universe gave results contradictory to Steady State Theory. This has led to increase in support of Big Bang Model of the Universe.

For the sun, which is the final step in core fusion?

Marina86 [1]

The answer would be stage of conversion of Hydrogen to Helium.
At the end of this phase, the helium content of the suns will have the popping effect where more and more helium is now on the core resulting to higher temp and density as helium converted from hydrogen is much heavier.

A pilot drops a bomb from a plane flying horizontally with constant velocity. When the bomb hits the ground, the horizontal loca

polet [3.4K]

Answer: The horizontal location of the plane will BE OVER THE BOMB

Explanation:

As soon as the bomb was dropped, the bomb will fall under gravity (free fall) and the location of the plane continues to increase horizontally till the bomb reaches the ground which is a falling distance to be travelled by the bomb at 9.8m/s²

The velocity of blood flow is ________. A) in direct proportion to the total cross-sectional area of the blood vessels B) slower

Leto [7]

Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

The velocity at which blood flows in the blood vessels is inversely proportional to the total cross-sectional area of the blood vessels present in the body. This means that if the cross sectional area of the vessels low, then there will be high rate of blood flow, and vice versa. This blood flow is minimum in the case of capillaries, where it gets enough time for the exchanging of essential nutrients as well as gases.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

A 12.0 kg rock slides off the edge of a bridge and falls into the water 25.0 meters below. what is the kinetic energy of the roc

Pavel [41]

During the fall, all the initial potential energy of the rock
$U=mgh$
has converted into kinetic energy of motion
$K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2$
where h is the initial height of the rock, m its mass, and v its velocity just before hitting the water. So, for energy conservation, we have
$U=K$
and so we can find the value of K, the kinetic energy of the rock just before hitting the ground:
$K=U=mgh = (12.0 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(25.0 m)=2943 J$
