The relation between temperature and pressure is called the "equation of state of the gas". or "Hydrostatic equilibrium in ordinary star". Take for example a balloon, it will have a larger spherical shape, if the pressure inside exerted by the gas on a wall of a balloon balance the inward force exerted by the outside atmospheric pressure.  In a dying star which is being compressed by gravity, the gas is being squeezed so the molecules is moving rapidly, resulting to a very high temperature, and this provide a balance that counteract or balances the compressive force of gravity. The very high temperature inside the star is needed to balance the force of gravity, and it is provide by "nuclear fusion energy" or else the star would collapse under the force of gravity. Depending on the size or mass of the star, it will either become, a "neutron star" or a "black hole".

Answer:  Hydro-static Equilibrium

Explanation:

A fluid in its stable rest state is said to have hydro-static equilibrium. A star is composed of gases mainly hydrogen and helium. It is huge in size and mass. It does not collapses under its own weight because of the pressure exerted outwards by the ongoing nuclear fusion reaction in its core which balances the gravitational force. Thus, a star maintains a state of hydro-static equilibrium.

A boy is playing with a ball of mass 72g attached to a string. He is moving it at constant speed in a horizontal circle of radiu
irina [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

radius of circle r = 0.9 m.

(a ) In a motion on circular path , work done is zero because force ( centripetal force ) acts perpendicular to displacement .

( b )

Tension in string T = m ω²r

Putting the values

60 = .072 x ω² x 0.9

ω² = 926

ω = 30.4 rad /s

angle made in 20 revolutions θ = 20 x 2π = 126.6 rad

time taken = θ / ω

= 126.6 / 30.4

= 4.16 s .

Why is the motion of an athlete moving along the circular path with Constant speed considered to be an accelerated motion?
Strike441 [17]

The speed is changing its direction all the time. There is an acceleration which changes the direction of the speed – that is called centripetal acceleration. Only uniform linear motions are considered to have no acceleration.

This is the general formula for acceleration

a = dv/dt

When calculating dv, you should keep in mind the change in the velocity vector’s direction. You can easily see in a graph that with dt tending to 0 (so the length of the arc covered is also tending to 0), the difference between vectors Vf and V0 has a direction which is perpendicular to velocity (the shorter the arc, the closest the angle is to 90 degrees).

There is a formula (which can be deducted from the previous formula) which allows you to calculate the acceleration:

a = v^2/r

Let’s talk about the units:

v is in m/s

r is in m

so v^2/r

is in (m/s)^2/m = (m^2/s^2)/m = m/s^2

which is the same unit as dv/dt:

dv/dt = (m/s)/s= m/s^2

How does frequency relate to pitch?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
The sensation of a frequency is commonly referred to as the pitch of a sound. A high pitch sound corresponds to a high frequency sound wave and a low pitch sound corresponds to a low frequency sound wave. ... That is, two sound waves sound good when played together if one sound has twice the frequency of the other.
