Yes! The sun is a star, just like any star you can see in the sky at night. The sun is in the center of our solar system and the closest star to Earth.

Yes it is because it has all the characteristics of one
The sun is unremarkable
There are countless stars with the same attributes as the sun throughout the universe

A train moving with a velocity of 42.9 km/hour North, increases its speed with a uniform acceleration of 0.250 m/s^2 North until

ankoles [38]

Answer:

3658.24m

Explanation:

Hello!

the first thing that we must be clear about is that the train moves with constant acceleration

A body that moves with constant acceleration means that it moves in "a uniformly accelerated motion", which means that if the velocity is plotted with respect to time we will find a line and its slope will be the value of the acceleration, it determines how much it changes the speed with respect to time.

When performing a mathematical demonstration, it is found that the equations that define this movement are as follows.

$\frac {Vf^{2}-Vo^2}{2.a} =X$

Vf = final speed =160km/h=44.4m/s

Vo = Initial speed =42.9km/h=11.92m/s

A = acceleration =0.25m/s^2

X = displacement

solving

$\frac {44.4^{2}-11.92^2}{2.(0.25)} =X\\X=3658.24m$

the distance traveled by the train is 3658.24m

A gas undergoes a process in a piston–cylinder assembly during which the pressure-specific volume relation is pv1.3 = constant.

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Change in specific internal Energy $=250\ \rm Btu/lb$

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the gas, m=0.4 lb
Initial pressure and volume are $p_1=160\ \rm lbf/in^2\ and\ v_1=1\ \rm ft^3\\$

Final pressure and temperature are $p_1=480\ \rm lbf/in^2$
Heat transfer from the gas is 2.1 Btu

Since the process is isotropic we have

$p_1v_1^{1.3}=p_2v_2^{1.3}\\160\times 1^{1.3}=480\times v_2^{1.3}\\v_2=0.43\ \rm ft^3\\$

So the final volume of the gas is calculated.

Work in any isotropic is given by w

$w=\dfrac{p_1v_1-P_2v_2}{n-1}\\\\w=\dfrac{160\times1-480\times0.43}{1.3-1}\\w=-154.67\ \rm Btu\\$

According to the first law of thermodynamics we have

$Q=\Delta U+w\\-2.1=\Delta U-154.67\\\Delta U=152.56\ \rm Btu\\$

So the Specific Internal Change is given by

$\Delta u=\dfrac{\Delta U}{m}\\\Delta u=\dfrac{152.56}{0.4}\\\Delta u=250\ \rm Btu/lb$

So the specific Change in Internal energy is calculated.

Your friend is wearing a red coat. When white light hits the coat, some light is reflected, and some is absorbed.

Vilka [71]

Answer:

Orange , yellow, green and blue

red coat absorbs all colors of visible light except red, so red light

is the only light left to bounce off of the coat toward our eyes.
