Arte-miy333 [17]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

100 times

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • The largest stars are 100 times the mass of the Sun.
  • <u>The giant stars are about 10 to 100 times the radius of the sun</u>, which means they are 100 times brighter than the sun.
  • <em><u>The largest known star in terms of mass and brightness is known as the Pistol Star. It is believed to be 100 times as massive as our Sun, and 10,000,000 times as bright.</u></em>

Normal atmospheric pressure is 1.013 105 Pa. The approach of a storm causes the height of a mercury barometer to drop by 27.1 mm
Burka [1]

Answer:

The atmospheric pressure is 0.97622\times10^{5}\ Pa.

Explanation:

Given that,

Atmospheric pressure P_{atm}= 1.013\times10^{5}\ Pa    

drop height h'= 27.1 mm

Density of mercury \rho= 13.59 g/cm^3

We need to calculate the height

Using formula of pressure

p = \rho g h

Put the value into the formula

1.013\times10^{5}=13.59\times10^{3}\times9.8\times h

h =\dfrac{1.013\times10^{5}}{13.59\times10^{3}\times9.8}

h=0.76\ m

We need to calculate the new height

h''=h - h'

h''=0.76-27.1\times10^{-3}

h''=0.76-0.027

h''=0.733\ m

We need to calculate the atmospheric pressure

Using formula of atmospheric pressure

P=\rho g h

Put the value into the formula

P= 13.59\times10^{3}\times9.8\times0.733

P=0.97622\times10^{5}\ Pa

Hence, The atmospheric pressure is 0.97622\times10^{5}\ Pa.

The true brightness of an object is called its
g100num [7]
<span>The true brightness of an object is called its luminosity. It is the total amount of energy emitted by bright or meteorological objects over a period of time. It has the SI unit of joules per second or watts. So the answer is letter A. Intensity is the measure of how strong the substance or object is when it projects something. Magnitude is a measure of how great is the size the object produces. Viscosity is the measure of flow of a substance.</span>

How much work would be needed to raise the payload from the surface of the moon (i.e., x = r) to an altitude of 5r miles above t
Cloud [144]

Let the data is as following

mass of payload = "m"

mass of Moon = "M"

now we know that we place the payload from the position on the surface of moon to the position of 5r from the surface

So in this case we can say that change in the gravitational potential energy is equal to the work done to move the mass from one position to other

so it is given by

W = U_f - U_i

we know that

U_f = -\frac{GMm}{6r}

U_i = -\frac{GMm}{r}

now from above formula

W = -\frac{GMm}{6r} + \frac{GMm}{r}

W = \frac{5GMm}{6r}

so above is the work done to move the mass from surface to given altitude
