Answer: a) The star periodically dims.


A star is the body of gas in which nuclear fusion of gases like helium and hydrogen  takes place due to this reason the star glows or dim. Star gets the ability to generate light because of this nuclear fusion which  cannot be observed in planets although the process of generation of star and planet is the same.  In distantly located star under observation, it's luminosity ( the property of  emitting lighting) is controlled by size of the star, the larger the size of the star it will have greater surface area the more profound will be the nuclear fusion in it and more light will be emitted. Second factor is the gaseous interaction of gases in and around the star and their temperature which causes the change in the light which has to pass through a layer of these gases. Therefore,  the distant star observed will show light fluctuations.

Which of the following statements about the conservation of momentum is not correct? Momentum is conserved for a system of objec
Olin [163]

Answer:

wrong statement :  Momentum is not conserved for a system of objects in a head-on collision.

Explanation:

In a head on collision of two objects , two equal and opposite forces are created at the point of collision . These two forces create two impulses in opposite direction which results in equal and opposite changes in momentum in each of them . Hence net change in momentum is zero. In this way momentum is conserved in head on collision of two objects.

A 65-kg skier grips a moving rope that is powered by an engine and is pulled at a constant speed to the top of a 230 hill. The s
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The required power by the engine is 33.0 hp

Explanation:

Solution

Newton's second law says that, the net force Fnet on an object of mass m will accelerates the object

Where

Fnet = ma

a = acceleration

θ = angle of incline,

m = mass of the 30 skiers,

f = frictional force

N = normal force

mg sinθ, mg cos θ are components of weight skier

F = the force applied by engine

Now,

The skier mass  is 65 kg

We calculate the mass of the 30 skier

m = 30 (65kg) = 1950 kg

Calculate the net force acting on the skiers along the x-axis

Fnet, x=ma

Now,

F-mg sin θ - f = 0

F= mg sin θ + f -----(1)

The kinetic frictional force is denoted by

f = μk N ------(2)

μk = The coefficient of the kinetic friction

We now, calculate the net force acting on the skiers along y axis

Fnet, y = ma

N- mg cos θ = 0

so,

N = mg cos θ

This value is  substituted in equation (2)

f = μk mg cos θ

we substitute the value for equation (1)

F = mg sin θ + μk mg cos θ

mg =  sinθ + μk cos θ)-----(3)

The next step is to calculate the work done by the engine in pulling the skiers, the incline top by applying the equation 3

W = Fx

= mg ( sinθ + μk cos θ)x

x = the displacement

we now substitute 1950 kg for m, 23° for θ, 0.10 for μk and 320m for x

so,

W = mg ( sinθ + μk cos θ)x

= (1950 kg) (9.81 m/s²) (sin 23° + (0.10) cos 23°) (320 m)

= 2.99 * 10 ^6 J

Then,

The time from minute to s is converted

t =(2.0min) ( 60sec/1.0min) = 120 sec

Now we calculate the power needed by the engine to pull the skiers at the incline top

Thus,

P = W/t

we substitute  2.955 * 10 ^6 J for W and  120 s for t

we have,

P = 2.955 * 10 ^ 6 J/ 120 s

= ( 2.4625 * 10 ^ 4 W) (1.0 hp/746 W)

= 33.0 hp

In conclusion the required power by the engine is 33.0 hp

An electric fan is running on HIGH. After fan has been running for 1.3 minutes, the LOW button is pushed. The fan slows down to
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

    wo = 18.75 rev / s

Explanation:

This is an exercise in endowment kinematics, it indicates that the final angular velocity is w_f = 109 rad / s, the time to reach this velocity is t = 1.87 s and the deceleration a = 4.7 rad / s²

         w_f = w₀ - a t

         w₀ = w_f + a t

         w₀ = 109 + 4.7 1.87

         w₀ = 117.8 rad / s

let's reduce to revolutions / s

         w₀ = 117.8 rad / s (1 rev / 2pi rad)

         w₀ = 18.75 rev / s
