Describe several characteristics that distinguish population I stars from population II stars.

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

Population I stars are usually the blue younger stars. They orbit in the disk and they are relatively rich in metals. Population II stars are the red, older stars that lies in the bulge and halo of the Galaxy. They orbits in the elliptical orbits in the halo.

Population I stars include the sun and tend to be luminous, hot and young, concentrated in the disks of spiral galaxies. They are particularly found in the spiral arms. while, Population II stars tend to be found in globular clusters and the nucleus of a galaxy. They tend to be older, less luminous and cooler than Population I stars. They have fewer heavy elements.

The process of finding objects by emitting sounds and interpreting their reflections is called

ddd [48]

Echolocation is the process of finding objects by emitting sounds and interpreting their reflections. This process uses echo. When sound is produced, it travels and hits an object. Sound bounces off the object and is reflected back. The echo produced helps to identify the location of the object and even size of the object. Echolocation is used by animals such as bats and dolphins to navigate and also hunt.

How much water can be held by a cylindrical tank with a radius of 12 feet and a height of 30 feet? A. 2,260.8 cubic feet B. 13,5

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Volume, V = 13564.8 cubic feet

Explanation:

It is given that,

Radius of the cylindrical tank, r = 12 feet

Height of the tank, h = 30 feet

We need to find the water that can be held by a cylindrical tank i.e. we need to find the volume of the tank. It is given by :

$V=\pi\times r^2\times h$

$V=3.14\times (12)^2\times 30$

V = 13564.8 cubic feet

So, the water held by the tank is 13564.8 cubic feet. Hence, this is the required solution.

a current of 5 ampere is passed for 2 hours in an electric iron having a resistance of 100 ohms calculate the heat produced

Alina [70]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf Heat \ produced \ (H) = 5 \ kWh}$

Given:

Resistance (R) = 100 Ω

Current (I) = 5 A

Time (t) = 2 hours

To Find:

Heat developed (H) in the electric iron

Explanation:

Formula:

$\boxed{ \bold{ \sf H = I^2Rt}}$

Substituting values of I, R & t in the equation:

$\sf \implies H = {5}^{2} \times 100 \times 2 \\ \\ \sf \implies H = 25 \times 100 \times 2 \\ \\ \sf \implies H = 5000 \\ \\ \sf \implies H = 5 \: kWh$

$\therefore$

Heat developed (H) in the electric iron = 15 kWh

Two asteroids are found at the same distance from the Sun. However, one asteroid is twice as massive the other. According to New

astraxan [27]

Answer:

IS TWICE THAT OF THE GRAVITATIONAL FORCE BETWEEN THE SMALLER ASTEROID AND THE SUN

Explanation:

The equation for gravitational force is:

$F = G * \frac{m1 * m2}{r^2}$

where G is the gravitational constant.

Given that distance remains constant, and the mass of the bigger asteroid is bigger, we can get the following relation:

$G * \frac{2*m1 * m2}{r^2} = G * \frac{m1 * m2}{r^2}$

Here we can see that multiplying the mass by 2 gives us 2 times the gravitational force for the bigger asteroid.

Thus, the gravitational force for the bigger asteroid and the sun is two times that of the smaller asteroid and the sun.
