The melting of polar ice caps is an example of the interaction between the atmosphere and cryosphere.

Answer: A

 Atmosphere is a layer of gases surrounding the earth, while cryosphere are all parts of the Earth where water is in solid form, including sea ice, lake ice, river ice, snow cover, glaciers, ice caps, ice sheets, and frozen ground.

Two neutron stars are separated by a distance of 1.0 x 1012 m. They each have a mass of 1.0 x 1028 kg and a radius of 1.0 x 103
son4ous [18]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Gravitational Potential Energy.

Gravitational potential energy can be defined as

PE = -\frac{GMm}{R}

As M=m, then

PE = -\frac{Gm^2}{R}

Where,

m = Mass

G =Gravitational Universal Constant

R = Distance /Radius

PART A) As half its initial value is u'=2u, then

U = -\frac{2Gm^2}{R}

dU = -\frac{2Gm^2}{R}

dKE = -dU

Therefore replacing we have that,

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 =\frac{Gm^2}{2R}

Re-arrange to find v,

v= \sqrt{\frac{Gm}{R}}

v = \sqrt{\frac{6.67*10^{-11}*1*10^{28}}{1*10^{12}}}

v = 816.7m/s

Therefore the  velocity when the separation has decreased to one-half its initial value is 816m/s

PART B) With a final separation distance of 2r, we have that

2r = 2*10^3m

Therefore

dU = Gm^2(\frac{1}{R}-\frac{1}{2r})

v = \sqrt{Gm(\frac{1}{2r}-\frac{1}{R})}

v = \sqrt{6.67*10^{-11}*10^{28}(\frac{1}{2*10^3}-\frac{1}{10^{12}})}

v = 1.83*10^7m/s

Therefore the velocity when they are about to collide is 1.83*10^7m/s

Help on finding kinetic energy??
Jobisdone [24]
Trick question? In order to have kinetic energy, an object must be moving. Therefore, in this case, kinetic energy would be 0. If it were asking about potential energy, it would be a different story.

What type of energy does a pv cell create ?
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:  Solar Photovoltaic (PV) cells generate electricity by absorbing sunlight and using that light energy to create an electrical current. There are many PV cells within a single solar panel, and the current created by all of the cells together adds up to enough electricity to help power your school, home and businesses.

What is the most likely place for a star to begin to form?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Stars are born within the clouds of dust and scattered throughout most galaxies. Deep within these clouds, turbulence creates knots with enough mass to cause the gas and dust to collapse under its own gravitational force.
