Answer: A. spin very rapidly when they're young.

Explanation:

A pulsar (pulsating star) is a neutron star that emits very intense jets of electromagnetic radiation in the range of radio waves, X-rays or gamma rays, at short and periodic intervals due to its intense magnetic field that induces this emission.  

One of its main charateristics is its  rapidly rotation (spin) when this star is young. So, as the star spins, beams of radio radiation from it sweep through space. If one of these beams points toward the Earth, we observe a <u>pulse</u>.  

This is possible when the magnetic pole of the star "points" to the Earth and then stops pointing a thousandth of a second later due to the fast rotation of the star, appearing again when the same pole returns to point towards Earth.

A constant force of 12N is applied for 3.0s to a body initially at rest. The final velocity of the body is 6.0ms–1. What is the
sp2606 [1]
From the question,
u = 0m {s}^{ - 1}
v = 6m {s}^{ - 1}

t = 3s
F=12N



Using Impulse, the product of the constant force, F and time t equals the product of the mass of the body and change in velocity.

Ft =m(v-u)


12(3.0)=m(6.0- \: 0)
This implies that

36.0 = 6m
m =  \frac{36.0}{6.0}
\therefore \: m = 6.0kg


You can also use the equation of linear motion,
v = u + at
6 = 0 + a(3)
6 = 3a
a =  \frac{6}{3}

a = 2 {ms}^{ - 2}
But
F=ma
12 = m(2)
12 = 2m
\frac{12}{2}  = m
\therefore \: m = 6kg

Suppose a grower sprays (2.2x10^1) kg of water at 0 °C onto a fruit tree of mass 180 kg. How much heat is released by the water
Bond [772]

There is no temperature change which drives heat flow, thus no heat will be released by the water.

<h3>Heat released by the water when it freezes</h3>

The heat released by the water when it freezes is calculated as follows;

Q = mcΔФ

where;

  • m is mass of water
  • c is specific heat capacity of water
  • ΔФ is change in temperature = Фf - Фi

Initial temperature of water, Фi = 0 °C

when water freezes, the final temperature, Фf = 0 °C

Q = 22 x 4200 x (0 - 0)

Q = 0

Since there is no temperature change which drives heat flow, thus no heat will be released by the water.

A dust particle with mass of 5.4×10−2 g and a charge of 2.3×10−6 C is in a region of space where the potential is given by V(x)=
user100 [1]

Answer:

1.6 m/s^2

Explanation:

Hello!

To calculate the acceleration we must know the electric field. The electric field and the potential are related by:

E = -\frac{dV}{dx} =- 2.6(\frac{V}{m^{2}})x + 8.1(\frac{V}{m^{3}})x^{2}

If the particle starts at 2.3m, the electric field is:

E = 36.869 V/m = 36.869 N/C

So, the force on the particle is:

F = q E =  2.3×10^−6 C * 36.869 N/C = 8.48 x 10^-5 N

And its acceleration is :

a = F/m =  8.48 x 10^-5 N / 5.4×10−5 kg = 1.57 m/s^2

Rounded to two significant figures:

1.6 m/s^2
