Diffinition of nebula

nebulae, nebulæ, or nebulas) is an interstellar cloud of dust, hydrogen, helium and other ionized gases. Originally, nebula was a name for any diffuse astronomical object, including galaxies beyond the Milky Way. The Andromeda Galaxy, for instance, was once referred to as the Andromeda Nebula (and spiral galaxies in general as "spiral nebulae") before the true nature of galaxies was confirmed in the early 20th century by Vesto Slipher, Edwin Hubble and others.

Most nebulae are of vast size, even hundreds of light years in diameter.[3] Although denser than the space surrounding them, most nebulae are far less dense than any vacuum created on Earth – a nebular cloud the size of the Earth would have a total mass of only a few kilograms. Many nebulae are visible due to their fluorescence caused by the embedded hot stars, while others are so diffuse they can only be detected with long exposures and special filters. Some nebulae, are variably illuminated by T Tauri variable stars. Nebulae are often star-forming regions, such as in the "Pillars of Creation" in the Eagle Nebula. In these regions the formations of gas, dust, and other materials "clump" together to form denser regions, which attract further matter, and eventually will become dense enough to form stars. The remaining material is then believed to form planets and other planetary system objects.

The range of objects called nebula are very diverse, have diverse origins, and final ends.

Malia has developed Type II Diabetes. When she eats, her body
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

The correct option is c.

Explanation:

Metabolism is a sum of anabolic and catabolic reactions. The body's inability to produce/synthesize enough insulin is the cause of type II diabetes. Generally, metabolism is the process in which most compounds (proteins, carbohydrates and lipids) are produced (anabolism) or broken down (catabolism) in the body. Insulin is a protein that can be produced in less amount due to metabolic disorder in the body.

Maria's disease means she already has an exponentially high amount of blood sugar against the required insulin to balance it out, hence the disease already slowed down her rate of metabolism (catabolism) of blood sugar EXCEPT she decides to increase of metabolism by medication and exercise.

A ball is thrown vertically upwards with a velocity
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Explanation:

The acceleration of gravity is 9.8m/s^2.

So to calculate the time it will take to make the ball stop(which btw means the ball now reach its greatest height), use the formula V1=V0+at. V1 is the final velocity(which is 0), V0 is the starting velocity(which is 30m/s), and the a(cceleration) is 9.8m/s^2.

(You can ignore the fact "at" is -30 instead 30, it's because the directions two velocity travel are opposite. )

We can now know the time it takes to make the ball stop just by the gravitational force is about 3 sec.

Use another formula S=1/2at^2, to find out the S(height) is 1/2*9.8*3^2=44.1, which is approximately D.45m .

The current in two identical light bulbs connected in series is 0. 25 A. The voltage across both bulbs is 110 V. The resistance
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

220 ohms

Explanation:

I = V / R

0.25 = 110 / R

R = 110 / 0.25

R = 440 ohms

Equivalent resistance = 440 ohms

Resistance of single light bulb = Equivalent resistance / number of bulbs

= 440 / 2

= 220 ohms
