What population of stars does our star belong to?

Physics
1 answer:
Dvinal [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Our star ,that is, Sun belong to Population I.

Explanation:

In  1940s, stars were divided into two categories by Wlter Baade:

a. Population I (Metal-rich)

b. Population II (Metal-poor)

Population I stars tend to be luminous, concentrated in the disks of spiral galaxies. They are still hot and young containing rich amount of heavy metals.

Sun falls in this category.

Population II stars tend to be less luminous found in the nucleus of the galaxy.

They are less hot. They are poor in heavy metals because they are old.

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

A) 3.13 m/s

B) 5.34 N

C) W = 26.9 J

Explanation:

We are told that the position as a function of time is given by;

x(t) = αt² + βt³

Where;

α = 0.210 m/s² and β = 2.04×10^(−2) m/s³ = 0.0204 m/s³

Thus;

x(t) = 0.21t² + 0.0204t³

A) Velocity is gotten from the derivative of the displacement.

Thus;

v(t) = x'(t) = 2(0.21t) + 3(0.0204t²)

v(t) = 0.42t + 0.0612t²

v(4.5) = 0.42(4.5) + 0.0612(4.5)²

v(4.5) = 3.1293 m/s ≈ 3.13 m/s

B) acceleration is gotten from the derivative of the velocity

a(t) = v'(t) = 0.42 + 2(0.0612t)

a(4.5) = 0.42 + 2(0.0612 × 4.5)

a(4.5) = 0.9708 m/s²

Force = ma = 5.5 × 0.9708

F = 5.3394 N ≈ 5.34 N

C) Since no friction, work done is kinetic energy.

Thus;

W = ½mv²

W = ½ × 5.5 × 3.1293²

W = 26.9 J

A horse travels 80 meters south in 20 seconds. What is its average velocity?
AURORKA [14]

Average velocity is a vector unit (i.e. includes magnitude <em>and </em>direction) calculated by working out distance ÷ time:

80 metres ÷ 20 seconds = 4 metres/seconds (m/s)

Therefore, your final answer is C. 4 m/s south.

If you fall and skid to a stop on a carpeted floor, you can get a rug burn. Much of this discomfort comes from abrasion,but ther
just olya [345]

Explanation:

When you run, your body has a kinetic energy  and when you fall while running, the friction between the carpet and your foot, transforms the kinetic energy into thermal energy or heat energy. This can even cause, real burn if the skin were too hot.

a baby carriage is sitting on the top of a hill that is 21 m high. the carriage with a baby 75kg. the carriage has what energy?
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

It has potential energy

PE = 15450.75 J

Explanation:

we know its potential energy because the carriage is not moving, although it can

PE = mgh

in this case, m is 75, h is 21, and g is always 9.81

plug these in: PE = (75) (21) (9.81)

your answer: PE = 15450.75 J
