What is hydrostatic equilibrium in a star? a) The balance between radiation from the surface and the rotation rate b) The expans

Answer: d) The balance between the force of gravity directed in and thermal pressure directed

Explanation:

Hydrostatic Equilibrium helps to put in perspective star as self- regulating systems . It makes it plain that the energy generated in the star's hot core, is carried outward towards the cooler surface.

Jupiter and Saturn each have the same three basic cloud layers, but the spacing of the layers differs on the two planets. Why is
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

b. Jupiter’s greater gravity has compressed the layers, so they are closer together there.

Explanation:

The value for Jupiter mass is 1.8981×10²⁷kg, while the mass of Saturn is 5.6832×10²⁶kg, so the different layers of clouds in Jupiter will be submitted to a greater gravitational pull because it has a bigger mass, as is established in the law of universal gravitation:

F = G\frac{m1m2}{r^{2}}   (1)

Where m1 and m2 are the masses of two objects, G is the gravitational constant and r is the distance between the two objects.

As it can be seen in equation 1, the gravitational force is directly proportional to the product of the masses of the objects, so if the mass increase the gravitational force will do it too.  

For the case of Saturn, it has a lower mass so its layers of clouds will suffer a weaker gravitational pull. That leads to the three clouds being more spacing that the ones of Jupiter.

The Pony Express
Chapter 1
At A Nation's Crisis
The Pony Express was the first rapid transit and the first fost mail line across the continent from the Missouri River to the Pacific Coast. It was a system
by means of which messages were carried swiftly on horseback across the plains and deserts, and over the mountains of the far West It brought the
Adontic coost and the Pacific slope ten days nearer to each other.
It had a brief existence of only sixteen months and was supplanted by the transcontinental telegraph. Yet it was of the greatest importance in
binding the East and West together at a time when overland travel was slow and cumbersome, and when a great national crisis made the rapid
communication of news between these sections an imperative necessity.
The Pony Express marked the highest development in overland travel prior to the coming of the Pacific railroad, which it preceded nine years.
It, in fact, proved the feasibility of a transcontinental road and demonstrated that such a line could be built and operated continuously the year
around-a feat that had always been regarded as impossible.
The operation of the Pony Express was a supreme achievement of physical endurance on the part of man and his ever faithful companion, the
horse. The history of this organization should be a lasting monument to the physical sacrifice of man and beast in an effort to accomplish
something worthwhile. Its history should be an enduring tribute to American courage and American organizing genius.

Everything on this page is solved with the SAME formula !

             Distance = (speed) x (time) .


Before I get into how to solve each problem, we need to notice that
this whole sheet deals with speed, NOT velocity.

'Velocity' is speed AND THE DIRECTION OF THE  MOTION.
Nothing on this page ever mentions direction, so there's no velocity
anywhere on the page.

Your teacher may not be happy if you talk about this on your homework,
but that's too bad.  Just don't say "velocity" in any of your answers.
Say "speed", and if the teacher complains about that, then it's time to
let the teacher have it with both barrels.
 

1).  Speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

2).  Speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

3).  Distance  =  (average speed of travel) x (time traveling at that speed)

4).  Time to cover the distance = (distance) / (speed)

5).  Car's     speed = (distance the car covered)        / (time the car took)
      Sprinter speed = (distance the sprinter covered) / (time the sprinter took)

      Calculate the car's speed.
      Calculate the sprinter's speed.
     
      ... Look at the two speeds.
          Decide which one is faster.
     
      ... Subtract the slower one from the faster one. 
          The difference is the answer to "by how much?" .

6).  Distance  =  (speed) x (time spent moving at that speed)

7).  Average speed  =  (TOTAL distance covered)
                                      divided by
                                    (time to cover the TOTAL distance).
