Answer:

Black Hole

Explanation:

A black hole is a very dense and massive stellar object, which has a field of gravity so large that not even light can escape it.

Since it does not emit light, <u>we cannot see them directly</u>, hence the name of black hole.

So in this case,<u> if the object has a mass of 8 solar masses that is enough to form a black hole</u>, and <u>also cannot be seen</u>, all of this indicates that the object we are talking about is a black hole.

It should be mentioned that although these objects do not emit light, because it cannot escape due to the immense force of gravity, black holes can be detected by a type of radiation emitted on their event horizon due to quantum effects called Hawking radiation .

A 1451 kg car is traveling at 48.0 km/h. How much kinetic energy does it possess? K.E. =
jarptica [38.1K]

           Kinetic energy  =  (1/2) (mass) (speed)²

BUT . . . in order to use this equation just the way it's written,
the speed has to be in meters per second.  So we'll have to
make that conversion.

        KE  =  (1/2) · (1,451 kg) · (48 km/hr)² · (1000 m/km)² · (1 hr/3,600 sec)²

               =  (725.5) · (48 · 1000 · 1 / 3,600)²  (kg) · (km·m·hr / hr·km·sec)²

               =  (725.5) · ( 40/3 )²  ·  ( kg·m² / sec²)

               =    128,978  joules  (rounded)

What is the freezing point of an aqueous solution that boils at 101 degrees C? Kfp = 1.86 K/m and Kbp = 0.512 K/m. Enter your an
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

-3.63 degree Celsius

Explanation:

We are given that

Boiling point of solution=T_b=101^{\circ} C

Boiling point water=100 degree Celsius

K_f=1.86K/m

K_b=0.512 K/m

\Delta T_b=T-T_0

Where T=Boiling point of solution

T_0=Boiling point of pure solvent

\Delta T_b=101-100=1^{\circ}C

\Delta T_b=k_bm

Using the formula

1=0.512\times m

Molality,m=\frac{1}{0.512} m

\Delta T_f=k_fm

Using the formula

\Delta T_f=\frac{1}{0.512}\times 1.86

\Delta T_f=3.63 C

We know that

\Delta T_f=T_0-T_1

Where T_0 =Freezing point of solvent

T_1= Freezing point of solution

Using the formula

3.63=0-T_1

Freezing point of water=0 degree Celsius

T_1=0-3.63=-3.63 C

Hence, the freezing point of solution=-3.63 degree Celsius

Use newton's first law of motion to explain why you feel tossed around whenever a roller coaster goes over a hill or through a l
ikadub [295]
Newton's first law states that an object at rest will stay at rest && an object in motion will remain in motion unless acted on by another force. With that being said you feel tossed around because you are initially at rest but when you ride the roller coaster you take it's course of motion. 

Hoped this helped!
