Because the charges of static electricity and the eons coming from your hair pull together to make the balloon stick

What main factor determines the stages a star will follow after the main sequence?.

Artyom0805 [142]

The main factor that determines the stages a star will follow after the main sequence is the star's mass or size.

<h3>What is main sequence?</h3>

The main sequence of a star is a stage in the life cycle of that star. During the main sequence ( also called the zero age ), the star generates energy by nuclear fusion of Hydrogen atoms at the core of the star into Helium atoms. Eventually, the star runs out of hydrogen atoms, which concludes the main sequence. What happens afterward depends on the size of the star.

<h3>Low mass stars </h3>

For low-mass stars ( stars that are less than 0.1 times the mass of the sun), they slowly collapse into white dwarfs. These stars do not get hot enough to fuse helium atoms, instead hydrogen fusion continues until the whole star is filled with helium and slowly collapses into a white dwarf while it grows dimmer and colder.

<h3>Medium-sized stars</h3>

Medium-sized stars ( stars about 0.6 - 10 times the mass of our sun) become red giants. Stars similar in size to our sun are hot enough to fuse helium atoms, so towards the end of the main sequence it starts to fuse helium atoms, forming heavier elements like carbon and oxygen. The heavier elements move to the star's core due to gravity, while lighter elements like hydrogen form a shell around the core. This causes the sun to then grow in size, forming a red giant.

<h3>Large stars</h3>

Massive stars ( greater than 10 times the mass of the sun) and super-massive stars ( more than 40 times the mass of the sun ) end up exploding into a supernova , while the dense core collapses into a neutron star or a black hole.

A person kicks a 4.0-kilogram door with a 48-newton force causing the door to accelerate at 12 meters per second squared. What i

inna [77]

Answer:

-48 N

Explanation:

mass of door (m) = 4 kg

acceleration of the door = 12 m/s^{2}

force exerted by the person = 48 N

From Newton's third law of motion, action and reaction are equal but opposite. Therefore the force exerted on the door by the person which is 48 N will be the same as the force exerted on the person by the door but opposite in its direction, and this would be - 48 N
