<h3>What are stars?</h3>
Stars are a fixed luminous point in the sky which is a large and remote incandescent body
So therefore, the hypothetical upper limit to the mass a star can be before it self-destructs due to the massive amount of fusion it would produce is apparently as a result of Eddington luminosity

Answer:
h >5/2r
Explanation:
This problem involves the application of the concepts of force and the work-energy theorem.
The roller coaster undergoes circular motion when going round the loop. For the rider to stay in contact with the cart at all times, the roller coaster must be moving with a minimum velocity v such that at the top the rider is in a uniform circular motion and does not fall out of the cart. The rider moves around the circle with an acceleration a = v²/r. Where r = radius of the circle.
Vertically two forces are acting on the rider, the weight and normal force of the cart on the rider. The normal force and weight are acting downwards at the top. For the rider not to fall out of the cart at the top, the normal force on the rider must be zero. This brings in a design requirement for the roller coaster to move at a minimum speed such that the cart exerts no force on the rider. This speed occurs when the normal force acting on the rider is zero (only the weight of the rider is acting on the rider)
So from newton's second law of motion,
W – N = mv²/r
N = normal force = 0
W = mg
mg = ma = mv²/r
mg = mv²/r
v²= rg
v = √(rg)
The roller coaster starts from height h. Its potential energy changes as it travels on its course. The potential energy decreases from a value mgh at the height h to mg×2r at the top of the loop. No other force is acting on the roller coaster except the force of gravity which is a conservative force so, energy is conserved. Because energy is conserved the total change in the potential energy of the rider must be at least equal to or greater than the kinetic energy of the rider at the top of the loop
So
ΔPE = ΔKE = 1/2mv²
The height at the roller coaster starts is usually higher than the top of the loop by design. So
ΔPE =mgh - mg×2r = mg(h – 2r)
2r is the vertical distance from the base of the loop to the top of the loop, basically the diameter of the loop.
In order for the roller coaster to move smoothly and not come to a halt at the top of the loop, the ΔPE must be greater than the ΔKE at the top.
So ΔPE > ΔKE at the top. The extra energy moves the rider the loop from the top.
ΔPE > ΔKE
mg(h–2r) > 1/2mv²
g(h–2r) > 1/2(√(rg))²
g(h–2r) > 1/2×rg
h–2r > 1/2×r
h > 2r + 1/2r
h > 5/2r
An arrow which shows the direction that the probe should be moving in order for it to enter the orbit is X.
<h3>What is an orbit?</h3>
An orbit can be defined as the curved path through which a astronomical (celestial) object such as planet Earth, in space move around a Moon, Sun, planet or star.
In this scenario, if the scientists want the probe to enter the orbit they should ensure that probe moves in direction X. This ultimately implies that, the probe must move in the same direction as the orbit, in order to enter it.

<h2>MARK BRAINLIEST</h2>
For this assignment, you will develop several models that show how light waves and mechanical waves are reflected, absorbed, or transmitted through various materials. For each model, you will write a brief description of the interaction between the wave and the material. You will also compose two <u><em>typewritten</em></u> paragraphs. The first will compare and contrast light waves interacting with different materials. The second will explain why materials with certain properties are well suited for particular functions.
<h2><u>Background Information</u></h2>
A wave is any disturbance that carries energy from one place to another. There are two different types of waves: mechanical and electromagnetic. A mechanical wave carries energy through matter. Energy is transferred through vibrating particles of matter. Examples of mechanical waves include ocean waves, sound waves, and seismic waves. Like a mechanical wave, an electromagnetic wave can also carry energy through matter. However, unlike a mechanical wave, an electromagnetic wave does not need particles of matter to carry energy. Examples of electromagnetic waves include microwaves, visible light, X-rays, and radiation from the Sun.
