A white dwarf in a binary system suddenly flares, but in a few months it settles back to its original luminosity. This process m

ay repeat many times. What object is it?

Anvisha [2.4K]3 years ago

Answer:

A Pulsar

Explanation:

Such white dwarf is a Pulsar (from pulsating star). Three main features we find in this kind of celestial body

1. Incredibly high density, in a pulsar there is not what we can define as free interspace. Everything is mass

2.- Huge rotational speed (more than hundreds of kilometer) spinning at more than hundreds of kilometer per second

3.-Intense magnetic field

Combinations of thse features make pulsar emits important amount of energies with pricese periods of time. And if on earth we look a jet of electromagnetic radiation with a precise rigurosity (at pricese period of time) is because we are looking a pulsar spinning and each time the radiation appears is a turn of the pulsar

The diagram below shows two bowling balls, A and B, each having a mass of 7.0 kg, placed 2.00 m apart between their centers.
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

F = 1.63 x 10⁻⁹ N

Explanation:

Complete question is as follows:

The diagram below shows two bowling balls, A and B, each having a mass of 7.0 kg, placed 2.00 m apart between their centers. Find the magnitude of Gravitational Force?

Answer:

The gravitational force is given by Newton's Gravitational Law as follows:

F = Gm₁m₂/r²

where,

F = Gravitational Force = ?

G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

m₁ = m₂ = mass of each ball = 7 kg

r = distance between balls = 2 m

Therefore,

F = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²)(7 kg)(7 kg)/(2 m)²

<u>F = 1.63 x 10⁻⁹ N</u>

A 15.0 g bullet is moving to the right with speed 270 m/s when it hits a target and travels an additional 25.0 cm into the targe
Fantom [35]

Answer:

F=2187\ N

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of bullet,m=15\ g=0.015\ kg
  • initial velocity of bullet, u=270\ m.s^{-1}
  • displacement of the bullet in the target, s=25\ cm=0.25\ m

Here as given in the question the bullet penetrates the target by the given displacement of the bullet into it. During this process it faces deceleration and hence it comes to rest.

  • so, final velocity of the bullet, v=0\ m.s^{-1}

Now using the equation of motion:

v^2=u^2+2a.s

where:

a= acceleration of the bullet

0^2=270^2+2a\times 0.25

a=145800\ m.s^{-2}

<u>Now the force of resistance offered by the target in stopping it:</u>

F=m.a

F=0.015\times145800

F=2187\ N

An automobile accelerates from zero to 30 m/s in 6.0 s. The wheels have a diameter of 0.40 m. What is the average angular accele
leva [86]

To solve this problem we will use the concepts related to angular motion equations. Therefore we will have that the angular acceleration will be equivalent to the change in the angular velocity per unit of time.

Later we will use the relationship between linear velocity, radius and angular velocity to find said angular velocity and use it in the mathematical expression of angular acceleration.

The average angular acceleration

\alpha = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_0}{t}

Here

\alpha = Angular acceleration

\omega_{f,i} = Initial and final angular velocity

There is not initial angular velocity,then

\alpha = \frac{\omega_f}{t}

We know that the relation between the tangential velocity with the angular velocity is given by,

v = r\omega

Here,

r = Radius

\omega = Angular velocity,

Rearranging to find the angular velocity

\omega = \frac{v}{r}}

\omega = \frac{30}{0.20} \rightarrow Remember that the radius is half te diameter.

Now replacing this expression at the first equation we have,

\alpha = \frac{30}{0.20*6}

\alpha = 25 rad /s^2

Therefore teh average angular acceleration of each wheel is 25rad/s^2

During a chemical reaction atoms can be rearranged or destroyed but not created <br> True <br> False
Alex Ar [27]

False. This is because atoms can be rearranged, but they can not be destroyed or created. This explains the law of conservation of mass.
