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

A popular car stereo has four speakers, each rated at 60 W. In answering the following questions, assume that the speakers produ
Fantom [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

Intensity of sound = sound energy emitted by source / 4 π d² , where d is distance of the source .

A )

Intensity of sound at 1 m distance = 60 /4 π d²

d = 1 m

Intensity of sound at 1 m distance = 60 /(4 π 1²)

= 4.78 W m⁻² s⁻¹

B )

Intensity of sound at 1.5 m distance = 60 /4 π d²

d = 1.5  m

Intensity of sound at 1 m distance = 60 /(4 π 1.5²)

= 2.12 W m⁻² s⁻¹

C )

Intensity of sound due to 4 speakers at 1.5 m distance = 4 x 60 /4 π d²

d = 1.5  m

= 4 x 60 /(4 π 1.5²)

= 8.48 W m⁻² s⁻¹

D )

Intensity of sound due to .06 W speaker must be 10⁻¹² W s ⁻² . Let the distance be d .

.06 /4 π d² = 10⁻¹²

d² = .06 /4 π 10⁻¹²

d = 6.9 x 10⁴ m .

If one doubles the emfs in a circuit and doubles the resistances in the circuit at the same time, what happens to the currents t
bija089 [108]

Answer:

Same

Explanation:

Let R be the resistance of the cell and E be the emf.

Let i be the current in the circuit.

i = E / R      ..... (1)

Now emf and resistance be doubled.

so, i' = 2E/2R = E/R

So, i' = i    (From equation (1)

Current remains same.
