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

Anvisha [2.4K]3 years ago
4 0

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 weight of a block on the inclined plane is 500 N and the angle of incline is 30 degrees. What is the magnitude of the force
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

250 N

433 N

Explanation:

N = Normal force by the surface of the inclined plane

W = Weight of the block = 500 N

f = static frictional force acting on the block

Parallel to incline, force equation is given as

f = W Sin30

f = (500) Sin30

f = 250 N

Perpendicular to incline force equation is given  

N = W Cos30

N = (500) Cos30

N = 433 N

A company is creating a new mosquito repellent, and needs to figure out how much is needed to stop mosquito bites. They find vol
Jlenok [28]

The independent variable is the different amount of repellent each person is given. This is because it does not depend on any variable. The dependent variable is what they are measuring, which would be the number of bites on each volunteer.
I hope this helps! :)

A violin string that is 50.0 cm long has a fundamental frequency of 440 Hz. What is the
amid [387]
For a standing wave on a string, the wavelength is equal to twice the length of the string:
\lambda=2 L
In our problem, L=50.0 cm=0.50 m, therefore the wavelength of the wave is
\lambda = 2 \cdot 0.50 m = 1.00 m

And the speed of the wave is given by the product between the frequency and the wavelength of the wave:
v=\lambda f = (1.00 m)(440 Hz)=440 m/s

When we apply the energy conversation principle to a cylinder rolling down an incline without sliding, we exclude the work done
NikAS [45]

Answer:

D. the linear velocity of the point of contact (relative to the inclined surface) is zero

Explanation:

The force of friction emerges only when there is relative velocity between two objects . In case of perfect rolling , there is no sliding so relative velocity between the surface and the point of contact is zero . In other words the velocity of point of contact becomes zero , even though , the whole body is in linear motion . It happens due  point of contact having two velocities which are equal and opposite . One of the velocity is in forward direction and the other velocity which is due to rotation is in backward direction . So net velocity of point of contact becomes zero . Due to absence of sliding , displacement due to friction  becomes zero . Hence work done by friction becomes zero.
