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

If two asteroids moved closer together, what would be the result on the gravitational force each asteroid exerts on the other?
spayn [35]
Gravitational force depends on inverse square law. That is, gravitational force is inversely proportional to square of distance between asteroids.
As distance between them decreases, gravitational force increases. Hence A is correct.

A 7-kg bowling ball moving at 4 m/s strikes a 1 kg bowling pin. If the ball slows to 2 m/s in 0.05 s, how much force does it exe
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

280 N

Explanation:

acceleration = v2-v1 / time taken = (2-4 )/ 0.05 = -40 m/s^2  ( neg sign indicates slowing down )

force exerted = ma = 7 kg x -40 m/s^2 = - 280 N ( neg sign means opposite direction of initial velocity )

since the 7 kg ball is slowing down, the  direction of force will be opposite of the initial velocity , and it will be 280 N

Model rocket engines are rated by the impulse that they deliver when they fire. A particular engine is rated to deliver an impul
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

Final speed of the rocket, \Delta v= 29.16\ m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Impulse delivered by an engine, J = 3.5 kg-m/s

Mass of the rocket, m = 120 g = 0.12 kg

To find,

The final speed of the rocket

Solution,

We know that the impulse is equal to the product of mass and velocity o it is equivalent to the change in momentum of an object.

J=\Delta P=m\times \Delta v

\Delta v=\dfrac{J}{m}

\Delta v=\dfrac{3.5\ kg-m/s}{0.12\ kg}

\Delta v= 29.16\ m/s

So, the final speed of the rocket once the engine has fired is 29.16 m/s.

A 1500-kg car is travelling at a constant speed of 10 m/s in a circular path. What fact would support a claim that there was a n
Sindrei [870]
The circular path that the car is following reveals the presence
of a net force acting on the car. 

If there were no net force, pointing toward the center of the circular
path, the car would travel in a straight line.
