How are stars formed

1 answer:

4 0

Stars are made up of gas and dust. The formation process takes around a million years for the time of the initial gas starts to collapse until the star is created and shines. The formation is a huge process.

Can inserting a resistor in a circuit produce an effect similar to a short circuit?

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

By ‘inserting’ you means to putting a resistor in series. In this case, no, there is no resistance that would produce the same effect as a short circuit.

If you adding a resistor in parallel with the circuit, then if it had a low value It might be similar to a short circuit. I

A field measuring 12 meters by 16 meters is to have a brick paver walkway installed all around it, increasing the total area to

kolezko [41]

Answer:

1.5 m

Explanation:

Length. L = 12 m

Width, W = 16 m

Area, A = 12 x 16 = 192 m^2

Let the width of pavement be d.

The new length, L' = 12 + 2d

the new width, W' = 16 + 2d

New Area, A' = L' x W' = (12 + 2d)(16 + 2d) = 192 + 56 d + 4d^2

Difference in area = A' - A

285 = 192 + 56 d + 4d^2 - 192

93 = 56 d + 4d^2

4d^2 + 56 d - 93 = 0

$d = \frac{-56\pm \sqrt{56^{2}+4\times 4\times 93}}{8}$

$d=\frac{-56\pm 87.72}{8}$ \

d = 1.5 m

Thus, the width of the pavement is 1.5 m.

A parallel-plate air capacitor with a capacitance of 260 pF has a charge of magnitude 0.155 Î¼C on each plate. The plates have a

butalik [34]

Answer:

The potential difference between the plates is 596.2 volts.

Explanation:

Given that,

Capacitance $C=260\ pF$

Charge $q=0.155\ \mu\ C$

Separation of plates = 0.313 mm

We need to calculate the potential difference between the plates

Using formula of potential difference

$V= \dfrac{Q}{C}$

Where, Q = charge

C = capacitance

Put the value into the formula

$V=\dfrac{0.155\times10^{-6}}{260\times10^{-12}}$

$V=596.2\ volts$

Hence,The potential difference between the plates is 596.2 volts.

Imagine that Kevin can instantly transport himself between Planet X and Planet Y. Which statement could be said about Kevin in t

Over [174]

What are the choices ?

Without some directed choices, I'm, free to make up any
reasonable statement that could be said about Kevin in this
situation. A few of them might be . . .

-- Kevin will have no trouble getting back in time for dinner.

-- Kevin will have no time to enjoy the scenery along the way.

-- Some simple Physics shows us that Kevin is out of his mind.
He can't really do that.

   -- Speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance) .

If time to cover the distance is zero, then speed is huge (infinite).

   -- Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)² .

If speed is huge (infinite), then kinetic energy is huge squared (even more).
There is not enough energy in the galaxy to push Kevin to that kind of speed.

   -- Mass = (Kevin's rest-mass) / √(1 - v²/c²)

-- As soon as Kevin reaches light-speed, his mass becomes infinite.
-- It takes an infinite amount of energy to push him any faster.
-- If he succeeds somehow, his mass becomes imaginary.
-- At that point, he might as well turn around and go home ...
   if he ever reached Planet-Y, nobody could see him anyway.
