5 0

Answer:

A very massive main- sequence star

Explanation:

Degeneracy pressure refers to pressure expend by dense material , which is composed of fermions, which is an example of electrons in a white dwarf star. According to Pauli exclusion principle, which states that no two fermions can exist in the same quantum state, actually give details about the pressure.

When there is stellar masses that is less than about 1.44 of that of solar masses, there will be gravitational fall in the energy , and the energy will not be sufficient to produce the neutrons of a neutron star, therefore, the fall is abstruptly stopped through the electron degeneracy to form white dwarfs.this result to the creation of an effective pressure that further prevents gravitational fall.

A ball traveling at 15 m/s hits a bat with a force of 200N. How much force does the bat (moving at 20m/s)

just olya [345]

Answer:

200 N

Explanation:

Given that,

A ball traveling at 15 m/s hits a bat with a force of 200 N.

We need to find the force that the bat moving at 20 m/s hit the ball with.

We know that, this probelm is based on Newton's third law of motion. The force that the ball exerting on bat should be equal to the force that the bat exerting in the ball but in opposite direction.

It would mean that the ball hits the ball with a force of 200 N. Hence, the correct option is (a).

The figure shows the arrangement of master cylinder and slave cylinder of a part of braking system. The master cylinder piston,

Neko [114]

Answer:

a) 35 kPa

d) 140 N

c) 1) Increasing the brake fluid pressure

2) Increasing the slave piston surface area.

Explanation:

The parameters given are;

a) Force applied to the master cylinder piston = 28 N

Cross sectional area of the master cylinder piston = 8 cm² = 8 × 10⁻⁴ m²

The pressure P on the brake fluid is given by the formula for pressure as follows;

$P= \dfrac{Applied \ force}{Area \over \ which \ force \ is \ applied} = \dfrac{28 \, N}{8 \times 10^{-4} \, m^2} = 35,000 \, N/m^2 = 35,000 \, Pa$

The pressure on the brake fluid, P, produced by the master cylinder piston = 35,000 Pa = 35 kPa

b) Given that the area of the slave piston = 40 cm² = 0.004 m², we have from the formula for pressure, P;

$P= \dfrac{Applied \ force}{Area \over \ which \ force \ is \ applied} = \dfrac{Applied \ force}{4 \times 10^{-3} \, m^2} = 35,000 \, N/m^2$

Therefore;

Applied force on the slave piston = 4 × 10⁻³ m² × 35,000 N/m² = 140 N

c) The force, F produced by the slave cylinder piston is given by the relation;

F = Pressure × Area

Therefore, the two ways of increasing the force produced by the slave cylinder piston is as follows;

1) Increasing the pressure in the brake fluid by increasing the force exerted by the master cylinder piston

2) Increasing the surface area of the slave piston.

Directions: Consider a 2-kg bowling ball sits on top of a building that is 40 meters tall. It falls to the ground. Think about t

satela [25.4K]

1) At the top, the ball has more potential energy

2) Halfway through the fall, potential energy and kinetic energy are equal

3) Before hitting the ground, the ball has more kinetic energy

4) Potential energy at the top: 784 J

5) Potential energy halfway through the fall: 392 J

6) Kinetic energy halfway through the fall: 392 J

7) KInetic energy before hitting the ground: 784 J

Explanation:

The potential energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its position in a gravitational field. It is given by

$PE=mgh$

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration of gravity

h is the height of the object above the ground

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion, and it is given by

$KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where v is the speed of the object

For the bowling ball in the problem, when it sits on top of the building it has no kinetic energy (because its speed is zero, v = 0), therefore it has more potential energy than kinetic energy.

The total mechanical energy of the ball, which is the sum of the potential and the kinetic energy, is constant during the fall:

$E=PE+KE=const.$

When the ball is at the top, all its energy is potential energy, since the kinetic energy is zero:

$E=PE=mgH$

where H is the initial height.

When the ball is halfway through the fall, the height is H/2, so:

$PE=mg\frac{H}{2}$

which means that the potential energy is now half of the total mechanical energy: but since the total energy must be constant, this means that the kinetic energy is now also half of the total energy. Therefore, potential energy and kinetic energy are equal.

When the ball is just before hitting the ground, the height of the ball is now zero

h = 0

This also means that the potential energy is zero

PE = 0

Therefore, all the energy of the ball is now kinetic energy:

$KE=E$

which means that the kinetic energy is maximum, and therefore it is larger than the potential energy: this is because the ball accelerates during the fall, and therefore its speed is maximum just before hitting the ground.

The potential energy of the ball is given by

$PE=mgh$

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration of gravity

h is the height of the object above the ground

When the ball sits at the top, we have

m = 2 kg

$g=9.8 m/s^2$

h = 40 m

Therefore, the potential energy is

$PE=(2)(9.8)(40)=784 J$

The potential energy of the ball is given by

$PE=mgh$

where

m = 2 kg is the mass

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration due to gravity

When the ball is halfway through the fall, the height of the ball is

h = 20 m

Therefore, its potential energy is

$PE=(2)(9.8)(20)=392 J$

which is half of the initial potential energy.

The kinetic energy of the ball is given by

$KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

m is the mass of the ball

v is its speed

When the ball is halfway through the fall, we have:

m = 2 kg (mass of the ball)

v = 19.8 m/s (speed of the ball)

Therefore, the kinetic energy is

$KE=\frac{1}{2}(2)(19.8)^2=392 J$

Which is equal to the potential energy.

The kinetic energy of the ball just before hitting the ground is

$KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where in this case,

m = 2 kg is the mass

v = 28 m/s is the speed of the ball

Therefore, kinetic energy is

$KE=\frac{1}{2}(2)(28)^2=784 J$

And we see that the kinetic energy of the ball just before hitting the ground is equal to the potential energy of the ball when it sits at the top: therefore, all the mechanical energy has converted from potential energy into kinetic energy.
