<h2>Answer: Because they rotate really fast. </h2>

First, it is necessary to clarify what is a pulsar (pulsating star) and what is a neutron star:

<u>A pulsar</u> is a neutron star that emits very intense electromagnetic radiation at short and periodic intervals due to its intense magnetic field that induces this emission.

<u>A neutron star</u>, is the name given to the remains of a supernova. In itself it is the result of the gravitational collapse of a massive supergiant star after exhausting the fuel in its core.

Neutron stars have a small size for their very high density and they rotate at a huge speed.

<h2>So, the way to know that a pulsar is a neutron star is because of its <u>high rotating speed. </u></h2>

Nevertheless, it is important to note that all pulsars are neutron stars, but not all neutron stars are pulsars.

The normal force is the supporting force that is exerted on an object that is in contact with another stable object.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation: </u>

Normal force is forward or upward pushing force acting on an object. Mostly the normal force acts as supporting force exerted on the object by the neighbouring stable object with which the object in question is in contact. So normal force falls under the category of contact forces.

Generally, normal force will be acting to support the weight of any object placed on another object. The best examples of normal forces are the weight of the book supported by table or by the pushing force of the wall on the person leaning on the wall.

PLS I NEED HELP ASAAP

Lerok [7]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

The Equation represents the displacement of the object which is represented by x

$x=t-t^2$

so, $x_0$ means when time is zero so we replace t with zero in the equation,

$x_0=(0)-(0)^2\\x_0=0$

now for v which is velocity we need to differentiate the function as the formula for velocity is rate of change of displacement over time so we derivate the equation once and get,

$v=1-2t\\$

now for $v_0$ we insert t = 0 and get

$v_0=1-2(0)\\v_0=1$

now for a which is acceleration the formula of acceleration is rate of change of velocity over time, so we differentiate the the equation of v(velocity) once or the equation of x(displacement) twice so now we get,

$a=-2$

so Option A is your answer.

Remember derivative of a constant is always zero because a constant value has no rate of change has its a constant hence the derivative is 0

A 10.0 L tank contains 0.329 kg of helium at 28.0 ∘C. The molar mass of helium is 4.00 g/mol . Part A How many moles of helium a

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

82.25 moles of He

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Volume (V) = 10 L

Mass of He = 0.329 Kg

Temperature (T) = 28.0 °C

Molar mass of He = 4 g/mol

Mole of He =?

Next, we shall convert 0.329 Kg of He to g. This can be obtained as follow:

1 Kg = 1000 g

Therefore,

0.329 Kg = 0.329 Kg × 1000 g / 1 Kg

0.329 Kg = 329 g

Thus, 0.329 Kg is equivalent to 329 g.

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of He in the tank. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

Mass of He = 329 g

Molar mass of He = 4 g/mol

Mole of He =?

Mole = mass / molar mass

Mole of He = 329 / 4

Mole of He = 82.25 moles

Therefore, there are 82.25 moles of He in the tank.

Determine the slope of end a of the cantilevered beam. E = 200 gpa and i = 65. 0(106) mm4

DENIUS [597]

For E = 200 gpa and i = 65. 0(106) mm4, the slope of end a of the cantilevered beam is mathematically given as

A=0.0048rads

<h3>What is the slope of end a of the cantilevered beam?</h3>

Generally, the equation for the is mathematically given as

$A=\frac{PL^2}{2EI}+\frac{ML}{EI}$

Therefore

A=\frac{10+10^2+3^2}{2*240*10^9*65*10^6}+\frac{10+10^3*3}{240*10^9*65*10^{-6}}

A=0.00288+0.00192=0.0048rads

A=0.0048rads

In conclusion, the slope is

A=0.0048rads
