White dwarf are very dense and small in size is a true statement.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

A white dwarf also known as degenerate dwarf.  The white dwarf "mass is comparable to the Sun" and its "volume is comparable to Earth".

The white dwarf is a stellar whose size is near to the size of the earth. It had a gravitational collapse. The diameter of the white dwarf is just one percent of the Sun. It is extremely dense where there is no free space between the atoms.

A body is moving along a circular path with variable speed, it has both radial and tangential acceleration.
belka [17]

Answer:

True;   ar = v^2 / R      Radial acceleration because it moves in a circular path

    at = α R = tangential acceleration because its speed changes

a = at + ar    total acceleration equals sum of radial and tangential

An electron is released from rest in a uniform electric field of 418 N/C near a particle detector. The electron arrives at the d
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

a) 7.35 x 10¹³ m/s²

b) 5.03 x 10⁻⁸ sec

c) 9.3 cm

d) 6.23 x 10⁻¹⁸ J

Explanation:

E = magnitude of electric field = 418 N/C

q = magnitude of charge on electron = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

m = mass of the electron = 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg

a)

acceleration of the electron is given as

a = \frac{qE}{m}

a = \frac{(1.6\times 10^{-19})(418)}{(9.1\times 10^{-31})}

a = 7.35 x 10¹³ m/s²

b)

v = final velocity of the electron = 3.70 x 10⁶ m/s

v₀ = initial velocity of the electron = 0 m/s

t = time taken

Using the equation

v = v₀ + at

3.70 x 10⁶ = 0 + (7.35 x 10¹³) t

t = 5.03 x 10⁻⁸ sec

c)

d = distance traveled by the electron

using the equation

d = v₀ t + (0.5) at²

d = (0) (5.03 x 10⁻⁸) + (0.5) (7.35 x 10¹³) (5.03 x 10⁻⁸)²

d = 0.093 m

d = 9.3 cm

d)

Kinetic energy of the electron is given as

KE = (0.5) m v²

KE = (0.5) (9.1 x 10⁻³¹) (3.70 x 10⁶)²

KE = 6.23 x 10⁻¹⁸ J

On a graph of position vs. time, what do the x-values represent? What do the y-values represent?
jasenka [17]
 The <span>x-values equal time (usually in seconds according to physics position vs. time graphs) and the y-values equal distance (usually in meters according to physics position vs. time graphs). I hope the answer helps. Thank you for posting your question here. </span>

You wish to lift a 12,000 lb stone by a vertical distance of 15 ft. Unfortunately, you can only generate a maximum pushing force
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

5,760,000 lb-ft²/s²

Explanation:

Work done, W = mgy where m = mass of stone = 12,000 lb, g = 32 ft/s² and y = vertical distance = 15 ft.

So, W = mgy = 12,000 lb × 32 ft/s² × 15 ft. = 5,760,000 lb-ft²/s²

How long is the photons journey from the milky way to earth
fgiga [73]
Well i’d love to answer your question but its missing some information. firstly the earth is within the milky way galaxy so something cannot travel “from” but if you said “through” the answer would be 299,792,458 meters a second
