Zanzabum

Answer: find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

When a magnet is placed at the centre of the paper, and the nails are sprinkled on the paper, what will happen to the nails is that, the nails will form a pattern on the paper according to the magnetic field of the bar magnetic pole.

Other phenomena you can observe are:

1.) The nails will align themselves and show some lines of forces which is equivalent to the magnetic field lines

2.) The direction of the line of forces

3.) The strength of the magnetic field pole.

If you weigh 690 N on the earth, what would be your weight on the surface of a neutron star that has the same mass as our sun an
lana [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of star M(star) = 1.99×10^30kg

Gravitational constant G

G = 6.67×10^−11 N⋅m²/kg²

Diameter d = 25km

d = 25,000m

R = d/2 = 25,000/2

R = 12,500m

Weight w = 690N

Then, the person mass which is constant can be determined using

W =mg

m = W/g

m = 690/9.81

m = 70.34kg

The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the neutron star is can be determined using

g(star) = GM(star)/R²

g(star) = 6.67×10^-11 × 1.99×10^30 / 12500²

g (star) = 8.49 × 10¹¹ m/s²

Then, the person weight on neutron star is

W = mg

Mass is constant, m = 70.34kg

W = 70.34 × 8.49 × 10¹¹

W = 5.98 × 10¹³ N

The weight of the person on neutron star is 5.98 × 10¹³ N

Explain the origin of the magnitude designation for determining the brightness of stars. Why does it seem to go backward, with s
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Hipparchus was an ancient Greek who classified stars based on the brightness in 129 B.C. He grouped the brightest stars and ranked them 1 (first magnitude) and dimmest stars as 6 (sixth magnitude). Thus, the smaller numbers indicated brighter stars. Now, the scale extends in negative axis as well. More the negative number, brighter is the star. For example, Sun has magnitude -26.74.

This the apparent magnitude which means the classification is based on the brightness of the star as it appears from the Earth.
