Answer: The five general characteristics of the nearest stars are the brightness, color, surface temperature, size, and mass.

Explanation:

The mass of a star can be described as being measured with our sun at 1 solar mass. One star can equal the size of our sun. There is one star named, Rigel, that is bigger than the Earths sun. Each star will vary in its density.

The size of the star, as stated above, can be the size of our sun and sometimes larger. The size is measured by solar radii.

Stars vary in their temp. They range anywhere from -273.15 degrees Celsius to 50,000 K. The temp is based on the Kelvin scale.

The stars brightness are always based on luminosity and magnitude.

The stars colors will vary and is based on the temperature of the surface of the star. Some stars are red in color, white in color, and some even have a bluish color.

The gravitational potential energy is 252 J

Explanation:

The Gravitational Potential Energy (GPE) of an object is given by

GPE=Wh

where

W is the weight of the object

h is the height of the object above the ground

For the carriage and the baby in this problem, we have

W = 21 N is their weight

h = 21 m is their height above the ground

Substituting,

GPE=(12)(21)=252 J

Multiply the following numbers, using scientific notation and the correct amount of significant digits. 1.003 m⋅3.09 = _____ 3.0
lozanna [386]

Answer

correct answer is 3.10

Explanation:

in this question we have to multiply  two numbers 1.003 and 3.09.

1.003 has 4 significant digits and 3.09 has 3 significant digits so answer must have 3 significant digits.

1.003\times 3.09=3.09927

1.003\times 3.09=3.10              


Hope it will help you

Naddika [18.5K]

Explanation:

Initial energy = final energy + work done by friction

PE = PE + KE + W

mgH = mgh + 1/2 mv² + W

(800)(9.8)(30) = (800)(9.8)(2) + 1/2 (800) v² + 25000

v = 22.1 m/s

Without friction:

PE = PE + KE

mgH = mgh + 1/2 mv²

(800)(9.8)(30) = (800)(9.8)(2) + 1/2 (800) v²

v = 23.4 m/s
