Answer:

B. Gravity compresses gases at the center of a solar nebula until temperatures are high enough for nuclear fusion to occur.

Explanation:

Stars are born in stellar nurseries known as nebula. Sun, the star at the center of the solar system was born in the solar nebula.

Nebula is a molecular cloud of dust and gases. Due to gravity, this cloud collapses under its own weight and condenses to form the core. It gathers more mass till the temperature of the core rises enough to start the nuclear fusion reaction. A star is born then.

a body dropped from a height reaches a velocity of 13m/s just before touching the ground. What is the initial height of the ball
SashulF [63]

Hi there!

We can use the following (derived) equation to solve for the final velocity given height:

vf = √2gh

We can rearrange to solve for height:

vf² = 2gh

vf²/2g = h

Plug in the given values (g = 9.81 m/s²)

(13)²/2(9.81) = 8.614 m

We can calculate time using the equation:

vf = vi + at, where:

vi = initial velocity (since dropped from rest, = 0 m/s)

a = acceleration (in this instance, due to gravity)

Plug in values:

13 = at

13/a = t

13/9.81 = 1.325 sec
