The sun can continue to exist in its present stable state for about another

Physics

Elden [556K]3 years ago

Answer:

5 billion years

Explanation:

A star like the Sun is called a main sequence star. It is considered as young age star. Sun is a medium sized star and its mass determines how long it can continue in its present form.

Its heat and light are a result of the thermonuclear fusion reactions that occur in its core. The proton cycle and carbon cycle are responsible for  generating the immense energy which is released in the form of heat and light. The amount of nuclear fuel ( hydrogen helium) present in the sun indicate that it can continue glowing at this state for another 5 or 5.5 billion years more. Sun formed abut 4.6 or 5 billion years ago, as shown from the calculations.

A cell phone weighing 80 grams is flying through the air at 15 m/s. What is its kinetic energy
Contact [7]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the cell phone is 9J

Explanation:

The kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of motion.

The kinetic energy is expressed as

KE= 1/2m(v)²

Given data

Mass of cell phone m= 80g--to kg=80/1000= 0.08kg

Velocity of cell phone v= 15m/s

Substituting our given data we have

KE= 1/2*0.08(15)²

KE= (0.08*225)/2

KE=18/2

KE= 9J

A particle is moving with (SHM) of period 8.0s and amplitude5.0m
nadezda [96]

Answer:

velocity(x)=15\,\frac{\pi}{4}\,cos(\frac{\pi}{4}x)

Max speed = \frac{15\, \pi}{4} \,\, \frac{m}{s}

Max acceleration = \frac{15\,\pi^2}{16} \,\,\frac{m}{s^2}

Explanation:

Given the description of period and amplitude, the SHM could be described by:

f(x)=5\,sin(\frac{\pi}{4}x)

and its angular velocity can be calculated doing the derivative:

f(x)=5\, \,sin(\frac{\pi}{4}x)\\f'(x)=5\,\frac{\pi}{4}\,cos(\frac{\pi}{4}x)

And therefore, the tangential velocity is calculated by multiplying this expression times the radius of the movement (3 m):

velocity(x)=15\,\frac{\pi}{4}\,cos(\frac{\pi}{4}x)  and is given in m/s.

Then the maximum speed is obtained when the cosine function becomes "1", and that gives:

Max speed = \frac{15\, \pi}{4} \,\, \frac{m}{s}

The acceleration is found from the derivative of the velocity expression, and therefore given by:

acceleraton(x)=-15\,\frac{\pi^2}{16}\,sin(\frac{\pi}{4}x)

and the maximum of the function will be obtained when the sine expression becomes "-1", which will render:

Max acceleration = \frac{15\,\pi^2}{16} \,\,\frac{m}{s^2}

Two identical wooden barrels are fitted with long pipes extending out their tops. The pipe on the first barrel is 1 foot in diam
ELEN [110]

Answer:

To burst the second barrel, the height of water should also be equal to 20 feet

Explanation:

Diameter of the pipe on the first barrel = 1 ft

Diameter of the pipe on the second barrel = 1/2 inch

The pressure of water in the pipes needed to burst the barrel, P = h \rho g

To burst the barrel having the larger pipe, water was filled to a height of 20 ft

Note that the pressure of water in the pipes as given by the equation above does not depend on the diameters of the pipe. It only depends on the height, density and acceleration due to gravity. Since the density of water and the acceleration due to gravity are constant, for the second pipe to also attain the same pressure as the first pipe needed to burst the barrel, the height of water in the two pipes must be equal

A feather is dropped onto the surface of the moon. How far will the feather have fallen if it reaches in 9.00 seconds? Given: g
Hitman42 [59]
The distance traveled while accelerating from rest is

                           D  =  1/2 a t²    .

For this problem, we shall totally ignore air resistance.
We do so completely without any reservation or guilt,
because we know that there is no air on the moon.

                     D  =  (1/2) · (1.6 m/s²) · (9 sec)²

                         =       (0.8 m/s²) · (81 s²)

                         =        (0.8 · 81) m

                         =            64.8 meters  .

(That's about 213 feet !  The astronaut must have dropped the feather
from his spacecraft while he was aloft ... either just before touchdown
or just after liftoff.)
