Answer:

<em>faster and at a higher luminosity and temperature.</em>

Explanation:

A protostar looks like a star but its core is not yet hot enough for fusion to take place. The luminosity comes exclusively from the heating of the protostar as it contracts. Protostars are usually surrounded by dust, which blocks the light that they emit, so they are difficult to observe in the visible spectrum.

A protostar becomes a main sequence star when its core temperature exceeds 10 million K. This is the temperature needed for hydrogen fusion to operate efficiently.

Stars above about 200 solar masses (Higher mass) generate power so furiously that gravity cannot contain their internal pressure. These stars blow themselves apart and do not exist for long if at all. A protostar with less than 0.08 solar masses never reaches the 10 million K temperature needed for efficient hydrogen fusion. These result in “failed stars” called brown dwarfs which radiate mainly in the infrared and look deep red in color. They are very dim and difficult to detect, but there might be many of them, and in fact they might outnumber other stars in the universe.

That is why higher mass protostars enter the main sequence at a <em>faster and at a higher luminosity and temperature.</em>

A 1500kg car double its speed from 50km/h to 100km/h. By how many times does the kinetic energy from the car's forward motion in
Rashid [163]

Answer:

Explanation:

Inital KE = (1/2) m v^2 = (1/2) * 1500 * 50^2 = 1,875,000 J  

Final KE = (1/2) * 1500 * 100^2 = 7,500,000 J  

But  ,

4 * 1875000 = 7500000

so the KE has increased by 4 times.

A piano wire with mass 2.60g and length 84.0 cm is stretched with a tension of 25.0 N. A wave with frequency 120.0 Hz and amplit
likoan [24]

Answer:

Power will be 0.2023 watt

And when amplitude is halved then power will be 0.0505 watt

Explanation:

We have given mass of the Piano wire m = 2.60 gram = 0.0026 kg

Length of wire l = 84 cm = 0.84 m

So mass density \mu =\frac{m}{l}=\frac{0.0026}{0.84}=0.0031kg/m

Tension in the wire T = 25 N

Frequency f = 120 Hz

So angular frequency \omega =2\pi f=2\times 3.14\times 120=753.6rad/sec

And amplitude A = 1.6 mm = 0.0016 m

We have to find the generated power

Power is given by P=\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{\mu T}\omega ^2A^2=\frac{1}{2}\times \sqrt{0.0031\times 25}\times 753.6^2\times 0.0016^2=0.2023watt

From the relation we can see that power P\ \propto\ A^2

So if amplitude is halved then power will be \frac{1}{4} times

So power will be equal to \frac{0.2023}{2}=0.0505watt
