The correct answer is D. An average city

Explanation:

A neutron star differs from others due to its massive density, this means a lot of matter is compressed in a small area. Indeed, neutron stars have a mass of around 1.4 to 2.8 times the mass of the sun. But these are considerably small as they only measure around 20 kilometers, which is the size of an average city. Additionally, neutron stars are this dense because they are the result of a regular star exploding, which leads to a super-dense core, or neutron star. In this context, the mass of a neutron star is compressed to the size of an average city.

vredina [299]
Given:
u = 10⁵ m/s, the entrance velocity
v = 2.5 x 10⁶ m/s, the exit velocity
s = 1.6 cm = 0.016 m, distance traveled

Let a = the acceleration.
Then
u² + 2as = v²
(10⁵ m/s)² + 2*(a m/s²)*(0.016 m) = (2.5 x 10⁶ m/s)²
0.032a = 6.25 x 10¹² - 10¹⁰ = 6.24 x 10¹²
a = 1.95 x 10¹⁴ m/s²

Answer: 1.95 x 10¹⁴ m/s²

You are creating waves in a rope by shaking your hand back and forth. Without changing the distance your hand moves, you begin t
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

<u>Amplitude - remains the same</u>

<u>Frequency - increases</u>

<u>Period - decreases</u>

<u>Velocity - remains the same.</u>

<u />

Explanation:

The amplitude of the wave remains the same since you are not changing the distance your hand moves and the amplitude of the wave depends on how much distance your hand covers while moving.

The frequency of your wave increases since now you are moving your hand more number of times in the same period i.e. your hand is moving faster in one second. So, the frequency of your wave increases.

The period is the time taken by the wave to travel a certain distance. Since your hand is now moving faster, the wave will travel faster and will take less time to cover the same distance hence, we can say that its period will decrease.

The velocity of a wave depends on the medium in which it is travelling. Your wave was previously travelling in air and the new wave is also travelling in the same medium so the velocity of the wave remains unchanged.

A dog runs 30 feet to the north then 5 feet to the south what is the displacement of the dog
Nuetrik [128]
To look for displacement, just draw a vector from your beginning stage to your last position and settle for the length of this line. So we begin by drawing a line to the north which is 30 ft, since it is north, the line is going up, then it move 5 ft to the south, so put a line going down, so we are in 25 ft, North so that would be the answer.

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

The charges on the plates,

Explanation:

A capacitor is an electronic device that can be used for storing of charges. A parallel plate capacitor consists of two plates of equal area separated by a dielectric constant. The energy stored in the capacitor is in the form of potential energy which comes into play during the discharging process of the capacitor.

The energy stored depends majorly on the voltage, area of the plates, distance between the plates and the nature of the dielectric constant of the material between the plates. But it does not depend on the charges on the plates.
