Answer:

In astrophysics and nuclear physics, nuclear pasta is a theoretical type of degenerate matter that is postulated to exist within the crusts of neutron stars. If it does in fact exist, nuclear pasta is the strongest material in the universe.

The closest stars are 4 light years away from us. How far away must you be from a 854 kHz radio station with power 50.0 kW for t

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

The distance from the radio station is 0.28 light years away.

Solution:

As per the question:

Distance, d = 4 ly

Frequency of the radio station, f = 854 kHz = $854\times 10^{3}\ Hz$

Power, P = 50 kW = $50\times 10^{3}\ W$

$I_{p} = 1\ photon/s/m^{2}$

Now,

From the relation:

P = nhf

where

n = no. of photons/second

h = Planck's constant

f = frequency

Now,

$n = \frac{P}{hf} = \frac{50\times 10^{3}}{6.626\times 10^{- 34}\times 854\times 10^{3}} = 8.836\times 10^{31}\ photons/s$

Area of the sphere, A = $4\pi r^{2}$

Now,

Suppose the distance from the radio station be 'r' from where the intensity of the photon is $1\ photon/s/m^{2}$

$I_{p} = \frac{n}{A} = \frac{n}{4\pi r^{2}}$

$1 = \frac{8.836\times 10^{31}}{4\pi r^{2}}$

$r = \sqrt{\frac{8.836\times 10^{31}}{4\pi}} = 2.65\times 10^{15}\ m$

Now,

We know that:

1 ly = $9.4607\times 10^{15}\ m$

Thus

$r = \frac{2.65\times 10^{15}}{9.4607\times 10^{15}} = 0.28\ ly$

Describe the relationship between radius and mass?

algol [13]

Answer:

mass of the earth is directly proportional to its gravity and the radius is inversely proportional to its gravity. ... But when you go inside the surface of the earth inspiteof decreasing radius the force of gravity decreases.

What causes convection currents, and what do they do?

frez [133]

Answer:

Convection currents are the result of different heating. Lighter material (warm) rises while heavier (cold) material sinks. This movement of the materials is what causes convection currents! (BTW, it happens in water, in the atmosphere, and in the mantle of Earth!

Explanation:

I hope this helps a little! :)

Describe how an electromagnet can be switched on and off.

Phoenix [80]

Answer:The magnetic field around an electromagnet is just the same as the one around a bar magnet. It can, however, be reversed by turning the battery around. Unlike bar magnets, which are permanent magnets, the magnetism of electromagnets can be turned on and off just by closing or opening the switch.

The first law of motion applies to what?

lana66690 [7]

First law of motion- sometimes referred to as the law of inertia. An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
