What’s a star? In complete sentences.

Physics
1 answer:
Alexxx [7]3 years ago

Hello!

A star is a large, spherical burning ball of gas located in outer space. They are made of hot gasses and plasma.

They are born in a nebula which is a large cluster of stardust. Many stars perform nuclear fusion, where hydrogen nuclei combine to create helium. This provides stars energy to burn and prosper for billions of years.

When a star is dying it will begin to lose its power. It will eventually explode in an enormous supernova. This has a chance of creating a black hole. Usually the remnants of the supernova will form another nebula, therefore continuing the cycle of a star.

I hope this helps!

Carlos gives a grocery cart a 60-N push. The cart has a mass of 40 kg. What is the cart's acceleration?
andre [41]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

1.5 m/s²

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given;

Force as 60 N

Mass of the Cart as 40 kg

We are required to calculate the acceleration of the cart.

  • From the newton's second law of motion, the rate of change in momentum is directly proportional to the resultant force.
  • That is, F = ma , where m is the mass and a is the acceleration

Rearranging the formula we can calculate acceleration, a

a = F ÷ m

  = 60 N ÷ 40 kg

  = 1.5 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the cart is 1.5 m/s²

A moving van travels 10km North, then 4 km east, drops off some furniture and then drives 8 km south. (a) Sketch the path of the
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

4.47 km

Explanation:

If we draw the path of the van then we get a shape with two exposed points A and D. If we draw a line from point D perpendicular to BA we get point E. This gives us a right angled triangle ADE.

From Pythagoras theorem

AD² = AE² + ED²

AD=\sqrt{AE^2+ED^2}\\\Rightarrow AD=\sqrt{2^2+4^2}\\\Rightarrow AD=\sqrt{20}\\\Rightarrow AD=4.47\ km

Hence, the van is 4.47 km from its initial point
