Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions.. The most massive stars, with eight times the mass of the sun or more, will never become white dwarfs<span>. Instead, at the end of their lives, they will explode in a violent supernova, leaving behind a neutron star or </span>black hole.

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

El peso del cartel es 397,97 N

Explanation:

La tensión dada en cada segmento del cable = 2000 N

El desplazamiento vertical del cable = 50 cm = 0,5 m

La distancia entre los polos = 10 m

La posición del letrero en el cable = En el medio = 5

El ángulo de inclinación del cable a la vertical = tan⁻¹ (0.5 / 5) = 5.71 °

El peso del letrero = La suma del componente vertical de la tensión en cada lado del letrero

El peso del signo = 2000 × sin (5.71 grados) + 2000 × sin (5.71 grados) = 397.97 N

El peso del signo = 397,97 N.

Which of the following would decrease the magnetic field around a wire?
shusha [124]
The correct answer is
<span>A. decreasing the current

In fact, the magnetic field produced by a current carrying wire is given by
</span>B(r) =  \frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi r}
<span>where
</span>\mu_0 is the vacuum permeability
<span>I is the current in the wire
r is the distance from the wire at which the field is calculated

We see from the formula that the intensity of the field, B, is directly proportional to the current I, so if the current decreases, the magnetic field strength B decreases as well.</span>

A projectile is shot straight up from the earth's surface at a speed of 10,000 km/hr. how high does it go?
mezya [45]
Naturally we assume that 10000 km/hr is initial velocity (same as being shot from a cannon), and no air resistance. With so high a velocity, the effect of diminishing gravity with increasing radius must be taken into account, so you use an energy solution. M is earth mass, r is earth radius. 
KE/m = (9000000/3600)^2/2 = 3858025 J/kg 
ΔPE/m = (PE(at height) - PE(at surface))/m = -GM/(r+h) + GM/r 
KE/m = ΔPE/m 
KE/m - GM/r = -GM/(r+h)
h = -GM / (KE/m - GM/r) - r = 335665.44 m 
(Using G = 6.673E-11 Nm^2/kg^2, M = 5.9742E24 kg, r = 6378100 m)

If the mass of a material is 115 grams and the volume of the material is 16 cm3, what would the density of the material be?
hjlf
Well, density is mass/volume. So what's 115 g / 16 cm3? That'll get you your density. Remember that density will be in g/cm3!

A 24 kg rock is resting on the floor. How much potential energy does it have?
nikitadnepr [17]

Relative to the floor it's resting on, its height is zero,
so its potential energy is zero.

Relative to the next floor down, its height could be
three or four meters, and it could have plenty of
potential energy ... if you cut out a circle in the floor
all around the rock, and let it fall to next floor down,
it could really do some damage.  Look out below ! !
