A nova occurs when
eimsori [14]

C. hydrogen accreted onto a white dwarf from a close companion rapidly fuses to helium, releasing a large amount of energy.

The accreted material, composed mainly of hydrogen, is compacted on the surface of the white dwarf due to the intense gravitational force on that place. As material accumulates, The white dwarf becomes increasingly hot, until it reaches the critical temperature for ignition of nuclear fusion.

A plane mirror of circular shape with radius r=20cm is fixed to the ceiling. A bulb is to be placed on the axis of the mirror. A
KIM [24]

Answer:

0.75 m

Explanation:

Let's call the distance between the bulb and the mirror x.

The bulb and the length of the mirror form a triangle.  The mirror and the illuminated area on the floor form a trapezoid.  If we extend the lines from the mirror edge to the reflected image of the bulb, we turn that trapezoid into a large triangle.  This triangle and the small triangle are similar.  So we can say:

x / 0.4 = (3 + x) / 2

Solving for x:

2x = 0.4 (3 + x)

2x = 1.2 + 0.4 x

1.6 x = 1.2

x = 0.75

So the bulb should located no more than 0.75 m from the mirror.

What is the angle of the 2nd order bright fringe produced by two slits that are 8.25x10-5m apart if the wavelength of the incide
dexar [7]

In order to calculate the angle, we can use the formula below for a constructive interference (the interference is constructive because the fringe is bright):

d\sin\theta=m\lambda

Where d is the distance between the slits, m is the order of the interference and lambda is the wavelength.

So, using d = 8.25 * 10^-5, m = 2 and lambda = 4.5 * 10^-7, we have:

\begin{gathered} 8.25\cdot10^{-5}\cdot\sin\theta=2\cdot4.5\cdot10^{-7}\\ \\ \sin\theta=\frac{9\cdot10^{-7}}{8.25\cdot10^{-5}}\\ \\ \sin\theta=1.091\cdot10^{-2}\\ \\ \theta=0.625° \end{gathered}

Therefore the correct option is the second one.

An attacker at the base of a castle wall 3.60 m high throws a rock straight up with speed 8.00 m/s from a height of 1.70 m above
ryzh [129]

Answer:

we can say here that | v² - u² | is the same for upward as for downward and change in the speed is different here so | v - u | same whenever rock travel up, down for same time and not same distances

Explanation:

given data

base = 3.60 m

speed u = 8 m/s

height = 1.70 m

to find out

check change in speed

solution

we know here formula for v  that is

v² = u² - 2gh      ............1        for upward speed

v² = u² + 2gh     ............2        for projected speed

so here put all value and find v with h = 3.60 - 1.70 = 1.9 m

v² = 8² - 2(9.8) 1.9  = 26.76

v² = 8² + 2(9.8) 1.9   = 101.24

v = 5.173  m/s    ..............3

v = 10.061 m/s   ...................4

so change in speed form 3 and 4 equation

change in speed = v - u = 8 - 5.173  = 2.827 m/s     .................5

change in speed = v - u = 10.061 - 8 = 2.061 m/s     ..................6

so now we can say here that | v² - u² | is the same for upward as for downward and change in the speed is different here so | v - u | same whenever rock travel up, down for same time and not same distances
