How is the lifetime of a star related to its mass?

Physics

Flauer [41]4 years ago

Stars having less mass collapses early than those with more mass. This can be explained by Einstein's equation E=mc².
According to this equation, mass of stars is converted into light due to thermonuclear reactions occuring in the core of star which acts as engine of the stars. This thermonuclear reactions keeps star alive. Thermonuclear reactions occurs slowly in massive stars hence massive stars live more than light stars.

What is the energy of an electromagnetic wave that has a frequency of
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

Energy, \; E = 2.6504 * 10^{-34} \; Joules

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Frequency = 4.0 x 10⁹ Hz

Planck's constant, h = 6.626 x 10-34 J·s.

To find the energy of the electromagnetic wave;

Mathematically, the energy of an electromagnetic wave is given by the formula;

E = hf

Where;

E is the energy possessed by a wave.

h represents Planck's constant.

f is the frequency of a wave.

Substituting the values into the formula, we have;

Energy, \; E = 4.0 x 10^{9} * 6.626 x 10^{-34}

Energy, \; E = 2.6504 * 10^{-34} \; Joules

Jon's bathtub is rectangular and its base is 18 ft2. (a) How fast is the water level rising if Jon is filling the tub at a rate
Kitty [74]

Answer:

The water level in the bath tub is rising at a rate of 0.0111 ft/s

Explanation:

Volume of the bath tub = (Area of base) × (height)

Area of base = 18 ft² (constant)

Height = h (variable)

V = 18h

(dV/dt) = 18 (dh/dt)

If (dV/dt) = 0.2 ft³/s

0.2 = 18 (dh/dt)

(dh/dt) = (0.2/18)

(dh/dt) = 0.0111 ft/s

Hope this Helps!!!

What is a consequence of the second law of thermodynamics?
marshall27 [118]

Answer:Increase in the entropy of the universe are the result of chemical reactions

Explanation:

The second law tells about the quality of energy such that any isolated system tends to become more disordered. Any natural Process occurring on its own is irreversible and entropy is increasing for that process.  

The entropy of the Universe is increasing which is the result of chemical reactions. Any chemical reaction which increases the number of gas molecules will generate more entropy. Entropy in simple meaning is the order of randomness.

A gas has four moles under a pressure of 5.4 atm has a volume of 120 L. What is the
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

1973. K

Explanation:

PV=nRT

(5.4)(120)=(4)(0.0821)T

648=(0.3284)T

1973. = T

Using the ideal gas equation, T is measured in Kelvin.

Or, you could isolate T:

T = PV/nR

The answer is the same.
