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

Physics
1 answer:
Flauer [41]4 years ago
6 0
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.

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

T = 15.03°C

Explanation:

given data:

copper specific heat = Sc = 0.385 J/g °C

iron specific iron = Si = 0.450 J/g °C

specific heat of ethanol = Se = 2.46 J/g °C

net heat loss is equal to zero

(m*S*\Delta T)_{copper} +(m*S*\Delta T)_ {iron} +(m*S*\Delta T)_ {ethanol} = 0

150*0.385 *( T - (-50)) + 200*0.450*(T - 120) + 300*2.46 * (T -20) = 0

57.75( T - (-50)) + 0.90(T - 120) +738(T -20) = 0

57.75T + 2887.5 + 0.90T - 108 + 738T - 14760 = 0

57.75T + 0.90T+738T = - 2887.5 + 108+14760

796.65T= 11980.5

T = 15.03°C

An ambulance is rapidly approaching you at a stop light. What happens to the frequency and pitch of the sound as the ambulance d
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

A )

Explanation:

This change in frequency observation occur due to doppler effect

if the wave source moves,In the time between one wave peak being emitted and the next, the source will have moved so that the shells will no longer be concentric. The wavefronts will get closer together in front of the source as it travels and will be further apart behind it.  (see the graph)

when the person standing still in front of the ambulance, he will observe a <em>higher frequency </em>than before as the source travels towards them.

f_(observed)=\frac{V_(wave)}{V_(wave)-V_(source)} *f_(original)

The pitch we hear depends on the frequency of the sound wave.

A high frequency corresponds to a high pitch

as we hear a higher frequency , it makes the <em>pitch higher</em> too
