What do we mean by the interstellar medium?

Physics
1 answer:
Sphinxa [80]3 years ago

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The <u>interstellar medium</u> is the content of matter and energy that exists between stars within a galaxy.

In this sense, two components can be distinguished in the interstellar medium: dust particles and gas.

Dust represents 1% of the interstellar medium in mass, while the gas (consisting mainly of hydrogen and helium) represents 99% of the mass of the interstellar medium.

It should be noted that the interstellar matter is not uniformly distributed but is concentrated in molecular clouds.

Assume you are going to race the three objects (hollow sphere, disk and ring used in Experiment 8.2) by releasing them from rest
Ann [662]

Answer:

a. The disk

b. Because it has the smallest rotational inertia

Explanation:

a. Which object do you expect to reach the bottom of the inclined plan first?

I would expect the disk to reach the bottom first.

b. Why?

This is because the disk has the smallest rotational inertia.

The rotational inertial of the hollow sphere, disk and ring are 2/3MR², 1/2MR² and MR² respectively.

Since the three objects are rolling from the same height, they have the same mechanical energy.

But, since the disk has the smallest rotational inertia, it would have the smallest rotational kinetic energy and largest translational kinetic energy.  The disk's smaller rotational kinetic energy will cause  to rotate less but translate more than the other objects and thus reach the bottom first.

A refrigerator receives 240 V of electricity. If it uses 32 A of current, what is the resistance of the refrigerator?
Leokris [45]

\mathfrak{\huge{\orange{\underline{\underline{AnSwEr:-}}}}}

Actually Welcome to the Concept of the Ohms Law,

According to the Ohms law,

V = I*R, where, V = Voltage, I = Current, R = resistance,

so here given as, V = 240 V, I = 32 A,

so we get as, R = 240/32

R = 7.5 ohms,

===> The resistant R is ==> 7.5 ohms.
