Answer:

  F_net = 264, 26 pound

Explanation:

For this exercise we use Newton's second law

               F_net = F_int - F_outside

where the force can be found from the definition of pressure

              P = F / A

              F = P A

we substitute

               F_net = P_inside  A - P_outside A

               F_net = A (P_inside - P_outside)

indicate that the pressure on the outside is 25% less than the pressure on the inside

               P_outside = 0.25 P_inside

The area is

               A = L W

we substitute

              F_net = L W P_inside (1-0.25)

         

let's calculate

suppose the pressure inside is atmospheric pressure

              P_inside= P_atmospheric = 1,013 10⁵ Pa = 14.7 PSI

              F_net = 8.1 3 14.5 0.75

              F_net = 264, 26 pound

Ghella [55]

Answer:

Period of brightness variation and luminosity.

Explanation:

The Cepheid variables are used as distance indicators. This requires estimation of periods and (usually) intensity-mean magnitudes in order to establish a period—apparent luminosity relation. It is particularly important for the techniques employed to be as accurate and efficient as possible.

Why is traveling between the stars (by creatures like us) difficult?
mariarad [96]

Answer:

Stars are at large distances that even light takes thousands of years to reach us from there.

for example, alpha centauri is 4300 light years away from earth and it is considered the nearest star to us, this means that light from there takes 4300 years to reach us and with a spaceships that can move with the speed of light is would take us 4300 years to get there which is imposible to live for that long.

hence, it is difficult to move between the stars.
