Some of the interstellar gas in our Galaxy has been heated to millions of degrees, a temperature that surprised astronomers when

it was first discovered. How do we now think that gas between stars gets that hot?

Answer:

Explanation:

As the gases in the galaxy contracts due to the gravitational pull due to which the pressure inside the lump of gases increases, by the ideal gas equation, Pressure is directly proportional to the temperature, so the temperature of the gas lump increases.

Trava [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

kinetic energy = 14.1 MJ = 14.1 x 10⁶ J

Let radius of flywheel be r .

volume of flywheel = π r² x t where t is thickness

= 3.14 x r² x .113 m³

= .04 r² m³

mass = volume x density

= .04 r² x 7800 = 312.73 r²kg

moment of inertia I = 1 / 2 mass x radius²

= .5 x 312.73 r² x r²

= 156.37 r⁴ kg m²

angular velocity ω = 2π x 93/60

= 9.734 rad /s

kinetic energy = 1/2 Iω² where ω is angular velocity

= .5 x 156.37 r⁴ x 9.734²

= 7408.08 r⁴

Given

7408.08 r⁴ =  14.1 x 10⁶

r⁴ = .19 x 10⁴

r = .66 x 10

= 6.60 m .

Diameter = 13.2 m

b )

centripetal acceleration of a point on its rim = ω² r

= 9.734² x 6.6

= 625.35 m /s²

Ferns that eject spores generally do so in pairs, with two spores flying off in opposite directions. The structure from which th
Furkat [3]

Answer:

It cancels recoil.

Explanation:

For each action there is an equal an opposite reaction.

The principle of conservation of momentum tell us that if a single spore were ejected the fern would suffer a recoil from it. This recoil would take energy and speed from the spore. But if they are ejected in pairs the recoil is canceled and all the energy is transferred to the spores resulting in higher speeds.

Es frecuente que en las instalaciones eléctricas domésticas se utilice alambre de cobre de 2.05 mm de diámetro. Determine la res
Tasya [4]

Answer:

The resistance is 0.124 ohm.

Explanation:

It is common for domestic electrical installations to use copper wire with a diameter of 2.05 mm. Determine the resistance of such a wire with a length of 24.0 m.

diameter, d = 2.05 mm

radius, r = 1.025 mm

Length, L = 24 m

resistivity of copper = 1.7 x 10^-8 ohm m

Let the resistance is R.

R =\rho \frac{L}{A}\\\\R = \frac {1.7\times10^{-8}\times 24}{3.14\times1.025\times1.025\times 10^{-6}}\\\\R = 0.124 ohm
