The "gas" is ionized and may correctly be described as a fourth state of matter - a plasma - rather than a gas. Both a gas and a plasma would expand indefinitely if not contained somehow but the ionized particles of a plasma could be controlled electromagnetically whereas a gas could not. A typical plasma is contained in an illuminated neon sign.

Choose the answer choice that BEST completes the following sentence. About four million tons of __________________ are converted
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

<em>About four million tons of </em><em><u>matter</u></em><em> are converted to energy in the Sun’s core every second</em>

Explanation:

<u>The Sun </u>

It's estimated that The Sun fuses near 600 million tons (6.10^9\ kg) of hydrogen into helium every second. As a result, 4 million tons of matter are converted to energy every second according to Einstein's equation E=mc^2

Why do baseball pitchers throw the ball at an angle that is slightly above the horizontal if they want the ball to reach at appr
lesantik [10]

Answer:

The angle above the horizontal at which the pitcher throws the ball determines the distance the ball travels before returning to the height at which it was thrown

Explanation:

The baseball is thrown as a projectile and the range, 'R', of the baseball which is the distance the baseball travels before the height above the ground returns to the initial height  is given given as follows;

R = \dfrac{u^2 \cdot sin(2\cdot \theta )}{g}

Where;

R = The range of the baseball = The horizontal distance away from the pitcher the ball reaches

u = The initial velocity with which the baseball was thrown

θ = The angle above horizontal a baseball pitcher throws the ball

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

From the the equation, when θ = 0, sin(θ) = sin(0) = 0 and the ball does not cover any horizontal distance before going lower than the height at which it was thrown, therefore, for the ball to travel further, the angle of launch, θ has to be larger than 0.
