What is the outcome of a star that runs out of hydrogen

Physics
1 answer:
givi [52]3 years ago
3 0
<h2>Answer: The nucleus becomes entirely helium.</h2>

To shine, the stars transform their hydrogen into helium by means of <u>nuclear fusion</u>. When at half of its life a star is without hydrogen, the nucleus becomes entirely helium and <u>the star declines, becoming colder and brighter due to the energy generated by the nuclear reactions, then the star begins to contract. </u>

Nevertheless, if the star is bigger, this helium will be also consumed and the nucleus transformed in Carbon, then in Oxigen, and so on. Being the last transformation Iron until the star delivers all its energy.

Note this process will depend on how massive the star is.

Manuel traveled 3 hours nonstop to​ Mexico, a total of 197 miles. He took a train part of the​ way, which averaged 70​mph, and t
Anton [14]

Answer:

1.7 hours

Explanation:

Time taken in the journey = 3 hours

Distance of the entire journey = 197 miles

Distance travelled on train = x

Distance travelled on bus = 197-x

Average speed of train = 70 mph

Average speed of bus = 60 mph

Time = Distance / Speed

\frac{x}{70}+\frac{197-x}{60}=3\\\Rightarrow \frac{6x+1379-7x}{420}=3\\\Rightarrow -x+1379=3\times 420\\\Rightarrow -x=1260-1379\\\Rightarrow x=119\ miles

Distance travelled by train = 119 miles

Time taken on train = 119 / 70 = 1.7 hours

Manuel spent 1.7 hours on the​ train

A spring with a spring constant kk of 100 pounds per foot is loaded with 1-pound weight and brought to equilibrium. it is then s
tino4ka555 [31]

Given:

k = 100 lb/ft, m = 1 lb / (32.2 ft/s) = 0.03106 slugs 

Solution:


F = -kx 
mx" = -kx 
x" + (k/m)x = 0 

characteristic equation: 
r^2 + k/m = 0 
r = i*sqrt(k/m) 

x = Asin(sqrt(k/m)t) + Bcos(sqrt(k/m)t) 

ω = sqrt(k/m) 
2π/T = sqrt(k/m) 
T = 2π*sqrt(m/k) 
T = 2π*sqrt(0.03106 slugs / 100 lb/ft) 
T = 0.1107 s (period) 

x(0) = 1/12 ft = 0.08333 ft 
x'(0) = 0 

1/12 = Asin(0) + Bcos(0) 
B = 1/12 = 0.08333 ft 

x' = Aω*cos(ωt) - Bω*sin(ωt) 
0 = Aω*cos(0) - (1/12)ω*sin(0) 
0 = Aω 
A = 0 

So B would be the amplitude. Therefore, the equation of motion would be x = 0.08333*cos[(2π/0.1107)t]

Which one of the following types of training involves 10 to 30 minutes of high-intensity exercise?
Goshia [24]

Correct answer choice is:



C. Medium range



Explanation:



Medium range exercises are used to gain extra strength and fitness. Usually, heavyweights are used with less number of repetitions. These sort of exercises are mostly the hardest t do. All you need is to have a high level of motivation and stamina, which can be gained by running or cycling.

Which one of the following statements best illustrates implicit memory?
Temka [501]
I believe the answer is A. <span>At age 40, after 15 years, George got on his old bike and found he could still ride it without falling on his face.
Implicit memory is the type of memory that we've acquired in the past and often used automatically/subconsciously.
Other examples of implicit memory is when we could do a certain task that we're used to do even without paying any attention.</span>

In an eslastic ,the momentum is_______and the mechanical energy is​
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

In an elastic collision, the momentum is conserved and the mechanical energy is conserved too.

Explanation:

There are two types of collisions:

- Elastic collision: in an elastic collision, the total momentum before and after the collision is conserved; also, the total mechanical energy before and after the collision is conserved.

- Inelastic collision: in an inelastic collision, the total momentum before and after the colllision is conserved, while the total mechanical energy is not conserved (in fact, part of the energy is converted into other forms of energy such that thermal energy, due to the presence of frictional forces)
