I think the correct answer is nebula. The life cycle of a star begins with a cloud of gas and dust called a nebula. It is a cloud of gas which is visible in the night sky as an indistinct bright patch. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

How can i prove the conservation of mechanical energy?

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

We can also prove the conservation of mechanical energy of a freely falling body by the work-energy theorem, which states that change in kinetic energy of a body is equal to work done on it. i.e. W=ΔK. And ΔE=ΔK+ΔU. Hence the mechanical energy of the body is conserved

What is the magnitude of the angular momentum (in kgm2/s) of a 40 g golf ball flying through the air and spinning at 4300 rpm af

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

$L=0.0045\ kg-m^2/s$

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a golf ball, m = 40 g = 0.04 kg

Its angular velocity, $\omega=4300\ rpm=450.29\ rad/s$

The radius of the sphere is 2.5 cm or 0.025 m

We need to find the magnitude of the angular momentum of the ball. It is given by the formula as follows:

$L=I\omega$

Where I is moment of inertia

For sphere, $I=\dfrac{2}{5}mr^2$

$L=\dfrac{2}{5}mr^2\omega\\\\L=\dfrac{2}{5}\times 0.04\times (0.025)^2\times 450.29\\\\L=0.0045\ kg-m^2/s$

So, the magnitude of the angular momentum of the sphere is $0.0045\ kg-m^2/s$ .

If 1495 j of heat is needed to raise the temperature of a 351 g sample of a metal from 55.0°c to 66.0°c, what is the specific he

forsale [732]

The amount of heat needed to increase the temperature of a substance by $\Delta T$ is given by
$Q= mC_s \Delta T$
where m is the mass of the substance, Cs is its specific heat capacity and $\Delta T$ is the increase of temperature.

If we re-arrange the formula, we get
$C_s = \frac{Q}{m \Delta T}$
And if we plug the data of the problem into the equation, we can find the specific heat capacity of the substance:
$C_s = \frac{1495 J}{(351 g)(66.0^{\circ}C-55.0^{\circ}C)}=0.39 J/g^{\circ}C$

When a sinusoidal wave with speed 20 m/s , wavelength 35 cm and amplitude of 1.0 cm passes, what is the maximum speed of a point

vova2212 [387]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to frequency as a function of speed and wavelength as well as the kinematic equations of simple harmonic motion

From the definition we know that the frequency can be expressed as

$f = \frac{v}{\lambda}$
