e did the elements heavier than hydrogen and helium come from? The terrestrial planets are made almost entirely of elements heavier than hydrogen and helium. According to modern science, where did the elements heavier than hydrogen and helium come from? They were produced by stars that lived and died before our solar system was born. They have been present in the universe since its birth. They were produced by gravity in the solar nebula as it collapsed. They were made by chemical reactions in interstellar gas.

Answer:

They were produced by stars that lived and died before our solar system was born.

Explanation:

According to what it's understood today, all elements heavier than hydrogen (including helium and excluding some that were created in laboratories) are created through nuclear fusion in the core of stars.

They start fusing hydrogen into helium, then as the star grows older helium is fused into beryllium and so on for all the periodic table.

So as far as science understands it today it's a literal truth that we are made of stars. (as almost everything else)

An artist working on a piece of metal in his forging studio plunges the hot metal into oil in order to harden it. The metal piec
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

The temperature of the metal is  T_m  =  376.8 ^o C

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The mass of the metal is  M =  60 \ kg

     The specific heat of the metal is  c_p  =  0.1027 kcal/(kg \cdot ^oC)

       The mass of the oil is M_o  =  810 \ kg

       The temperature of the oil is  T_o  =  35^oC

       The specific heat of oil is  c_o  =  0.7167 kcal/(kg \cdot ^oC )

       The equilibrium temperature is T_e  =  39 ^oC

According to the law of energy conservation

     Heat lost by metal  =  heat gained by the oil

So  

   The quantity  of heat lost by the metal is mathematically represented as

               Q =  - Mc_p \Delta T

=>            Q =  -Mc_p (T_m  -  T_c)

Where T_ m  the temperature of metal before immersion

The negative sign show heat lost

The quantity  of gained t by the metal is mathematically represented as      

           Q =  M_o c_o \Delta T

=>        Q =  M_o c_o (T_c - T_o)

So  

         Mc_p (T_m  -  T_c)   =   M_o c_o (T_c - T_o)

substituting values

          - 60 * 0.1027 (T_m  - 39)   =   810 * 0.7167 *  (39 - 35)

=>       T_m  =  376.8 ^o C
