The bigger one as the luminosity has a direct exponential relationship with R of the star so the star which has more surface area will be more luminous than the smaller one

hydraulic lift is to be used to lift a 2100-kg weight by putting a weight of 25 kg on a piston with a diameter of 10 cm. Determi
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

840 cm

Explanation:

Note: A hydraulic press operate based on pascal's principle.

From pascal's principle

W₁/d₁ = W₂/d₂...................... Equation 1

Where W₁ and W₂ are the first and second weight, and d₁ and d₂ are the  first and second diameter of the piston.

make d₁ the subject of the equation

d₁ = W₁×d₂/W₂................ Equation 2

Given: W₁ = 2100 kg, W₂ = 25 kg, d₂ = 10 cm = 0.1 m.

Substitute these values into equation 2

d₁ = 2100(0.1)/25

d₁ = 8.4 m

d₁ = 840 cm

44. A rescue helicopter is hovering over a person whose boat has sunk. One of the rescuers throws a life preserver straight down
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

18.4 m

Explanation:

(a)

The known variables in this problem are:

u = 1.40 m/s is the initial vertical velocity (we take downward direction as positive direction)

t = 1.8 s is the duration of the fall

a = g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

(b)

The vertical distance covered by the life preserver is given by

d=ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2

If we substitute all the values listed in part (a), we find

d=(1.40 m/s)(1.8 s)+\frac{1}{2}(9.8 m/s^2)(1.8 s)^2=18.4m

Compare two processes we use to measure the age of Earth and its parts.
yan [13]

Answer:

Generally speaking, scientists have developed four different methods of determining the age of the earth. By using these methods, or a combination of them, the age of geological formations created by past events and even the fossilized bones of prehistoric animals can be determined.

Based on the research done by scientists, the Geologic Column, a graph that illustrates earth age, was developed. The Column, with its names for the epochs and eras of time, illustrates what scientists think was taking place in earth history. A small version of the Geologic Column is pictured at the right.

Explanation:

I hope this helps :)

dusya [7]

Answer:

D:   The side of Magnet A that's attracted to Magnet B's south pole must be Magnet A's north pole

Explanation:

D:  The side of Magnet A that's attracted to Magnet B's south pole must be Magnet A's north pole because

1) opposite poles attract each other

2) similar poles repel each other

3)magnetic lines of force start at the north pole and end at the south pole

Why should it take significantly more energy to move a beam of alpha particles than a beam of beta minus (β–) particles?
a_sh-v [17]
An 'alpha particle' is the same thing as the nucleus of a helium atom ... 
a little bundle made of 2 protons and 2 neutrons.

A 'beta' particle is an electron.

The mass of an alpha particle is more than 7,000 times the mass of 
an electron, so it certainly takes more energy to get it moving.
