What is an event horizon? Does our Sun have an event horizon around it?

Physics
1 answer:
STatiana [176]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The event horizon of a black hole can be thought of either as the place around the black hole where the speed you need to escape becomes greater than the speed of light or as the place where the warping of spacetime around a collapsed star becomes so great that all straight lines pointing outward actually become curved paths bringing you back in. Only black holes have event horizons, so our Sun, which is a star in happy main-sequence equilibrium, cannot have one.

If the coefficient of kinetic friction between tires and dry pavement is 0.84, what is the shortest distance in which you can st
liberstina [14]

Answer:

The shortest distance in which you can stop the automobile by locking the brakes is 53.64 m

Explanation:

Given;

coefficient of kinetic friction, μ = 0.84

speed of the automobile, u = 29.0 m/s

To determine the  the shortest distance in which you can stop an automobile by locking the brakes, we apply the following equation;

v² = u² + 2ax

where;

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

x is the shortest distance

First we determine a;

From Newton's second law of motion

∑F = ma

F is the kinetic friction that opposes the motion of the car

-Fk = ma

but, -Fk = -μN

-μN = ma

-μmg = ma

-μg = a

- 0.8 x 9.8 = a

-7.84 m/s² = a

Now, substitute in the value of a in the equation above

v² = u² + 2ax

when the automobile stops, the final velocity, v = 0

0 = 29² + 2(-7.84)x

0 = 841 - 15.68x

15.68x = 841

x = 841 / 15.68

x = 53.64 m

Thus, the shortest distance in which you can stop the automobile by locking the brakes is 53.64 m

Show your working please ​
saw5 [17]

Explanation:

There's not enough information in the problem to solve it.  We need to know either the initial speed of the lorry, or the time it takes to stop.

For example, if we assume the initial speed of the lorry is 25 m/s, then we can find the rate of deceleration:

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

(0 m/s)² = (25 m/s)² + 2a (50 m)

a = -6.25 m/s²

We can then use Newton's second law to find the force:

F = ma

F = (7520 kg) (-6.25 m/s²)

F = -47000 N

How hydrogen and helium atoms diffrent
Rama09 [41]

Hydrogen has one proton whereas helium has two protons in its nucleus.

<h3>How hydrogen and helium atoms different from one another?</h3>

Atoms of hydrogen have a single proton in their nucleus and a single electron in the lowest energy level while on the other hand, Helium atoms have two protons in the nucleus  and two electrons in the lowest energy level. In this way, we can say that the atomic number of hydrogen is 1 whereas the atomic number of helium is 2 because of the presence of two protons. Hydrogen atom has no neutron while on the other hand, the helium atom has one neutron in its nucleus.

So we can conclude that Hydrogen has one proton whereas helium has two protons in its nucleus.

Frequency is a measure of how many waves pass by in one second. <br> a. true <br> b. false
Elanso [62]
True. Waves are measured in Hz. Wavelength is also measured in metres (m) - it is a length after all. The frequency, f, of a wave is the number of waves passing a point in a certain time. We normally use a time of one second, so this gives frequency the unit hertz (Hz), since one hertz is equal to one wave per second.
