Answer:

A star can be determined by its mass. The longer or bigger mass the shorter the life of the star.

Explanation:

A star's life depends on the mass of the star. The mass depends on the matter of nebula. The nebula is a giant cloud that is made up of gas and particles that are responsible for the birth of a star.

As time passes the hydrogen gas is pulled in the cloud by the gravity and it starts to spin at its center around. It gets start heat and becomes the protostar.

The hydrogen presentation starts to convert into helium with the help of nuclear fusion. These explosions make the creation and to give the birth to star by a process.

If we compare the force of gravity too strong nuclear force we would conclude that

Yuri [45]

The force of gravity is much weaker than the strong nuclear force. But the strong nuclear force only acts over short distances, such as within the nuclues. The gravitational force can act over infinite distance.

How could you create an investigation to determine the pitch of this wave?

Musya8 [376]

Answer:

In order to make a sound wave have a higher pitch you increase the frequency.

In order to increase the volume of a sound wave, you have to increase the amplitude.

Hope this helps!

A sprinter accelerates from rest to 10.0 m/s in 1.28 s . Part A Part complete What is her acceleration in m/s2? a a = 7.81 m/s2

Mashutka [201]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial speed of sprinter, u = 0

Final speed of sprinter, v = 10 m/s

Time taken, t = 1.28 s

a. We need to find the acceleration of sprinter. It can be calculated using first equation of motion as :

$a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}$

$a=\dfrac{10\ m/s}{1.28\ s}$

$a=7.81\ m/s^2$

b. Final speed of the sprinter, v = 36 km/h

Time, t = 0.000355 h

Acceleration, $a=\dfrac{36}{0.000355}$

$a=101408.45\ km/h^2$

Hence, this is the required solution.

In a 100 mm diameter horizontal pipe, a venturimeter of 0.5 contraction ratio has been fitted. The head of water on the meter wh

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

the rate of flow = 29.28 ×10⁻³ m³/s or 0.029 m³/s

Explanation:

Given:

Diameter of the pipe = 100mm = 0.1m

Contraction ratio = 0.5

thus, diameter at the throat of venturimeter = 0.5×0.1m = 0.05m

The formula for discharge through a venturimeter is given as:

$Q=C_d\frac{A_1A_2}{\sqrt{A_1^2-A_2^2}}\sqrt{2gh}$

Where,

$C_d$ is the coefficient of discharge = 0.97 (given)

A₁ = Area of the pipe

A₁ = $\frac{\pi}{4}0.1^2 = 7.85\times 10^{-3}m^2$

A₂ = Area at the throat

A₂ = $\frac{\pi}{4}0.05^2 = 1.96\times 10^{-3}m^2$

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

Now,

The gauge pressure at throat = Absolute pressure - The atmospheric pressure

⇒The gauge pressure at throat = 2 - 10.3 = -8.3 m (Atmosphric pressure = 10.3 m of water)

Thus, the pressure difference at the throat and the pipe = 3- (-8.3) = 11.3m

Substituting the values in the discharge formula we get

$Q=0.97\frac{7.85\times 10^{-3}\times 1.96\times 10^{-3}}{\sqrt{7.85\times 10^{-3}^2-1.96\times 10^{-3}^2}}\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 11.3}$

or

$Q=\frac{0.97\times15.42\times 10^{-6}\times 14.88}{7.605\times 10^{-3}}$

or

Q = 29.28 ×10⁻³ m³/s

Hence, the rate of flow = 29.28 ×10⁻³ m³/s or 0.029 m³/s
