In a well thought out and coherent paragraph, explain how stars are categorized in an HR Diagram

1 answer:

3 0

The Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram is a graphical tool that astronomers use to classify stars according to their luminosity, spectral type, color, temperature and evolutionary stage. Stars in the stable phase of hydrogen burning lie along the Main Sequence according to their mass.

60 POINTS ANSWER CORRECTLY

ohaa [14]

Answer:

C ) 1.53

Explanation:

The critical angle of a material is given by the formula

$sin c = \frac{1}{n}$

where

c is the critical angle

n is the refractive index

This formula is valid if the second medium is air (which is the case of the problem).

In this problem, we know the critical angle:

$c=40.8^{\circ}$

Therefore we can rearrange the equation to find the refractive index:

$n=\frac{1}{sin c}=\frac{1}{sin 40.8^{\circ}}=1.53$

The difference between adaptation and natural selection is that adaptation is the characteristic while natural selection is the mechanism that increases the probability that an advantageous characteristic is passed on and becomes commonplace.

The probability of breaking a tree branch increases

inessss [21]

Answer:

Its due to moment of force. Explanation: Possibility of breaking the branch increases when a person goes to the tip of the branch due to moment of force. Due to moment of force, branch tend to bend downward when we go at the tip of branch.

Kyle, a 95.0 kg football player, leaps straight up into the air (with no horizontal velocity) to catch a pass. He catches the 0.

babymother [125]

Answer:

The initial speed of the ball was 26.2 m/s

Explanation:

When the football player is in the air at his maximum height the vertical component of velocity is zero, To obtain the horizontal velocity when the player catches the ball we need to apply the linear momentum conservation theorem:

$m_1*v_{o1}+m_2*v_{o2}=m_t*v_f\\0.430kg*(v)+m_2*(0)=mt*vt$

we need to obtain the time taken to go down.

$y=Y_o+v_o*t-\frac{1}{2}g*t^2\\\\0=0.589-4.9t^2\\solving:\\t_1=0.346s\\$

We have a horizontal displacement and the time taken to stop, so:

$v_f=\frac{d}{t}=\frac{0.0409m}{0.346s}=0.118m/s$

so:

$0.430kg*(v)+m_2*(0)=(m1+m2)*vt\\v=\frac{(95.0kg+0.430kg)*0.118m/s}{0.430kg}\\\\v=26.2m/s$
