3. Will the weight of a kg of iron in air and the weight of a kg of cotton in air
larisa [96]

Answer:

A kg of cotton is heavier.

Explanation:

Because in air, cotton gets upthrust that's why weighing machine gives less weight than its actually have.

for eg: If cotton has 800g weight, the machine shows a kg(1kg) when measure in air due to upthrust.

I hope this will be helpful for you.

What is the resistance of a 15 ampere current with 8 volts of potential difference?
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Resistance in circuit = 0.53 ohm (Approx.)

Explanation:

Given:

Flow of current in circuit = 15 amp

Potential difference = 8 Volts

Find:

Resistance in circuit

Computation:

In an electrical system, resistance is a stopper of a material to electric current.

Resistance in circuit = Potential difference / Flow of current in circuit

Resistance in circuit = 8 / 15

Resistance in circuit = 0.53 ohm (Approx.)

Degeneracy pressure stops the crush of gravity in all the following except
quester [9]

Answer:

A very massive main- sequence star

Explanation:

Degeneracy pressure refers to pressure expend by dense material , which is composed of fermions, which is an example of electrons in a white dwarf star. According to Pauli exclusion principle, which states that no two fermions can exist in the same quantum state, actually give details about the pressure.

When there is stellar masses that is less than about 1.44 of that of solar masses, there will be gravitational fall in the energy , and the energy will not be sufficient to produce the neutrons of a neutron star, therefore, the fall is abstruptly stopped through the electron degeneracy to form white dwarfs.this result to the creation of an effective pressure that further prevents gravitational fall.
