What allows a star to remain in stellar equilibrium?

Physics
1 answer:
nadya68 [22]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

A star is in equilibrium when the pressures inside the star balance out the force of gravity. The pressure is thermal pressure resulting from the fusion reactions taking place in the star's core. A star stays in equilibrium until the supply of hydrogen in the core is depleted.

In a stable star, the gas pressure pushing out from the center is equal with the gravity pulling atoms inward to the center – when these forces are equal, the star is at equilibrium. Once a star reaches equilibrium for the first time, it will start burning (fusing) hydrogen into helium.

What would be the net force and in what direction for the motion to be? The first one* and explain
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

11. 5 N to the left.

12. 10 N to the right.

Explanation:

11. Determination of the net force.

Force in the left direction (Fₗ) = 10 N

Force in the right direction (Fᵣ) = 5 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

The net force can be obtained as follow:

Fₙ = Fₗ – Fᵣ (Since the forces act in opposite direction)

Fₙ = 10 – 5

Fₙ = 5 N to left

Thus, the net force is 5 N to the left.

12. Determination of the net force.

Force in the right direction 1 (Fᵣ₁) = 5 N

Force in the right direction 2 (Fᵣ₂) = 5 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

The net force can be obtained as follow:

Fₙ = Fᵣ₁ + Fᵣ₂ (Since the forces act in the same direction)

Fₙ = 5 + 5

Fₙ = 10 N to the right

Thus, the net force is 10 N to the right.

Threshold potential refers to the membrane potential required to:
ivanzaharov [21]

B. initiate an action potential.

Action potentials are initiated when a depolarization reaches a threshold potential. This threshold potential varies, but is normally around 55 or 50 millivolts above the resting potential of the cell, which implies that the input current of sodium ions exceeds the output current of potassium ions.

Which statement about metals is true?
Gnom [1K]

All metals are solid at (our) living temperatures except for mercury which is a liquid. Metals are shiny for a while at least when properly finished. Metals are good conductors of both heat and electricity. This is due to the excess electrons in their valence clouds that facilitate energy transfer.What are 5 characteristics of metal?

Metals are lustrous, malleable, ductile, good conductors of heat and electricity

Silver conducts electricity better than any other metal.

Brass is an alloy made from zinc and copper.

Pure gold is too soft for many things so most gold is combined with other metals to make it stronger. ...

World time periods are often listed by the metal used.
