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.

A sound wave from a siren has an intensity of 111.2 W/m2 at a certain point, and a second sound wave from a nearby ambulance has
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

The intensity level of the sound wave due to the ambulance is 153.5 dB.

Explanation:

The intensity level of the sound wave due to the ambulance can be calculated using the following equation:

\beta = 10log(\frac{I}{I_{0}})

<u>Where</u>:

I: is the intensity of the sound wave from a siren = 111.2 W/m²      

I₀: is the reference intensity = 1.0x10⁻¹² W/m²

\beta = 10log(\frac{111.2 W/m^{2}}{1.0 \cdot 10^{-12} W/m^{2}}) = 140.5 dB

Now, since the second sound wave from a nearby ambulance has an intensity level 13 dB we have:

I_{a} = 13 dB + 140.5 dB = 153.5 dB

Therefore, the intensity level of the sound wave due to the ambulance is 153.5 dB.

I hope it helps you!

a 15 kg tv sots on a shelf at a height of 0.3 m. how much gravitational potential energy is added to the television when it is l
nata0808 [166]
Gravitational potential energy can be described as m*g*h (mass times gravity times height).

Originally,
15kg * 9.8m/s^2 *0.3 m = 44.1 kg*m^2/s^2 = 44.1 Joules.

After it is moved to a 1m shelf:
15kg * 9.8m/s * 1 = 147 kg*m^2/s^2= 147 Joules.

To find how much energy was added, we subtract final energy from initial energy:

147 J - 44.1 J = 102.9 Joules.
