Answer:

Because matter has been squeezed into a tiny space.

Explanation:

According to NASA, this can happen when a star is dying.

A black hole has no more gravity than the same amount of matter in any other form.

But remember that the gravitational forces are stronger as you get closer to the center of the body. The mass of a black hole is packed into such a small size (theoretically zero !) that you can get very close to its center. THAT'S where its gravity is hugely strong.

Earth Atmosfear is uniqe amongst the planets and is able to support life because it contains a large amount of __?
kiruha [24]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The abundance of oxygen in our atmosphere and the presence of liquid water on the surface of our planet makes our "Pale Blue Dot" stand out in contrast to the other planets in the solar system — a unique and fragile home for life.

A raft of mass 199 kg carries two swimmers of mass 52 kg and 70 kg. The raft is initially floating at rest. The two swimmers sim
Minchanka [31]

To solve this problem we will apply the concept related to the conservation of the Momentum. We will then start considering that the amount of initial momentum must be equal to the amount of final momentum. Considering that all the objects at the initial moment have the same initial velocity (Zero, since they start from rest) the final moment will be equivalent to the multiplication of the mass of each object by the velocity of each object, so

Initial Momentum = Final Momentum

(m_B+m_1+m_2)v_i = m_1v_1+m_2v_2+m_Bv_B

Here,

m_B =  mass of Raft

m_1 = Mass of swimmers 1

m_2 = Mass of swimmers 2

v_i = Initial velocity (of the three objects)

v_B = Velocity of Raft

Replacing,

(199+52+70)*0 = (52)(4)+(70)(-4)+199v_B

Solving for v_B

vB = \frac{72}{199}

v_B = 0.3618m/s

Therefore the velocity the rarft start to move is 0.3618m/s

An object-spring system undergoes simple harmonic motion with an amplitude A. Does the total energy change if the mass is double
son4ous [18]

Answer: No, The energy will remain the same

Explanation: Doubling the mass and leaving the amplitude unchanged won't have any effect on the total energy of the system.

At maximum displacement, E=0.5kA^2

Where E = total energy

K = spring constant

A = Amplitude

From the formula above : Total Energy is independent of mass,. Therefore, total energy won't be affected by Doubling the mass value of the object.

Also when the object is at a displacement 'x' from its equilibrium position.

E = Potential Energy(P.E) + Kinetic Energy(K.E)

P.E = 0.5kx^2

Where x = displacement from equilibrium position

E = Total Energy

K. E= E-0.5kx^2

From the relation above, total energy is independent of its mass and therefore has no effect on the total energy.

What is Young’s interference? (b) How should the number of observable interference fringes change as the distance between the tw
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

b) increase.

c) decrease.

d) Fringe is said to be a missing fringe  when interference maxima overlap with diffraction minima.

Explanation:

a ) Young's interference is the interference phenomenon related to the light waves. Interference  is the superposition of light waves . It proved the wave nature of light .  Interference can be either constructive or destructive.

b) If the distance between the two slits increases, the number of fringes also increases. d sinθ = m λ. Here d is the slit width and m is the order of fringes. It shows that as d increases, m also increases.

c) Similarly, as d decreases , number of fringes decrease.

d) Fringe is said to be a missing fringe  when interference maxima overlap with diffraction minima.
