Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

The acceleration of a ball rolling down an inclined plane would be greater than that of the acceleration of a ball rolling up if acted upon by a force of equal magnitude. For a ball rolling down an inclined plane, the acceleration due to gravity (gsinθ) acts in the direction of motion of the ball thereby leading to an increase in the acceleration of the ball; while for a balling rolling upwards, the acceleration due to gravity acts in the direction opposite to the motion of the ball thereby leading to a decrease in the acceleration of the ball.

An astronomy student, for her PhD, really needs to estimate the age of a cluster of stars. Which of the following would be part

LiRa [457]

Answer:

A. plot an H-R diagram for the stars in the cluster.

Explanation:

A star cluster can be defined as a constellation of stars, due to gravitational force, which has the same origin.

The astronomy student would have to plot an H-R diagram for the stars in the cluster and determine the age of the cluster by observing the turn-off point. The turn-off is majorly as a result of gradual depletion of the source of energy of the star. Thus, it projects off the constellation.
