Explanation:

Understanding that stars are naturally quite hot, imagine I pulled a piece of hot iron from a furnace. It would glow a bright red, and then slowly fade to black as the iron cools.

White dwarfs glow for the same reason - they are HOT!

1. A baseball is hit straight up at a speed of 45 meters per second.
Sidana [21]

Answer:

a) 103.32 m

b) 9.18 s

Explanation:

a) Let's use the knowledge that at the top of its trajectory, the baseball will have a final velocity of 0 m/s.

The acceleration due to gravity is -9.8 m/s², assuming the upwards direction is positive and the downwards direction is negative.

The initial velocity of the baseball is 45 m/s.

We are trying to find the vertical displacement of the baseball, Δx, and we have the variables v, a, and v₀.

Find the constant acceleration equation that contains all four of these variables:

  • v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

Substitute the known values into the equation.

  • (0)² = (45)² + 2(-9.8)Δx
  • 0 = 2025 - 19.6Δx
  • -2025 = -19.6Δx
  • Δx = 103.32

The maximum height of the ball before it falls back down is 103.32 m.

b) Now we want to solve for time t. Find a constant acceleration equation that contains three known variables.

  • v = v₀ + at

Substitute known values into this equation.

  • 0 = 45 + (-9.8)t
  • -45 = -9.8t
  • t = 4.59183673

Remember that this is only half of the baseball's flight since we are using the final velocity for when the ball is halfway through its trajectory.

To solve for the total time the baseball is in the air, double the time t we solved for.

  • 2t = 9.18367346

The baseball is in the air for 9.18 s.

Tunicates resemble a _____ on the sea floor. rod square sac hole
zubka84 [21]

Answer: sac

Tunicates are sea squirts that are found in the marine water. These animals remains attached to the rocks and the sea beds. They exhibit a body shape which looks like a barrel. The barrel has two openings called as siphons. These siphon helps in the intake of the food particles and oxygen. These animals look like sac on the sea floor.
