Energy flows with kinetic energy
When a star uses up all of it's energy and begins to die, it swells up to become a red giant star. This causes its surface gravity to decrease, thereby allowing some of its mass to escape into space.
A binary star is a pair of stars that orbit each other because of their gravitational attraction to each other. When one member of the binary pair uses up all of its energy and begins to die, it loses mass due to the reduction in surface gravity. But instead of escaping into space, this mass is attracted to the companion star because of its gravitational pull. That increases the mass of the companion star. In a process that takes thousands of years, enough matter is transfered that causes the temperature and pressure to increase sufficiently to result in nuclear fusion reactions on the companion star. When these nuclear reactions become extremely violent, the released nuclear energy increases the brightness of this companion star dramatically, thereby creating a nova.
Therefore, it is the dying of one of the stars in a binary system along with a sufficient transfer of star mass to sustain nuclear reactions that results in a nova.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given
1 ) 140 m west in 45 s .
2 ) 90 m east in 25 s .
a )
distance travelled in first 45 s = 140 m
b ) distance travelled in next 25 s = 90 m
c ) Total distance travelled = 140 m + 90 m
= 230 m
d ) average speed in first 45 s
= distance in 45 s 45
= 140 / 45 = 3.11 m /s
e ) average speed in next 25 s
distance in 25 s / 25
= 90 / 25 = 3.6 m /s
f ) average in entire trip
= total distance / total time
= (140 + 90) / ( 25 + 45 )
= 3.28 m /s
g )
displacement in first 45 s = 140 m towards west
h )
displacement in next 25 s = 90 m towards east
i )
total displacement = 140 - 90
= 50 m towards west .
