Answer:

a. a black hole

Explanation:

X-ray emission from the central degrees of the Milky Way Bright X-ray emission traces the coherent edge brightened shell-like feature, dubbed the northern chimney, located north of Sgr A* and characterized by a diameter of about 160 pc. On the opposite side, the southern chimney appears as a bright linear feature. Bright X-ray emission is observed at high latitude

Elden [556K]
<h2>Diagonal of circle </h2>

Explanation:

As the skateboarder wants to cross the play ground . The surface is rough .

As we know , the force of friction is non-conservative force . Thus work is required against this force .

We have formula:

work done = Force x distance (in one direction )

Te force applied cannot be changed , so he is to decrease the distance .

In case of circle , diameter is the minimum distance . Thus he is supposed to move along it .

Which of the following has potential but not kinetic energy?
gavmur [86]

The answer would be option D "a ball sitting on a shelf." Potential energy is the amount of energy a object has while it's at rest.. (or not moving) Kinetic energy is how much energy a object is while it's moving. So in this case it's option D because a ball sitting on a shelf isn't moving therefore it has potential energy. It's not option A because thats a example of kinetic energy since how the roller coaster is moving. It's not option B because it's kinetic energy because the bike is moving. It's also not option C because it's kinetic energy because the bird is moving.


Hope this helps!

What can always be said about a negatively-charged ion?
KiRa [710]

Answer: A negatively-charged ion always has more electrons than protons

Explanation:

First, we know that the elementary negative charge is the electron, while the positive one is the proton. Such that both have the same charge in magnitude, but a different sign. Such that if we have the same number of electrons and protons in an atom, the charge of this atom will be neutral.

And an ion is an atom with a different number of electrons and protons, so the charge of the atom is not neutral.

Then if we have a negatively-charged ion, the charge of this atom is negative. Then we must have a larger number of electrons (the negative ones) than protons (the positive ones)

Then the correct option is:

A negatively-charged ion always has more electrons than protons
