In stars more massive than the sun, the core temperature is hotter, which allows for fusion of more complex elements.
Most of the fusion occurs in the core.
In stars more massive than the sun, fusion continues through Deuterium, Carbon, and finally reaching iron/nickel.
Up to this point, the fusion reaction was endothermic, which means that the energy expended to produce the fusion reaction was exceeded by the energy produced in the reaction.
Fusion past iron is exothermic, and therefore the star will be able to survive by fusing elements heavier than iron.
After the core is almost entirely iron, the star is no longer in the Main Sequence.
So, fusion in stars more massive than the sun continue fusing until the core is almost entirely <em>iron</em>.
Answer:
There are different ways to investigate density. In this required practical activity, it is important to:
record the mass accurately
measure and observe the mass and the volume of the different objects
use appropriate apparatus and methods to measure volume and mass and use that to investigate density
Explanation:
Answer
given,
gauge pressure = 1.94 x 10⁵ Pa
Pressure due to 4.90 m column of water
= ρ g h
= (4.90) x (1000) x (9.8) Pa
= 48020 Pa
Gauge pressure of second floor faucet
= 1.94 x 10⁵Pa - 48020 Pa
P_g= 145980 Pa
( b )
Let h = height of faucet from which no water can flow even if open
P = ρ g h
1.94 x 10⁵ = h x(1000) x (9.8)
h = 19.79 m
The inner core is solid because it is made of very dense, or heavy, materials like iron and nickel. Even though it is very hot, these materials don't
