Answer:

a) 7.2*10^55

b) 1.2*10^29 kg

c) 3.2*10^11 m/s

Explanation:

Given a diameter of 10 km, that's a radius of 5 km.

We first attempt to find its mass number

A = (r/1.2*10^-15)³

A = (5/1.5*10^-15)³

A = 7.2*10^55

This gotten mass number is then multiplied by the mass of each neutron in the star. With each neutron being, 1.7*10^-27

M = 7.5*10^55 * 1.7*10^-27

M = 1.2*10^29 kg

And finally, using the formula

g = GM/r², we can find its acceleration due to gravity.

g = (6.67*10^-11 * 1.2*10^29) / 5000²

g = 8*10^18 / 2.5*10^7

g = 3.2*10^11 m/s

Which action best demonstrates the transformation of mechanical energy to heat energy and light energy?
Vinvika [58]

Well, first off, mechanical energy is the sum of kinetic and potential energy in an object that is used to do work. In other words, it is energy in an object due to its motion or position, or both. Heat energy is the result of the movement of tiny particles called atoms, molecules or ions in solids, liquids and gases. Light energy is the only form of energy that we can actually see directly. It is formed through chemical, radiation, and mechanical means. Striking a match stick (mechanical energy) creates fire, which has a ton of heat energy, and produces light too, so the answer, is A. I hope i could help!

An ac generator consists of a coil with 40 turns of wire, each with an area of 0.06 m2 . The coil rotates in a uniform magnetic
mezya [45]

Answer:

d. 332 V

Explanation:

Given;

number of turns in the wire, N = 40 turns

area of the coil, A = 0.06 m²

magnitude of the magnetic field, B = 0.4 T

frequency of the wave, f = 55 Hz

The maximum emf induced in the coil is given by;

E = NBAω

Where;

ω is angular velocity = 2πf

E = NBA(2πf)

E = 40 x 0.4 x 0.06 x (2 x π x 55)

E = 332 V

Therefore, the maximum induced emf in the coil is 332 V.

The correct option is "D"

d. 332 V
