What is the process that changes smaller atoms into larger ones in a star

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Nuclear fusion

Explanation:

In fusion, many nuclei (the centers of atoms) combine together to make a larger one (which is a different element). ... A star's mass determines what other type of nucleosynthesis occurs in its core (or during explosive changes in its life cycle).

For elevator questions, does the weight of a person increase when the elevator is going up or if it's going down-

TiliK225 [7]

The weight of a person increase when the elevator is going up.

<h3>Weight of the person in the elevator</h3>

The weight of the person in the elevator is calculated as follows;

<h3>When the person is going up</h3>

F = ma + mg

F = m(a + g)

where;

a is acceleration of the person
g is acceleration due to gravity

<h3>When the person is going down</h3>

F = mg - ma

F = m(g - a)

Thus, the weight of a person increase when the elevator is going up.

This question involves the concepts of the law of conservation of energy and kinetic energy.

The girl's fastest speed is "3.7 m/s".

According to the law of conservation of energy, the girl will have the fastest speed at mean position, which will be calculated as follows:

Loss in Potential Energy = Gain in Kinetic Energy

$mg\Delta h=\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\v=\sqrt{2g\Delta h}$

where,

v = maximum speed = ?

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Δh = change in height = 1.3 m - 0.6 m = 0.7 m

Therefore,

$v=\sqrt{2(9.81\ m/s^2)(0.7\ m)}$

v = 3.7 m/s
