Answer:
When there are two or more electrical devices in a circuit with an energy source, there are a couple of basic ways by which we connect them. They can either be connected in series or parallel
The total mechanical energy of the ball is the sum of its potential energy U and its kinetic energy K, therefore:
so, the total mechanical energy of the basketball is 118 J.
Answer:
Wn = 9.14 x 10¹⁷ N
Explanation:
First we need to find our mass. For this purpose we use the following formula:
W = mg
m = W/g
where,
W = Weight = 675 N
g = Acceleration due to gravity on Surface of Earth = 9.8 m/s²
m = Mass = ?
Therefore,
m = (675 N)/(9.8 m/s²)
m = 68.88 kg
Now, we need to find the value of acceleration due to gravity on the surface of Neutron Star. For this purpose we use the following formula:
gn = (G)(Mn)/(Rn)²
where,
gn = acceleration due to gravity on surface of neutron star = ?
G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²
Mn = Mass of Neutron Star = Mass of Sun = 1.99 x 10³⁰ kg
Rn = Radius of neutron Star = 20 km/2 = 10 km = 10000 m
Therefore,
gn = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²)(1.99 x 10³⁰ kg)/(10000)
gn = 13.27 x 10¹⁵ m/s²
Now, my weight on neutron star will be:
Wn = m(gn)
Wn = (68.88)(13.27 x 10¹⁵ m/s²)
<u>Wn = 9.14 x 10¹⁷ N</u>
Explanation:
According to formula
g = GM/R^2
when mass is halved the value of g becomes half but when radius is halved the value of g increases 4 times.
As a result of both value of g becomes twice.
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.
