What is the order of magnitude of the distance of Sun to nearest star in meters?
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

Approximating the Milky Way as a disk and using the density in the solar neighborhood, there are about 100 billion stars in the Milky Way.

Explanation:

Since we are making an order of magnitude estimate, we will make a series of simplifying assumptions to get an answer that is roughly right.

Let's model the Milky Way galaxy as a disk.

The volume of a disk is:

V

=

π

⋅

r

2

⋅

h

Plugging in our numbers (and assuming that

π

≈

3

)

V

=

π

2

⋅

(

19

m

)

V

=

61

m

3

Is the approximate volume of the Milky Way.

Now, all we need to do is find how many stars per cubic meter (

ρ

) are in the Milky Way and we can find the total number of stars.

Let's look at the neighborhood around the Sun. We know that in a sphere with a radius of

4

×

10

16

m there is exactly one star (the Sun), after that you hit other stars. We can use that to estimate a rough density for the Milky Way.

ρ

=

Using the volume of a sphere

Going back to the density equation:

ρ

V

n

Plugging in the density of the solar neighborhood and the volume of the Milky Way:

stars (or 100 billion stars)

Is this reasonable? Other estimates say that there are are 100-400 billion stars in the Milky Way. This is exactly what we found.

Arthur conducts a controlled experiment several times. The results of each test show that his hypothesis is not supported. Which
sladkih [1.3K]

Hello. You did not inform the experiment that Arthur is conducting, which makes it impossible for your question to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

The hypothesis is an assumption that is made before the experiment is carried out. This hypothesis is formed with the observation of some phenomenon of nature where the researcher believes that two or more elements interact to form a result. In this case, the experiment is carried out to determine whether the assumption, that is, the hypothesis is false or true. In the event that an experiment determines that the hypothesis is false, two things may have occurred: (a) the experiment was set up, or analyzed incorrectly, (b) the elements tested have no relation to the observed phenomenon.

Which tuning forks will give rise to a beat frequency of 20 Hz when sounded together with a 240 Hz tuning fork?
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Use the concept of beat frequency to find the applicable final freqeuncy for 20Hz beat frequency.

Beat can be defined as 'the interference pattern between two sounds of slightly different frequencies0

The expression for beat frequency is given as

f_{beat} = |f_1-f_2|

Where,

f_2 = Final frequency

f_1 = Initial frequency

The beat frequency for us is 25Hz and the initial frequency is 240Hz, then

20= |f_2-240|

Being an absolute value, two values are possible, both in addition and subtraction:

f_2 = 240 \pm 20

The two possible values are

f_2 = 220Hz

f_2 = 260Hz

Whats the difference between identical and fraternal twins
IrinaK [193]
Twin type has less to do with what twins look like and more to do with how they formed.
Identical, or monozygotic, twins form when a single fertilized egg splits and develop as two babies in the uterus. Identical twins originate from the same combination of cells and have the same genetic origin. They are ALWAYS the same sex, two girls/two boys. They may look very similar and it may be difficult to tell them apart.
Fraternal, or dizygotic, twins are two individuals from the same pregnancy who from TWO SEPARATE eggs fertilized by TWO SEPARATE SPERM. The genetic similarity between fraternal twins is the same as any two siblings, about 50 percent. They can be boys, girls, or one of each.
