Why is iron significant to understanding how a supernova occurs?

Physics
1 answer:
Vilka [71]4 years ago
6 0
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Iron cannot release energy by fusion.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Supernovae are some of the most magnificent events in the cosmos. When a massive star dies, it can result in a spectacular explosion many times that of man's total nuclear arsenal.
  • When a star has used up all the lighter elements and has just iron left, it has no more nuclear "fuel". That causes the star to contract then explode very violently as a supernova.

How do ballerinas take advantage of conservation of momentum to turn?.
mars1129 [50]
The ballerinas takes advantage of the moment of interia by not stretching her hands out etc. and by doing so decreasing the moment of interia and therefore a smaller torque is produced to rotate at a faster rate.

Why a magnet sitting next to a wire does not induce a current in the wire
SSSSS [86.1K]
A magnet sitting next to a wire does not induce a current in the wire because <span> the magnet is very small and short compared to the coil radius. If you pretend it's two individual monopoles, they're only a few mm apart, so at several cm there's almost perfect cancellation of the fields.</span>

Calculate the acceleration of a bus full speed changes from 6 miles to 12 miles over a period of three seconds
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

0.90m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial speed  = 6miles/hr

Final speed  = 12miles/hr

Time taken = 3 seconds

Unknown:

Acceleration = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time. It is mathematically given as:

         Acceleration  = \frac{Final speed - Initial speed}{Time}

We need to convert miles/hr to meters/seconds

Initial speed = 6 x \frac{miles }{hour} x \frac{1hr}{3600s}  x \frac{1609.34m}{1mile}

                      = 2.68m/s

Final speed = 12 x \frac{1609.34}{3600}  = 5.37m/s

      Acceleration  = \frac{5.37  - 2.68}{3}   = 0.90m/s²

Difference between displacement and vector quantity
daser333 [38]

The only 'difference' is that they are different categories.

It's like asking "What's the difference between Susie and girl ?"

Or "What's the difference between Cadillac and car ?"

Displacement <em>IS</em> a vector quantity.
