Why is iron significant to understanding how a supernova occurs?

Physics

Vilka [71]3 years ago

<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.

The atmosphere of Jupiter is essentially made up of hydrogen, H2. For H2, the specific gas constant is 4157 J/(kg K). The accele
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

h=17357.9m

Explanation:

The atmospheric pressure is just related to the weight of an arbitrary column of gas in the atmosphere above a given area. So, if you are higher in the atmosphere less gass will be over you, which means you are bearing less gas and the pressure is less.

To calculate this, you need to use the barometric formula:

P=P_0e^{-\frac{Mg}{RT}h}

Where R is the gas constant, M the molar mass of the gas, g the acceleration of gravity, T the temperature and h the height.

Furthermore, the specific gas constant is defined by:

R_{H_2}=\frac{R}{M}

Therefore yo can write the barometric formula as:

P=P_0e^{-\frac{g}{R_{H_2}T}h}

at the surface of the planet (h =0) the pressure is P_0[\tex]. The pressure at the height requested is half of that:[tex]P=\frac{P_0}{2}

applying to the previuos equation:

\frac{P_0}{2} =P_0e^{-\frac{g}{R_{H_2}T}h}

solving for h:

h=17357.9m

Prove dimensionally that: PV=RT
Oduvanchick [21]

Ideal Gas Law PV = nRT

THE GASEOUS STATE
Pressure  atm
Volume  liters
n  moles
R  L atm mol^-1 K^-1
Temperature  Kelvin


pv = rt

divide both sides by v
pv/v = rt/v

p = rt/v

answer: p = rt/v




Ideal Gas Law: Density

PV = NRT
PV = mass/(mw)RT

mass/V = P (MW)/RT = density



Molar Mass:
Ideal Gas Law PV = NRT
PV = mass/(MW) RT
MW = mass * RT/PV


Measures of Gases:
Daltons Law of Partial Pressures; is the total pressure of a mixture of gases equals the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases.

Total = P_ A + P_ B

P_ A V = n_ A RT

P_ B V = n_ B R T



Partial Pressures in Gas Mixtures:
P_ total = P_ A + P_ B
P_ A = n_ A RT/V P_ B = n_ B RTV

P_ total = P_ A + P_ B = n_ total RT/V




For Ideal Gasses:


P_ A = n_ A RT/V P_ total = n_ toatal RT/V



P_ A/P_ total = n_ A RTV/n_ total RTV


= n_ A/n_ total = X_ A





Therefore, P_ A = X_ A P_ total.



PV = nRT


P pressure

V volume


n Number of moles


R Gas Constant


T temperture (Kelvin.).

Suppose we placed a positive charge Q on the Moon and an equal positive charge Q on the Earth. What value of Q would be needed t
Rudiy27

Answer: q=5.70 x 10^13 C

Explanation:

gravitational attraction = electrostatic repulsion GMm/d^2 = kQ^2/d^2 as you can see the d^2 cancel out. that is why lunar distance is irrelevant. G is the universal gravitational constant = 6.67 x 10^-11 m^3 / kgs^2 M is earth's mass = 5.972 × 10^24 kg m is moon's mass = 7.342×10^22 kg Q is charge on earth and moon. k is coulomb's constant = 9 x10^9 N m^2 /C^2 On solving equation for Q. Q = sqrt (GMm/k) = sqrt ( 6.67 x 10^-11 x 5.972 x 10^24 * 7.342×10^22 / 9 x10^9) = 5.70 x 10^13 C
