<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.

E asteroid belt circles the sun between the orbits of mars and jupiter. one asteroid has a period of 6.0 earth years. part a wha
anzhelika [568]

To solve the problem, use Kepler's 3rd law : 

T² = 4π²r³ / GM 

Solved for r : 

r = [GMT² / 4π²]⅓ 

but first covert 6.00 years to seconds : 

6.00years = 6.00years(365days/year)(24.0hours/day)(6... 
= 1.89 x 10^8s 

The radius of the orbit then is : 

r = [(6.67 x 10^-11N∙m²/kg²)(1.99 x 10^30kg)(1.89 x 10^8s)² / 4π²]⅓ 
= 6.23 x 10^11m
