Answer:

the short version is density

Explanation:

so the outer part of the nebula is cold and dark 10-20k but at this temutre the gas clumps together heating it up more mass = more gravity = more heat and the gravity will pull more mass that will give the proto star the spherical shape we all know and love

Answer:

Gravitational attraction caused the volume of the nebula to decrease, which raised the particle motion and temperature at the center of the nebula to the necessary 14 million Kelvin.

Mary has a mass of 40 kg and sprints at 1 m/s. How much kinetic energy does she have?
Sav [38]

Answer:

20 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is given as half of the product of mass and the square of velocity of an object:

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

where m = mass = 40 kg

v = velocity = 1 m/s

Hence, Mary's kinetic energy is:

KE = \frac{1}{2} * 40 * 1^2

KE = 20 * 1 = 20 J

She has a kinetic energy of 20 J.

Wegener believed continents moved, but he did not know how. Identify what needed to happen before Wegener's idea about moving co
pochemuha

D. Advances in technology were needed to gather more evidence.

Explanation:

New technologies had to be developed to ascertain Wegener's claims.

The major flaw in Wegener's postulate was that the moving continents lacked a mechanism to drive them into motion.

His theory needed more scientific backing also.

  • A major leap was made when new technologies used during the second world war was deployed to investigate the ocean floor.
  • Sequences of magnetic anomalies were unraveled using equipment developed during the second world war
  • This gave further proof to the idea of continental drift and it expanded the theory into a more broader and inclusive theory of plate tectonics.

A skier is accelerating down a 30.0-degree hill at 3.80 m/s^2.
Bond [772]

Answer:

ax = -3.29[m/s²]

ay = -1.9[m/s²]

Explanation:

We must remember that acceleration is a vector and therefore has magnitude and direction.

In this case, it is accelerating downwards, therefore for a greater understanding we will make a diagram of said vector, this diagram is attached.

a_{x}=-3.8*cos(30) = -3.29 [m/s^{2}]\\ a_{y}=-3.8*sin(30) = -1.9 [m/s^{2}]
