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.

the base of a rectangular vessel measure 10m by 18cm. water is poured into a depth of 4cm. (a) what is the pressure on the base?
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

a) P =392.4[Pa]; b) F = 706.32[N]

Explanation:

With the input data of the problem we can calculate the area of the tank base

L = length = 10[m]

W = width = 18[cm] = 0.18[m]

A = W * L = 0.18*10

A = 1.8[m^2]

a)

Pressure can be calculated by knowing the density of the water and the height of the water column within the tank which is equal to h:

P = density * g *h

where:

density = 1000[kg/m^3]

g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]

h = heigth = 4[cm] = 0.04[m]

P = 1000*9.81*0.04

P = 392.4[Pa]

The force can be easily calculated knowing the relationship between pressure and force:

P = F/A

F = P*A

F = 392.4*1.8

F = 706.32[N]

Which of the following is true about green light? a) It has a greater frequency than red light and blue light. b) It has a small
lesantik [10]

Answer:

c) It has a greater frequency than red light but a smaller frequency than blue light.

Explanation:

According to the relation:

c = frequency × Wavelength

The higher the frequency, the lower the value of wavelength

The order of wavelength is:

Violet < Indigo < Blue < Green < Yellow < Orange < Red

Stated above, frequency is inversely proportional to the wavelength. Thus, the order of wavelength is:

Violet > Indigo > Blue > Green > Yellow > Orange > Red

Thus,

<u>Green light has lower frequency than blue light and higher than red light.</u>

A sphere of mass of 1.55 kg is accelerated upwards by a string to which the sphere is attached. Its speed increases from 2.81 m/
Mama L [17]

Answer:

The tension in the string is 16.24 N

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the sphere, m = 1.55 kg

initial velocity of the sphere, u = 2.81 m/s

final velocity of the sphere, v = 4.60 m/s

duration of change in the velocity, Δt = 2.64 s

The tension of the string is calculated as follows;

T =  ma  + mg\\\\T = m(a + g)\\\\where;\\\\a \ is \ upward \ acceleration \ of \ the \ sphere\\\\g \ is \ acceleration \ due \ to \ gravity =9.8 \ m/s^2\\\\a = \frac{\Delta V}{\Delta t} = \frac{v- u}{ t} = \frac{4.6 - 2.81 }{2.64} = 0.678 \ m/s^2

T = 1.55(0.678 + 9.8)

T = 1.55(10.478)

T = 16.24 N

Therefore, the tension in the string is 16.24 N

If you find two stars with the same Right Ascension, are they necessarily close together in the sky? Why or why not?
shepuryov [24]

In space, spatial coordinates can be roughly divided into measures of Right ascension and declination. The declination is measured in degrees while the ascent is measured in hours, minutes, seconds. When you have objects in space such as those of the characteristics presented we will have to they are not necessarily close together in the sky because we can find two stars on the same right ascension but on different declination lines (Which means they can be very far apart from each other)
