Answer of Question:1

The core of the sun is so hot and there is so much pressure, nuclear fusion takes place: hydrogen is changed to helium. Nuclear fusion creates heat and photons (light). The sun's surface is about 6,000 Kelvin, which is 10,340 degrees Fahrenheit (5,726 degrees Celsius).

Answer of Question:2

in about 5 billion years, the sun will run out of hydrogen. Our star is currently in the most stable phase of its life cycle and has been since the birth of our solar system, about 4.5 billion years ago. Once all the hydrogen gets used up, the sun will grow out of this stable phase.

Answer of Question:3

Formation. The Sun and the rest of the solar system formed from a giant, rotating cloud of gas and dust called a solar nebula about 4.5 billion years ago. As the nebula collapsed because of its overwhelming gravity, it spun faster and flattened into a disk. ... Like all stars, the Sun will someday run out of energy.

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

13.37 rev/min

Explanation:

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s², centripetal acceleration ( $a_c$ ) = 1.8 * g = 1.8 * 9.8 m/s² = 17.64 m/s².

r = 9 m

Centripetal acceleration ( $a_c$ ) is given by:

$a_c=\frac{v^2}{r} \\\\v=\sqrt{a_c*r} \\\\v=\sqrt{17.64\ m/s^2*9\ m}\\\\v=12.6\ m/s$

The velocity (v) is given by:

v = ωr; where ω is the angular velocity

Hence:

ω = v/r = 12.6 / 9

ω = 1.4 rad/s

ω = 2πN

N = ω/2π = 1.4 / 2π

N = 0.2228 rev/s

N = 13.37 rev/min

A truck contains both hydraulic brakes (reliability 0.96) and mechanical brakes (reliability 0.99). What is the probability of s

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

i) 0.9504

ii) 0.0452

Explanation:

Given data: reliability of hydraulic brakes= 0.96

reliability of mechanical brakes = 0.99

So the probability of stopping the truck = 0.96×0.99= 0.9504

At low speed

case: A works and B does not

= 0.96×(1-0.99) = 0.0096

case2 : B works and A does not

= 0.99×(1-0.96) = 0.0396

Therefore, probality of stopping = 0.0096+0.0396 = 0.0492

Nadya [2.5K]

As per Newton's III law every action has equal and opposite reaction

So here we can say that

every body which apply force on other body must have a reaction force of same magnitude in opposite direction

So here if ball hits the ground by 50 N force then the ball must have a reaction force on itself with same magnitude and opposite direction

the magnitude of the force will be 50 N

and its direction is opposite to the force that ball apply on the floor

If each of the three rotor helicopter blades is 3.50 m long and has a mass of 120 kg , calculate the moment of inertia of the th

devlian [24]

Answer:

1470kgm²

Explanation:

The formula for expressing the moment of inertial is expressed as;

I = 1/3mr²

m is the mass of the body

r is the radius

Since there are three rotor blades, the moment of inertia will be;

I = 3(1/3mr²)

I = mr²

Given

m = 120kg

r = 3.50m

Required

Moment of inertia

Substitute the given values and get I

I = 120(3.50)²

I = 120(12.25)

I = 1470kgm²

Hence the moment of inertial of the three rotor blades about the axis of rotation is 1470kgm²
