Why do stars twinkle​

Physics
1 answer:
vlada-n [284]2 years ago
4 0

As light from a star races through our atmosphere, it bounces and bumps through the different layers, bending the light before you see it. Since the hot and cold layers of air keep moving, the bending of the light changes too, which causes the star's appearance to wobble or twinkle.

What are examples of a solution in solids, liquids, and gases
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Solid: metal alloy

Liquid: beer

Gas: Air

Explanation:

A solution is a type of mixture where the solvent and solute are homogeneously mixed. Homogeneous mixture means that the solute shouldn't be able to be seen with the naked eye, filtered and stable enough.  

Metal alloy will be an example of a solution in solid-state. Beer is a solution made of liquid alcohol and liquid water. Air mostly composed of nitrogen, but it has oxygen, carbon dioxide, and many other substances in gaseous form.

Cells that remain as sources of other cells are called
inna [77]
They are called stem cells. This cells are undifferentiated which means it can specialize in other types when it receives the right stimuli. They can divide through mitoses and become more stem cell or become a bone, muscle, blood cell, etc.

They can have 2 origins: embryos or some human tissue; their function is to regenerate or substitute damaged cells

A ball is thrown straight up with a speed of 30 m/s, and air resistance is negligible. How long does it take the ball to reach t
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

3 seconds

Explanation:

Applying,

Applying,

v = u±gt................ Equation 1

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time, g = acceleration due to gravity.

From the question,

Given: v = 0 m/s ( at the maximum height), u = 30 m/s

Constant: g = -10 m/s

Substitute these values into equation 1

0 = 30-10t

10t = 30

t = 30/10

t = 3 seconds

The density of lead is 11.3 g/cm3. what mass of lead is required to make a 1.00 cm3 fishing sinker?
Elza [17]

The mass of lead required to make a 1.00 cm3 fishing sinker is 11.3g.

What is mass?

Mass is a metric used in physics to express inertia, a fundamental characteristic of all matter. A mass of matter's resistance to altering its direction or speed in response to the application of a force is what it essentially is. The change that an applied force produces is smaller the more mass a body has.

Given :

Density of lead = 11.3 g/cm3

Volume of  sinker  =  1.00 cm3

One of a substance's attributes is density, which is calculated by dividing the mass by the volume. Mathematically:

Density : Mass / volume

therefore after putting the values,

mass= 11.3g

If an object is thrown in an upward direction from the top of a building 1.6 x 10^2 ft. high at an initial velocity of 21.82 mi/
Goshia [24]

If an object is thrown in an upward direction from the top of a building 1.60 x 102 ft. high at an initial velocity of 21.82 mi/h, what is its final velocity when it hits the ground? (Disregard wind resistance. Round answer to nearest whole number and do not reflect negative direction in your answer.)


this question is troubling me i guessed 96 ft/s

can someone help me out and explain it thanks so much!!!!!!
