Why does the size of a white dwarf affect its visual luminosity?

Physics
1 answer:
djyliett [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

A typical white dwarf has a carbon and oxygen mass similar to the Sun, but is much smaller in size (similar to the Earth). It is much hotter (25,000 K), but because of its small size its luminosity is low. ... Some very nearby white dwarf stars can be observed directly through telescopes, though they are extremely faint.

Complete the sentences below correctly. Stunt Car A and Stunt Car B are identical cars with the same mass of 48.9 kg. They are b
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

Stunt Car A experiences a large force over a short period of time. Stunt Car B experiences a small force over a long period of time. Because of the force experienced by Stunt Car A, it will sustain more damage than Stunt Car B.

Explanation:

Both cars have the same mass and velocity, therefore they have the same momentum. During the collision, the total momentum of the car A and brick wall is conserved as well as the total momentum of the car B and the pile of leaves.

However, if we are to investigate the damage on each car, we should look at the cars not the whole system. So, the momentum difference between the cars gives us the impulse that the car felt.

\vec{J} = \Delta \vec{P}\\\vec{F}\Delta t = \vec{P}_2 - \vec{P}_1

Since the Car A will crash the wall quicker than the other car crashes through the pile of leaves,

\Delta t_1 < \Delta t_2

which gives us

F_1 > F_2

When this pendulum swings, at which point is its kinetic energy the<br> highest? *
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

The bottom/center of the pendulum

Explanation:

As it swings, the pendulum will have maximum potential energy at the top of its arc.

As it comes back towards the center that potential energy will convert into kinetic energy until it reaches the middle of its swing (when the pendulum is fully vertical) where all potential energy has been converted into kinetic energy.

This is when the kinetic energy is the highest

As it begins to move away from the center of its arc, that kinetic energy will convert into potential energy again, and the process repeats
