A Herbig-Haro (HH) object is:_:_________.

1 answer:

5 0

Given what we know about Herbig-Haro (HH) objects, we can confirm that they are born from the collision between a jet from a star and clouds of interstellar matter.

<h3>What are Herbig-Haro (HH) objects?</h3>

To put it simply, a Herbig-Haro (HH) object is what we observe as a bright spot in distant space. Upon closer observation we can observe that these giant bright patches are not lone objects, but in fact immense groups of interstellar matter.

<h3>How Herbig-Haro (HH) objects are formed.</h3>

The formation of one of these interstellar groups requires an immense amount of energy. This energy come from the speed at which the materials that form these objects collide.
As stated in the question, the jet released from a star in the process of being born smashes into a giant cloud of dust and interstellar material to form the Herbig-Haro (HH) objects.
This collision happens at hundreds of km/s. To put it into perspective, it would be roughly 500,000 miles per hour.

Therefore, we can confirm that option b, which states, "where a jet from a star in the process of being born collides with (and lights up) a nearby cloud of interstellar matter", is the correct choice for the question pertaining to Herbig-Haro (HH) objects.

Does the volume of particles affect the behavior of gas

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

Yes, it does, although only physically and not chemically.

Explanation:

If a volume of gas is way spread out, it won't collide with the other gas particles as often, reducing pressure and temperature because they lose kinetic energy to their surroundings when they don't collide.

If it is compressed, it increases temperature and pressure because the gas particles collide with each other and the walls of the container way more often than if they had more space.

Hope this answers your question.

P.S.

Fun fact, gas particles are actually moving at 300-400 meters per second at room temperature, they only slow down to walking speed at very low temperatures, like 10 Kelvin

A solid sample of a compound a liquid sample of the same compound are each tested for elecrical conductivity.Which test conclusi

nignag [31]

An ionic compound will not conduct electricity as a solid.
It will conduct electricity when melted.
Some ionic compounds are soluble. Their solutions in water also conduct electricity.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

A substance should contain charged particles that are free to move around in order to conduct electricity.

Ionic compounds contain an ocean of ions. They carry either positive or negative charges. Attractions between them hold them in a rigid lattice under the solid state. Those ions are unable to move. The ionic compound can't conduct electricity.

Melting the ionic compound will break the lattice. Those ions are now free to move to conduct electricity. Dissolving the compound in water will also free the ions. As a result, those solutions will also conduct electricity.

Conductivity under different states distinguishes between ionic compounds, molecular compounds, and metals.

Ionic compounds conduct electricity when melted but not as a solid.
Molecular compounds have no charged particles. They do not conduct electricity even when melted.
Valence electrons in metals are free to move both when the metal is a solid and when it is melted. Metals conduct electricity under both solid and liquid states.
