G (where g=9.8 m/s2). If an object’s mass is m=10. kg, what is its weight?

An object's weight is

           (its mass) x (the acceleration of gravity wherever the object is) .

The acceleration of gravity on or near the Earth's surface is about 9.8m/s².

So an object with 10kg of mass, as long as it's located on or near the
Earth's surface, weighs
                                       (10 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 98 kg-m/s² = <em>98 Newtons</em>.

                                                                      That's about 22.05 pounds.

If you take the object somewhere else, it's still 10 kg of mass, but
it weighs something different, depending on the gravity of the place
where you take it.

In a binary-star system that produces a nova, the white dwarf pulls matter from the companion star. The matter forms an accretio
Studentka2010 [4]

As a head-up, it is important to notice that a white dwarf only shines thanks to the stored energy and light, because a white dwarf doesn't have any hydrogen left to perform nuclear fusion.

Now the process:

First, the white dwarf accumulates all the extracted matter from its companion, onto its own surface. This extra matter increases the white dwarf's temperature and density.

After a while, the star reaches about 10 million K, so nuclear fusion can begin. The hydrogen that has been "stolen" from the other star and accumulated in the white dwarf's surface it's used for the fusion, dramatically increasing the star's brightness for a short time, causing what we know as a Nova.

As this fuel its quickly burnt out or blown into space, the star goes back to its natural white dwarf state. Since the white dwarf nor the companion star are destroyed in this process, it can happen countless of times during their lifespan.

No. It is D. Science is actually testable. That is the purpose of the scientific method: to TEST a theory. For something to be considered science, you must be able to observe, ask questions, develop questions, and test them. Thefore, it is a process. Lastly, yes. Science is a body of knowledge. It's a subject field that covers many things and numerous sub areas.

larisa [96]

Answer:

The ice melts mass is:

m_g=7.6x10^{-3} g

Explanation:

Kinetic Energy  

K_E = 1/2*m*v^2

K_E = 1/2*0.5kg*(3.2m/s)^2

K_E=2.56 kg*m^2/s^2

Heat gained by ice= mass(g) x 80 cal

( 1 cal = 4.184 *10^7er or g cm^2/ sec^2)

Assuming no loss in heat,  in the motion so both continue with temperature 0~C

To find so the mass (gm) of ice melted

m_g= 1/2 *(0.5*1000)*(3.2m/s)^2* 100*100 / (80*4.184*10^7)

m_g=7.6x10^{-3} g
