Answer:

A protostar is the earliest stage of a star's life. A star is born when the gas and dust from a nebula become so hot that nuclear fusion starts.

Afina-wow [57]

Explanation:

Understanding that stars are naturally quite hot, imagine I pulled a piece of hot iron from a furnace. It would glow a bright red, and then slowly fade to black as the iron cools.

White dwarfs glow for the same reason - they are HOT!

what is the magnitude of the electric force between charges of 0.25 C and 0.11 C at a separation of 0.88 m? if the separation be

leonid [27]

$F = k \cdot \frac{q_1 q_2}{d} = 9 \cdot 10^{9} \cdot \frac{0.25 \cdot 0.11}{0.88} = 144 \cdot 5^{9} \ N.$

If the separation between the charges is increased then the magnitude of the force will increase in fact how the distance is being used in that formula.

You are in Paris, 60 m up in the Eiffel Tower. If you throw a euro downward at a velocity of 2.0 m/s, how long would it take the

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

t = 3.29 seconds

Explanation:

It is given that,

Height of the Eiffel tower is 60 m

Initial speed of a euro, u = 2 m/s

It will move under the action of gravity in the downward direction. Firstly, we can find the final velocity as follows :

$v^2-u^2=2ad\\\\v=\sqrt{u^2+2ad} \\\\v=\sqrt{(2)^2+2\times 9.81\times 60} \\\\v=34.36\ m/s$

Let t is the time taken by the euro to hit the ground. It can be calculated as :

$v=u+at\\\\t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\\t=\dfrac{34.36-2}{9.81}\\\\t=3.29\ s$

Hence, it will take 3.29 seconds to hit the ground.

A parallel-plate capacitor with plates of area 600 cm^2 is charged to a potential difference V and is then disconnected from the

Julli [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) The charge Q on the positive charge capacitor can be gotten using the formula Q = CV

C = capacitance of the capacitor (in Farads )

V = voltage (in volts) = 100V

C = ∈A/d

∈ = permittivity of free space = 8.85 × 10^-12 F/m

A = cross sectional area = 600 cm²

d= distance between the plates = 0.7cm

C = 8.85 × 10^-12 * 600/0.7

C = 7.59*10^-9Farads

Q = 7.59*10^-9 * 100

Q = 7.59*10^-7Coulombs

Q = 0.759*10^-6C

Q = 0.759µC

b) Energy stored in a capacitor is expressed as E = 1/2CV²

E = 1/2 * 7.59*10^-9 * 100²

E = 0.0000395Joules

E = 39.5*10^-6Joules

E = 39.5µJ

Change of 5000 c flows through a circuit in one hour. what is the current intensity?

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

I = 1.38 A

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge, q = 5000 C

Time, t = 1 hour = 3600 s

We need to find the current intensity. The current intensity is equal to the electric charge per unit time. It can be given by :

$I=\dfrac{q}{t}$

Substitute all the values in the above formula

$I=\dfrac{5000\ C}{3600\ s}\\\\=1.38\ A$

So, the current intensity is 1.38 A.
