The relation between temperature and pressure is called the "equation of state of the gas". or "Hydrostatic equilibrium in ordinary star". Take for example a balloon, it will have a larger spherical shape, if the pressure inside exerted by the gas on a wall of a balloon balance the inward force exerted by the outside atmospheric pressure. In a dying star which is being compressed by gravity, the gas is being squeezed so the molecules is moving rapidly, resulting to a very high temperature, and this provide a balance that counteract or balances the compressive force of gravity. The very high temperature inside the star is needed to balance the force of gravity, and it is provide by "nuclear fusion energy" or else the star would collapse under the force of gravity. Depending on the size or mass of the star, it will either become, a "neutron star" or a "black hole".

Answer from: zahraa244

Hydro-static Equilibrium

Explanation:

A fluid in its stable rest state is said to have hydro-static equilibrium. A star is composed of gases mainly hydrogen and helium. It is huge in size and mass. It does not collapses under its own weight because of the pressure exerted outwards by the ongoing nuclear fusion reaction in its core which balances the gravitational force. Thus, a star maintains a state of hydro-static equilibrium.

report!

explanation:

physics means: "the branch of science concerned with the nature and properties of matter and energy. the subject matter of physics, distinguished from that of chemistry and biology, includes mechanics, heat, light and other radiation, sound, electricity, magnetism, and the structure of atoms."

Answer from: Quest

note: the given question is incomplete.

complete question is given below.

which is an example of kinetic energy?

a. the energy stored in ethanol

b. a hockey puck sliding across the ice

c. a compressed spring

d. a ball sitting at the top of a ramp

solution: the kinetic energy is the energy posses by the virtue of the motion of the object.

in the given options, a, c and d are the example of potential energy because it is the energy posses by the virtue of the rest of the object. but option b has the kinetic energy as the object is in motion.

hence, a hockey puck sliding across the ice is the apex example of kinetic energy.

so, the option (b) a hockey puck sliding across the ice is the correct option.

Aboat radioed a distress call to a coast guard station. at the time of the call, a vector a from the station to the boat had a magnitude of 45.0 km and was directed 15.0° east of north. a vector from the station to the point where the boat was later found is = 30.0 km, 15.0° north of east. what are the components of the vector from the point where the distress call was made to point where the boat was found? in other words, what are the components of vector c = b - a?
