Neutron stars, such as the ones at the center of the crab nebula, have about the same mass as our sun but a much smaller diameter. if you weigh 785 n on earth, what would you weigh when at the surface of a neutron star that has the same mass as out sun and a diameter of 15 km?

Amachinist needs to remove a tight fitting pin of material a from a hole in a block made of material b. the machinist heats both the pin and the block to the same high temperature and removes the pin easily. what statement relates the coefficient of thermal expansion of material a to that of material b? a) the situation is not possible, heating block b will shrink the hole in the material as the material expands with increasing temperatureb) material b has the same coefficient of expansion as does material ac) material b has a negative coefficient of expansion and a has a positive coefficient of expansiond) material a has a greater coefficient of expansion than does material be) material b has a greate

In a vernier instrument the main scale is in 1/2 mm divisions .vernier is made by redividing 19 such divisions into 20 equal parts. calculate the least count of the instrument.

There is a theory that indicates that dinosaurs became extinct when about 65 million years ago, a large asteroid hit the earth surface. dust caused by this collision blocked the sunlight reaching the earth's surface and many forms of life became extinct due to the cold. fearing this threat, how large the radius of an asteroid should you be looking for if the dangerous asteroid size is approximately the same as the one that killed the dinosaurs? available data suggests that about 18% of that asteroid's mass ended up as a dust spread evenly over earth after eventually settling out of the upper atmosphere. about 0.0180 g/cm^2 of dust, which is chemically different than the earth's rock, covered the earth's surface. typical asteroids have a density of about 1.9 g/cm^3. now that we know the size of the asteroid, how much energy was released during impact, assuming all of it was just the kinetic energy of the asteroid right before the impact?
