Stellar-sized black holes form when a star explodes in a supernova, leaving behind enough material that collapses to a distance within the black hole’s schwarzschild radius. as the core of the star collapses, its gravity becomes so strong that nothing—not even light—can escape from it. sort the following stars according to whether they could or could not collapse into black holes. could collapse into a black hole: could not collapse into a black hole: - the sun (1 solar mass) - eta carinae (100 solar masses) - spica a (11 solar masses) - betelgeuse (18 solar masses) - xi persei (40 solar masses) - sirius a (2 solar masses)

Aparticle with mass 1.81×10−3 kg and a charge of 1.22×10−8 c has, at a given instant, a velocity v⃗ =(3.00×104m/s)j^. what are the magnitude and direction of the particle’s acceleration produced by a uniform magnetic field b⃗ =(1.63t)i^+(0.980t)j^?

In a wind tunnel the speed changes as the cross sectional area of the tunnel changes. if the speed in a 6' x 6' square test section is 100 mph, what was the speed upstream of the test section where the tunnel measured 20' x 20'? use conservation of mass and assume incompressible flow. conservation of mass requires that as the flow moves through a path or a duct the product of the density, velocity and cross sectional area must remain constant; i.e., that ova-constant. a model is being tested in a wind tunnel at a speed of 100 mph if the flow in the test section is at sea level standard conditions, what is the pressure at the model's stagnation point? (a) the tunnel speed is being measured by a pitot-static tube connected to a u- tube manometer. what is the reading on that manometer in inches of water? (b) at one point on the model a pressure of 2058 psf is measured. what is the local airspeed at that point?

Imagine you work as a consultant, and your daily job involves listening to the constructive criticism of others. as part of your job, you must listen to opposing viewpoints to make important decisions. in this activity, you are a consulting dam engineer. you must make a decision about four different dams; should they be repaired, taken down, or left alone? you will listen to contrasting opinions about what should be done with the dams before you make the final decision. as the consulting dam engineer, what do you decide to do with this dam? explain your reasoning. by making your decision, did you support the opinions of the mayor and/or the dam safety official? why or why not?
