Students have asked these similar questions
Part 1
Copy and answer the ff. questions in continuation of your activity 4 on your booklet 3.
1. Why is Big Bang the most reliable theory on the formation of the universe? Give its evidences and explain them briefly on how you understood them.
2. What is fundamental or elementary particles? Where did they come from?
3. Why did atoms not yet formed during the early times in the big bang timeline? How did the subatomic particles formed? What composed them?
3. Are you convince that their are much basic part than the subatomic particles? Defend your answers.
4. What are stars? What make them up? Why is that the smaller stars live longer than the massive and giant stars?
5. What is nuclear fusion? Where it happens? What is its role in the life of stars? What it does with gravity?
6. If giants stars already expended its fuel and were all converted to Iron, SUPERNOVA happens, how this event occured?
7. What is nucleosynthesis?
What are the 3 types of nucleosynthesis and what are the…
The law of conservation of energy states that energy can be converted from one form to another but cannot be created or destroyed. Therefore, the amount of energy in the universe is constant.
In your initial post to the discussion, respond to the following prompts:
What do you think would happen if energy were not conserved?
Think of (and share) two scenarios in which our lives would be drastically altered if this law of conservation was not in place. At least one of your scenarios should be at the molecular level.
Would the implications be positive? Negative? Explain.
Activity. Answer & sketch
Give a brief yet concise answer to these two questions below and draw appropriate icons or images which will remind you of the concept.
1. How did Hertz discover radio pulses?
2. How does the theory of special relativity support the conflicting notions of Newton and Maxwell?

Please help me to provide just few summary.arrow_forwardPlease provide steps for how you got the solution to the problem provided below, I am trying to understand the problem, not just see an answer. Thank you so much. A space ship warp engine has enough energy to perform two warp jumps going between star systems (i.e., the warp battery has 2 units of charge). The ship can operate in two modes: survey the current system or charge battery. On a given day the ship will complete the survey of the current system with probability 0.24. Then, if battery has capacity, it will move to a new system, consuming 1 unit of charge. If the battery is empty, the ship will switch to the charging mode. In the charging mode, the ship will recover 1 unit of charge on a given day with probability 0.95. The ship will stay in the charging mode until the battery is full. Model the behavior of the ship as a Markov chain.arrow_forward
- Please answer the question and its subquestions entirely! This is one question with two subquestions. According to the official Bartleby guidelines, I am alowed to have up to two subquestion! 1) When an ice-skater spins and increases her rotation rate by pulling her arms and leg in, what happens to her kinetic energy? It stays the same. It increases. It decreases. a) A 0.400 kg mass, sitting on a horizontal frictionless surface, is attached to the end of a 0.750 m string. It is whirled around in a circular horizontal path. If the maximum tension that the string can withstand is 450 N, then what maximum velocity can the mass have if the string is not to break? 375 m/s 22.4 m/s 19.4 m/s 29.0 m/s b) A grinding wheel with a moment of inertia of 2 kg-m 2 has a 2.50 N-m torque applied to it.
