Scientists have recently discovered one the smallest stars on record. how long will this star lastcompared to a larger star formed at the same time? o a. the smaller star will last longer than the larger star because it has a smaller chance of getting hit by anasteroido b. the smaller star will last longer than the larger star because it burns less fuel. o c. the larger star will last longer than the smaller star because it uses fuel more efficiently. o d. the larger star will last longer than the smaller star because it attracts more nebulae

I am thinking that it's c

Explanation:

hope that helps

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Stars start their lives being dense clouds of gas and dust. After a star is formed, it begins to burn hydrogen and transform it into helium. Once the hydrogen is depleted, new stages of nuclear combustion begin, such as burning helium to obtain heavier elements. This stage is shorter in larger stars since the greater the mass of a star, the greater the temperature in its nucleus and the greater the rate of fusion of hydrogen into helium, with which the fuel is depleted more quickly.

Have a nice day!

answer: at 24 february, 2014 the population gets twice of its initial population.

explanation:

since we have given that

the population for alpha city, t years after january 1, 2004 is given as

first we find out the initial population, i.e. t=0,

so, our quadratic equation becomes,

according to question, we have said that if the population has twice its initial population, then it becomes

so, time taken to reach this above mentioned population is given by

now, we know that time can't be negative so, we take t=9.149 years.

hence, at 24 february, 2014 the population gets twice of its initial population.
