Suppose an astronomer known for joking around told you she had found a type-o main-sequence star in our milky way galaxy that contained no elements heavier than helium. would you believe her? why?

After the near spacecraft passed mathilde, on several occasions rocket propellant was expelled to adjust the spacecraft's momentum in order to follow a path that would approach the asteroid eros, the final destination for the mission. after getting close to eros, further small adjustments made the momentum just right to give a circular orbit of radius 45 km (45 × 10^3 m) around the asteroid. so much propellant had been used that the final mass of the spacecraft while in circular orbit around eros was only 545 kg. the spacecraft took 1.04 days to make one complete circular orbit around eros. calculate what the mass of eros must be.

Does heating a metal wire increase or decrease its electrical resistance? why?

Scientist have use computer models to create a series of maps that show how susceptible coastal cities in island countries are to the sea rising at different levels. the map shows that a 1 meter rise would swap cities all along the us eastern seaboard. a 6-meter sea level rise with sub merge a large part of florida. thermal expansion has already raise the oceans 10 to 20 centimeters the most likely cause, directly and indirectly, for such a rise in sea level is
