Stellar evolution

We may see thousands of stars in the dark sky. Our universe consists of billions of stars. Stars may appear tiny to us but they are huge balls of gasses. Sun is a star of average size. Some stars are even a thousand times larger than the sun. The stars do not exist forever they have a certain lifetime. The life span of the sun is about 10 billion years. The star undergoes various changes during its lifetime, this process is called stellar evolution. The structure of the sun-like star is shown below.

Red Shift

It is an astronomical phenomenon. In this phenomenon, increase in wavelength with corresponding decrease in photon energy and frequency of radiation of light. It is the displacement of spectrum of any kind of astronomical object to the longer wavelengths (red) side.

Since the initial potential energy and final kinetic energy are zero, our equation now becomes EP,f = EK,i. We can then substitute the formula for kinetic energy, EK = 1/2mv2, and the formula for gravitational potential energy, EP = mgh, mghf = 1/2mvi2. Now it's just a matter of doing the algebra, solving for the final height hf, and substituting values to find hf. Notice that the mass m divides out of both sides of the equation, so the value of the mass is not needed to find the final height. Calculate the maximum height of the ball in meters. hf = __________ m

Include the correct sign. This would be work external to the earth/moon system, not gravitational work. Think of it as the energy that would have to be added or removed from the system to allow the calculated change in gravitational potential energy.
