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.

Density Here is a simple problem. Then we'll do one that requires a little more thought. The shape of a city is roughly a circle with a radius of 5 miles. If the population density for the city is 10,000 people per square mile, what is the population of the city? 11111 Now here's a problem that will stretch your problem solving skills. This time the city is also in the shape of a circle, but the population density is higher towards the center of the city and lower towards the outskirts. The numbers in the diagram represent miles. The population density is 10,000 people per square mile in the inner circle. In the first ring out from the center the density is 8,000 people per square mile, the second ring out it's 6,000, in the third ring out it's 4,000 and in the largest ring it's only 2,000 people per square mile. Finally, here is a three dimensional problem. Density is defined as weight per unit of volume. So which weighs more, a ball of zinc with a radius of 3 cm, or a ball of…
Paperweight I bought a pack of 100 rectangular index cards. Each card measured 15 by 10 cm. The pack said ：Paper Density = 200 GSM (grams per square meter). This means that a square meter of those cards weighs 200 g. A) All of the cards in the pack are place flat on a table without overlap. In square meters, what is the total area of the table covered by the cards? B) Each pack of cards is wrapped in a sheet of 50 GSM paper with an area of 800cm squared. I have a number of packs and wish to store them on a shelf that cannot hold more than 10 kg. What is the largest whole number of wrapped packs that can be stored? C) The total weight of 500 identical sheets of paper is 2.4kg. If each sheet measures 30cm by 20cm, what is its paper density in GSM? D) A business card measures 55mm by 90mm. Its paper density is 300 GSM. Fins its exact weight in grams.
The initial mass of a certain species of fish is 2 million tons. The mass of fish, if left alone, would increase at a rate proportional to the mass, with a proportionality constant of 5/yr. However, commercial fishing removes fish mass at a constant rate of 12 million tons per year. When will all the fish be gone? If the fishing rate is changed so that the mass of fish remains constant, what should that rate be? When will all the fish be gone? Inco The fish will all be gone in years. (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
