Typical novae occur when (a) a red-giant star ejects a planetary nebula; (b) two neutron stars merge, forming a more massive neutron star; (c) an extremely massive star collapses, and also ejects its outer atmosphere; (d) matter accreted from a companion star unstably ignites on the surface of a white dwarf; or (e) a neutron star’s magnetic field becomes strong enough to produce two oppositely directed jets of rapidly moving particles.

answer would be letter choice (a),   a ball resting on a shelf. would be another example of potential energy   >   stored energy > not moving.

a ball spinning on a finger   >   kinetic energy > moving energy

a ball rolling on the ground   >   kinetic energy   > moving energy

a   ball flying through the air   > kinetic energy   >   moving energy

hope that                                         : )

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.

i think it's 35 meters
