Why wouldn't an accretion disk orbiting a giant star get as hot as an accretion disk orbiting a compact object?

An accretion disk is heated by friction and compression, both of which are greater for material falling into a compact object as the material is forced into a smaller space. The hottest accretion disks would be found around black holes.


What is used to store information on a diskette?

A diskette, also known as a floppy disk, stores information magnetically on a thin, circular piece of plastic coated with a magnetic material. Data is written and read using a disk drive that reads and writes information to the magnetic surface of the diskette.


What storage media has the fastest access time?

Solid-state drives (SSDs) have the fastest access time compared to other storage media such as hard disk drives (HDDs) and optical disks. This is due to the lack of moving parts in SSDs, allowing for quicker data retrieval.

Is a ruptured disk the same as a budging disk?

No. The disk between the vertebra is like a sandwich. It has a filling that we call a disk. If the disk is pushed out a little bit, it is called a budging disk. If it comes out most of the way or all the way, it is a ruptured disk. This is more serious as it can push on the nerves so much so that you will need surgery. The other can sometimes be treated by physical therapy but it can get worse and rupture.

Why does the solid disk have a greater moment of inertia than the solid sphere, and how can this difference be explained?

The solid disk has a greater moment of inertia than the solid sphere because the mass of the disk is distributed farther from the axis of rotation, resulting in a larger rotational inertia. This difference can be explained by the parallel axis theorem, which states that the moment of inertia of an object can be calculated by adding the moment of inertia of the object's center of mass and the product of the mass and the square of the distance between the center of mass and the axis of rotation.


Is a hard disk greater in size than a CD?

Yes, a hard disk is much greater than a CD.


What can hold the most information on a computer?

Usually a hard disk or solid state disk.


If a solid disk and wheel of the same mass should start and stop spinning at the same time why does the disk stop sooner?

More of the mass of the wheel is located farther from the center (axle) and so for a given mass and turning speed, the wheel has greater momentum.
