Why are the events of spinning a spinner and rolling a number cube independent events?
Because the number cube is not sentient enough to know the result of the spinner and modify its own outcome accordingly. And conversely, the outcome of the spinner is not affected by the roll of the cube.
What is the probability of getting two heads in a row followed by three tails in a row?
If you toss a coin often enough, it is a certainty, so that the probability = 1. The probability of that outcome in the first five tosses of a coin is (1/2)5 = 1/32.
Can the probability of an outcome be zero?
Yes. But there are at times philosophical problems at stating that the probability of an outcome that either has never been observed is zero. As a supposition or assumption, we can say that a particular outcome is zero, but how do we prove it? For example, I might believe that it is physically impossible for a person to weigh more than 1,000 lbs as no human on earth weighs that much, but if just one person weighs more than a 1,000 lbs, I have to accept that this outcome has a finite probability. We can come to the conclusion of impossibility by our cumulative knowledge. For example, it is impossible for a person to run 200 mph. World athelete's running speeds are very close, far below 200 mph. I can't prove it rigorously, but it is a rational conclusion based on our knowledge. To most people, if something has a chance of success of one in a billion or one in a trillion, this is close enough to impossible. However, even with these low probabilities, the result is still not impossible. For example, most people would think that winning the lotto 10 times in a row would be impossible, but the probability is above zero, therefor possible.
What is the probability that the random variable has a value greater then 3.2?
It depends on the possible range of the random numbers. The question, as stated, does not have enough information to answer. Please restate the question.
What does you cannot make this determination mean?
It means you cannot decide that. In context, it could mean that you don't have the authority to make a certain decision, or it could mean that you don't have enough information. It could mean that you do not have the skills or resources to make the decision, or perhaps that you are biased in one way or another and cannot determine, in a disinterested fashion, what the outcome should be.
A contracting cloud of gas and dust with enough mass to form a star?
a protostar
When does a protostar become a star?
The basic idea is that the protostar contracts, under the influence of gravity, until it gets dense and hot enough to undergo nuclear fusion. You can find more details at the Wikipedia article "Protostar".
What is a contracting cloud of gas and dust with enough mass to form a star?
it's a protostar
What is the first step of stellar evolution?
The formation of a protostar from a nebula. As the protostar forms, it accretes more mass from the cloud and spins. As it gains more mass, it eventually becomes massive enough to ignite the core and become a star. The protostar is the first step in the evolution of any star.
How is a protostar created?
Sometimes. If the total mass is high enough, and if the cloud of dust and gas collapse to reach a high enough density and pressure, nuclear fusion can begin in the core and it will become a star. If the total mass is not high enough, it may collapse into a "brown dwarf".
What process causes a star to begging burning?
The protostar material contracts due to gravity; this heats it up, and increases the pressure. Eventually, the core gets hot enough to sustain nuclear fusion. For more details, read about protostars.
What is the difference between a brown dwarf and a protostar?
A protostar is a star the is developing as is on the way to starting nuclear fusion. A brown dwarf is a failed star, one that failed to gather enough mass to start fusion.
What is a developing star not yet hot enough to engage in nuclear fusion called?
A protostar. See related question.
What is the role of purchasing in material management?
The role of purchasing in material management is to make sure there is enough material so that production continues smoothly. Another role is to fund the materials at the lowest price possible.
What happens to a protostar to eventually form a main sequence star?
It must collect enough mass in order for gravity to be able to turn it into a sphere.
A possible way to classify organisms would be to separate them into unicellular and multicellular organisms?
Yes but quite incomplete, it does not cover enough material.
What will a high mass protostar turn into?
A protostar is the first building block of the main star. As it has not yet accumulated enough mass to join the main sequence, it will be smaller than the main star. The next stage will be a T Tauri star.
