Shocks from supernovae are the explosions of massive stars.

∙ 14y ago
Shocks from supernovae are abrupt changes in pressure and temperature caused by the explosion of a massive star. These shocks create powerful waves that propagate through the surrounding interstellar medium and can trigger the formation of new stars and influence the dynamics of gas and dust in galaxies. They also contribute to enriching the interstellar medium with heavy elements synthesized in the supernova explosion.

What role did supernovae play in the natural elements?
It is precisely the supernovae that created those elements and dispersed them into space.It is precisely the supernovae that created those elements and dispersed them into space.It is precisely the supernovae that created those elements and dispersed them into space.It is precisely the supernovae that created those elements and dispersed them into space.
What is the difference between Type I and Type II supernovae?
Type I supernovae occur in binary star systems and involve a white dwarf accreting mass from a companion star until it reaches a critical limit, leading to a sudden explosion. Type II supernovae occur when a massive star exhausts its nuclear fuel and collapses under its own gravity, triggering a powerful explosion. Type I supernovae lack hydrogen in their spectra, while Type II supernovae show hydrogen lines.
What heavier elements in the universe were formed by what?
They were formed in supernovae.
What are Type II supernovae produced by?
Supernovae are classified as Type I or Type II depending upon the shape of their radioactive decay of the unstable heavy elements produced in the explosion.
What role did supernova play in creating the natural elements?
Supernovae are massive explosions that occur when a star reaches the end of its life cycle. During a supernova, the intense heat and pressure generate the energy required to create and fuse heavier elements beyond iron, such as gold, silver, and uranium. These elements are then dispersed into space, eventually contributing to the formation of new stars, planets, and even life.
Is supernovae and supernova the same thing?
"Supernovae" is a plural form of "supernova"

What if a supernova was caused by the black hole at the center of the galaxy?
Black holes do not create supernovae. Black holes are created from a supernovae.
Difference between shocks and struts?
Shocks are just that, shocks. There is already a suspension system in place and you add shocks to it. The shocks can be replaced easily.Struts have part of the suspension andthe shocks included in one assembly. The struts have to be disassembled for access to the shocks.
Where are supernovae?
Supernovae are massive explosions that occur when a star uses up its gas and explodes so they will only occur once a star has died.
Black holes form from the remains of stars that?
"explode as supernovae". These are called Type II supernovae and sometimes a neutron star is formed, not a black hole.
Elements found on earth have much to do with?
