How changes in solar position influence the intensity of radiation on a horizontal surface?

Changes in solar position influence the intensity of radiation on a horizontal surface because Energy concentration is greatly affected by changes in solar position. Energy intensity is greater when solar position is high. This concentrates more energy per unit area.

What determines the intensity of solar radiation?

The angle of the sun determines solar irradiance. The greater the angle, the lower the solar intensity. The lower the angle of the sun, the larger amount of ozone the light has to pass through.

What affects the intensity of solar energy?

The main parameters affecting the intensity of solar radiation are the zenith angle zeta of the sun, the water vapor content w of the atmosphere, and Schupp's turbidity coefficient B.

Liz puts a 1 kg weight and a 10 kg on identical sleds. She then applies a 10N force to each sled. Describe why the smaller weigh
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

the correct answer is D- Acceleration depends indirectly on the mass.

According to Newton's second law, the force F, the mass m and the acceleration a are related as follows:

F=ma

Therefore,

a=\frac{F}{m}

The acceleration <em>a₁ </em>of the mass<em> m₁ =1 kg</em>  is given by,

a_1=\frac{F}{m_1} \\ =\frac{10N}{1kg} \\ =10m/s^2

The acceleration <em>a₂ </em>of the mass <em>m₂=10 kg</em> is given by,

a_2=\frac{10N}{10kg} \\ =1m/s^2

The smaller mass has greater acceleration.

Thus, when the force applied on two bodies of different masses remains constant, then,

a\alpha  \frac{1}{m}

Acceleration is inversely proportional to the mass of the body.

aliya0001 [1]

<h2>The option ( b ) is appropriate answer </h2>

Explanation:

When a projectile is projected from height horizontally . The only force acting upon it is the downwards gravitational force of attraction due to earth .

Due to this force its vertical component of velocity , which is in the downward direction will be increased .

As there is no force horizontally , the horizontal  velocity of throw will remain constant .

Thus ( b ) option is the correct option .
