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

Physics
1 answer:
Alex_Xolod [135]2 years ago
8 0

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.

A 0.350kg bead slides on a curved fritionless wire,
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

h2 = 0.092m

Explanation:

From a balance of energy from point A to point B, we get speed before the collision:

m1*g*h-\frac{m1*V_B^2}{2}=0  Solving for Vb:

V_B=\sqrt{2gh}=6.56658m/s

Since the collision is elastic, we now that velocity of bead 1 after the collision is given by:

V_{B'}=V_B*\frac{m1-m2}{m1+m2} = \sqrt{2gh}* \frac{m1-m2}{m1+m2}=-1.34316m/s

Now, by doing another balance of energy from the instant after the collision, to the point where bead 1 stops, we get the distance it rises:

m1*g*h2-\frac{m1*V_{B'}^2}{2}=0 Solving for h2:

h2 = 0.092m

As an object rolls downhill, some of the energy is
Charra [1.4K]
When the object is at the top of the hill it has the most potential energy. If it is sitting still, it has no kinetic energy. As the object begins to roll down the hill, it loses potential energy, but gains kinetic energy. The potential energy of the position of the object at the top of the hill is getting converted into kinetic energy. Hope this helped. :)
