The average intensity received on the Earth's surface is 12.6*10^{10} W/m^{2}

​Intensity = Rate  of  energy radiated/4\pi R^{2}

where  R is the distance of the earth from the sun.

I=4*10^{26}/4\pi *[150*106*10^{3}]^{2}

I=0.12597*10^{12}

I=12.6*10^{10} W/m^{2}

What is the meaning of the intensity of sunlight?

Sun intensity refers to the amount of incoming solar energy, or radiation, that reaches the Earth's surface. The angle at which the rays from the sun hit the Earth determines this intensity.

What is the average intensity received on the Earth's surface?

The average intensity received on the Earth's surface is given by:

I=rate of energy radiated/4\pi R^{2}

Thus, the average intensity received on the Earth's surface is 12.6*10^{10} W/m^{2}

One kg of air contained in a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes a process from an initial state whereT1=300K,v1=0.8m3/kg, to a f
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

1. Yes, it can occur adiabatically.

2. The work required is: 86.4kJ

Explanation:

1. The internal energy of a gas is just function of its temperature, and the temperature changes between the states, so, the internal energy must change, but how could it be possible without heat transfer? This process may occur adiabatically due to the energy balance:

U_{2}-U_{1}=W

This balance tell us that the internal energy changes may occur due to work that, in this case, si done over the system.

2. An internal energy change of a gas may be calculated as:

du=C_{v}dT

Assuming C_{v} constant,

U_{2}-U_{1}=W=m*C_{v}(T_{2}-T_{1})

W=0.72*1*(420-300)=86.4kJ

Calculate the angular momentum of a solid uniform sphere with a radius of 0.150 m and a mass of 13.0 kg if it is rotating at 5.7
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

The angular momentum of the solid sphere is 0.667 kgm²/s

Explanation:

Given;

radius of the solid sphere, r = 0.15 m

mass of the sphere, m = 13 kg

angular speed of the sphere, ω = 5.70 rad/s

The angular momentum of the solid sphere is given;

L = Iω

Where;

I is the moment of inertia of the solid sphere

ω is the angular speed of the solid sphere

The moment of inertia of solid sphere is given by;

I = ²/₅mr²

I = ²/₅ x (13 x 0.15²)

I = 0.117 kg.m²

The angular momentum of the solid sphere is calculated as;

L = Iω

L = 0.117 x 5.7

L = 0.667 kgm²/s

Therefore, the angular momentum of the solid sphere is 0.667 kgm²/s

Find a numerical value for ρearth, the average density of the earth in kilograms per cubic meter. use 6378km for the radius of t
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

5501 kg/m^3

Explanation:

The value of g at the Earth's surface is

g=\frac{GM}{R^2}=9.70 m/s^2

where G is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

R=6378km = 6.378 \cdot 10^6 m is the Earth's radius

Solving the formula for M, we find the value of the Earth's mass:

M=\frac{gR^2}{G}=\frac{(9.81 m/s^2)(6.378\cdot 10^6 m)^2}{6.67\cdot 10^{-11}}=5.98\cdot 10^{24}kg

The Earth's volume is (approximating the Earth to a perfect sphere)

V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 = \frac{4}{3}\pi (6.378\cdot 10^6 m)^3=1.087\cdot 10^{21} m^3

So, the average density of the Earth is

\rho = \frac{M}{V}=\frac{5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg}{1.087\cdot 10^{21} m^3}=5501 kg/m^3

If a wave’s frequency is 16Hz and it’s wavelength is 10m. What’s the waves speed?
Vesna [10]

Answer:

160J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Frequency  = 16Hz

Wavelength = 10m

Unknown:

Waves speed  = ?

Solution:

Waves speed is the product of frequency and wavelength;

  Waves speed  = fλ

f is the frequency

λ is the wavelength

Now insert the parameters and solve;

     Waves speed = 16 x 10  = 160J

As part of previous adventures, formerly conjoined identical twin, Sue, is now 13.4 years younger than her identical twin Lou. (
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

Difference in Twin's Ages = 12.68 years

Explanation:

Using special theory of relativity's time dilation phenomenon, we first find the time that is passed on earth during Lou's trip.

t = t₀/[√(1 - v²/c²)]

where,

t = time measured by the person in relative motion = 1 year

t₀ = time measured by the person at rest = ?

v = speed of relative motion = 0.96 c

c = speed of light  

Therefore,

1 year = t₀/[√(1 - 0.96² c²/c²)]

1 year = t₀/[√(1 - 0.9216)]

(1 year)(0.28 year) = t₀

t₀ = 0.28 year

Let,

y = Sue's age

x = Lou's age

so,

x - y = 13.4 years

but, after this trip Lou has aged 1 year, and on earth only 0.28 years passed so, Sue has aged only 0.28 years. Therefore,

x = x + 1

y = y + 0.28

Therefore,

(x + 1 year) - (y + 0.28 year) = 13.4 years

x - y = 13.4 years - 0.72 year

x - y = 12.68 years

<u>Difference in Twin's Ages = 12.68 years</u>
