At a camp site there are tents of 2 shades. 1 made with black fabric and the other with white fabric. Which one will you prefer

for resting on a hot summer afternoon. Give reason for your choice

Answer:

Explanation:

On a hot summer afternoon the tent made up of white fabric will be preferred because white colour is a bad absorber and good reflector of heat. Hence, it will be more convenient to stay under fabric tent made of white during this season because heat will be reflected which makes shade provided by such tent to be cool and enjoyable.

While the black fabric tent will be preferred during winter because black materials are good absorber of heat and are poor reflector.

A charge Q is uniformly spread over one surface of a very large nonconducting square elastic sheet having sides of length d. At
yaroslaw [1]

The electric field of a very large (essentially infinitely large) plane of charge is given by:

E = σ/(2ε₀)

E is the electric field, σ is the surface charge density, and ε₀ is the electric constant.

To determine σ:

σ = Q/A

Where Q is the total charge of the sheet and A is the sheet's area. The sheet is a square with a side length d, so A = d²:

σ = Q/d²

Make this substitution in the equation for E:

E = Q/(2ε₀d²)

We see that E is inversely proportional to the square of d:

E ∝ 1/d²

The electric field at P has some magnitude E. Now we double the side length of the sheet while keeping the same amount of charge Q distributed over the sheet. By the relationship of E with d, the electric field at P must now have a quarter of its original magnitude:

E_{new} = E/4

Nuclear decay occurs according to first-order kinetics. How long will it take for a sample of radon-218 to decay from 99 grams t
dedylja [7]

It will take 267 milliseconds for a sample of radon-218 to decay from 99 grams to 0. 50 grams.

We know that half life of a first order reaction is given by: t_{1/2} = 0.693/k

where k = rate of reaction

Given half life = 35 milliseconds

So from this we get k = 0.0198

Now we know that rate of first order reaction is given by: kt= 2.303 * log(R'/R)

where t= time

R'= initial amount = 99 g

R= final amount= 0.50 g

k= rate of reaction = 0.0198

Putting values of these in above equation we get t=267 milliseconds.

i.e. It will take 267 milliseconds for a sample of radon-218 to decay from 99 grams to 0. 50 grams.
