Answer:

Distance covered by Joe, d = 5 km

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of Joe, v = 20 km/hour

Time taken by Joe, t = 15 minutes = 0.25 h

We need to find the distance he is covering. It can be calculated using definition of speed as :

v=\dfrac{d}{t}

d=v\times t

d=20\times 0.25

d = 5 km

So, Joe covers a distance of 5 km. Hence, this is the required solution.

A body which has surface area 5cm² and temperature of 727°C radiates 300J of energy in one minute. Calculate it's emissivity giv
cestrela7 [59]
<h2>Answer: 0.17</h2>

Explanation:

The Stefan-Boltzmann law establishes that a black body (an ideal body that absorbs or emits all the radiation that incides on it) "emits thermal radiation with a total hemispheric emissive power proportional to the fourth power of its temperature":  

P=\sigma A T^{4} (1)  

Where:  

P=300J/min=5J/s=5W is the energy radiated by a blackbody radiator per second, per unit area (in Watts). Knowing 1W=\frac{1Joule}{second}=1\frac{J}{s}

\sigma=5.6703(10)^{-8}\frac{W}{m^{2} K^{4}} is the Stefan-Boltzmann's constant.  

A=5cm^{2}=0.0005m^{2} is the Surface area of the body  

T=727\°C=1000.15K is the effective temperature of the body (its surface absolute temperature) in Kelvin.

However, there is no ideal black body (ideal radiator) although the radiation of stars like our Sun is quite close.  So, in the case of this body, we will use the Stefan-Boltzmann law for real radiator bodies:

P=\sigma A \epsilon T^{4} (2)  

Where \epsilon is the body's emissivity

(the value we want to find)

Isolating \epsilon from (2):

\epsilon=\frac{P}{\sigma A T^{4}} (3)  

Solving:

\epsilon=\frac{5W}{(5.6703(10)^{-8}\frac{W}{m^{2} K^{4}})(0.0005m^{2})(1000.15K)^{4}} (4)  

Finally:

\epsilon=0.17 (5)  This is the body's emissivity

According to the navigation rules, which must be aboard a 22-foot powerboat
melomori [17]
The navigation rules for countries in the Unites States are compiled in the U.S. Coast Guard. There are actually boating courses that are recognized by the U.S Coast Guard. One of the things they discuss there is the emergency aids every boat should have depending on the size and purpose. For recreational vessels with lengths measuring less than 39.4 feet, they must carry aboard an efficient sound producing device. This will serve as your signal when emergencies happen and you have to get the attention of nearby boat vessels. Hence, for practical purposes, every boat should have a whistle or a horn.
