Photosynthesis is the process by which plants and other things make food. It is a chemical process that uses sunlight to turn carbon dioxide into sugars that the cell can use as energy. As well as plants, many kinds of algae, protists and bacteria use it to get food.

The company where you work has obtained and stored five lasers in a supply room. You have been asked to determine the intensity

VikaD [51]

Answer:

a) I = 5.79 10⁵ W/m² , b) I = 2.58 10² W / m², c) I = 8.03 10³ W / m² , d) I = 5.3 10⁶ W / m², e) I = 9 10¹ W / m² , f) D> A> C> B> E

Explanation:

The intensity is defined as the power per unit area

I = P / A

The area of a circle is

A = π r²

Laser A

Power P = 2.2 W

Diameter d = 2.9 mm = 2.9 10⁻³ m

Let's calculate

Area

A = π d² / 4

A = π (2.2 10⁻³)²/4

A = 3.80 10⁻⁶ m²

Let's calculate the intensity

I = 2.2 / 3.80 10⁻⁶

I = 0.579 10⁶ W / m²

I = 5.79 10⁵ W/m²

Laser B

The electric field is E = 440 V / m

Intensity average is

I = E B / 2 μ₀

The relationship of the fields with the speed of light

E / B = c

The intensity

I = EE / 2 μ₀ c

I = 440² / (2 4π 10⁻⁷ 3 10⁸)

I = 1.936 105/750

I = 2.58 10² W / m²

Laser C

The magnetic field amplitude B = 8.2 10⁻⁶ T

I = c / 2μ₀ B²

I = 3 10⁸/2 4π 10⁻⁷ (8.2 10⁻⁶)²

I = 8.03 10³ W / m²

Part D

Diameter d = 1.8 mm = 1.8 10⁻³ m

The radius is r = d / 2 = 0.9 10⁻³ m

The force is F = 9.0 10⁻⁸ N

The radiation pressure is on a reflective surface is

P = 2S / c

I = S =P c / 2

The definition of pressure is

P = F / A

I = F c / 2 A

I = 9.0 10⁻⁸ 3 10⁸ / (2π (0.9 10⁻³)²)

I = 5.3 10⁶ W / m²

Part E

Average energy density

u = 3.0 10⁻⁷ J / m³

I = S = c u

I = 3 10⁸ 3.0 10⁻⁷

I = 9 10¹ W / m²

Part F

Sort in descending order

The order is

D> A> C> B> E

You're in a car that gets 28 miles per gallon of gas, driving it at a constant speed. If you took the gas from the car tank, and

Nataly [62]

Answer:

The diameter of the hose is 0.326 mm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of car = 28 miles/galllon

We need to calculate the radius

The rate of flow of fluid is from the equation of continuity

$\dfrac{V}{t}=Av$

Where, A = area of cross sectional

$\dfrac{V}{t}=\pi r^2v$

We know that,

The velocity is the ratio of displacement of gas per unit time.

$\dfrac{V}{t}=\pi r^\dfrac{x}{t}$

$\dfrac{V}{x}=\pi r^2$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{0.00378541}{28\times1609.34}=\pi r^2$

$r=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.00378541}{28\times1609.34\times\pi}}$

$r=1.63\times10^{-4}\ m$

We need to calculate the diameter of the hose

$d = 2r$

Put the value of r

$d=2\times1.63\times10^{-4}$

$d=0.326\ mm$

Hence, The diameter of the hose is 0.326 mm.

A 1.0-kilogram rubber ball traveling east at 4.0 meters per second hits a wall and bounces back toward the west at 2.0 meters pe

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

8 J and 2 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the rubber ball, m = 1 kg

Initial speed of the rubber ball, u = 4 m/s (in east)

Final speed of the rubber ball, v = -2 m/s (in west)

We need to find the kinetic energy of the ball before it hits the wall, the kinetic energy of the ball after it bounces off the wall.

Initial kinetic energy,

$K_i=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\K_i=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1\times (4)^2\\\\K_i=8\ J$

Final kinetic energy,

$K_f=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\K_f=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1\times (2)^2\\\\K_f=2\ J$

So, the initial kinetic energy is 8 J and the final kinetic energy is 2 J.

How large amount of energy is produced during the fission of uranium

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

answer is a very large amount of energy is produced from a very small mass

Explanation:

nuclear energy is produced either by fusion or fission the former is fusion of lighter atoms into heavier elements while the letter is the splitting of a heavier atom into lighter atoms. both produce tremendous amount of energy fusion causes compassion of mass wild fission reduces it. and produce it. fusion does not produce radioactive particles while fission does (alpha and beta particles and neutrons)
