Which of the following states of matter is always a good conductor of electricity? solid, liquid, gas, or plasma **:/ Thank you!

1 answer:

8 0

Plasma...I believe is always a good conductor of electricity. I was tempted to say a solid, but not all solids are the same in composition and that goes for liquid and gas as well.

Hopefully this helped and good luck.

<span>Perpendicular parking spaces require turning at a 90 degree angle.

When you are going to park perpendicularly, you need a distance of 7 to 8 feet from the vehicle you are parking next to, and when you are parking parallel, you need 5 feet distance from the vehicle you are parking next to.</span>

Radiation from the Sun The intensity of the radiation from the Sun measured on Earth is 1360 W/m2 and frequency is f = 60 MHz. T

Zina [86]

a) Total power output: $3.845\cdot 10^{26} W$

b) The relative percentage change of power output is 1.67%

c) The intensity of the radiation on Mars is $540 W/m^2$

Explanation:

The intensity of electromagnetic radiation is given by

$I=\frac{P}{A}$

where

P is the power output

A is the surface area considered

In this problem, we have

$I=1360 W/m^2$ is the intensity of the solar radiation at the Earth

The area to be considered is area of a sphere of radius

$r=1.5\cdot 10^{11} m$ (distance Earth-Sun)

Therefore

$A=4\pi r^2 = 4 \pi (1.5\cdot 10^{11})^2=2.8\cdot 10^{23}m^2$

And now, using the first equation, we can find the total power output of the Sun:

$P=IA=(1360)(2.8\cdot 10^{23})=3.845\cdot 10^{26} W$

The energy of the solar radiation is directly proportional to its frequency, given the relationship

$E=hf$

where E is the energy, h is the Planck's constant, f is the frequency.

Also, the power output of the Sun is directly proportional to the energy,

$P=\frac{E}{t}$

where t is the time.

This means that the power output is proportional to the frequency:

$P\propto f$

Here the frequency increases by 1 MHz: the original frequency was

$f_0 = 60 MHz$

so the relative percentage change in frequency is

$\frac{\Delta f}{f_0}\cdot 100 = \frac{1}{60}\cdot 100 =1.67\%$

And therefore, the power also increases by 1.67 %.

In this second case, we have to calculate the new power output of the Sun:

$P' = P + \frac{1.67}{100}P =1.167P=1.0167(3.845\cdot 10^{26})=3.910\cdot 10^{26} W$

Now we want to calculate the intensity of the radiation measured on Mars. Mars is 60% farther from the Sun than the Earth, so its distance from the Sun is

$r'=(1+0.60)r=1.60r=1.60(1.5\cdot 10^{11})=2.4\cdot 10^{11}m$

Now we can find the radiation intensity with the equation

$I=\frac{P}{A}$

Where the area is

$A=4\pi r'^2 = 4\pi(2.4\cdot 10^{11})^2=7.24\cdot 10^{23} m^2$

And substituting,

$I=\frac{3.910\cdot 10^{26}}{7.24\cdot 10^{23}}=540 W/m^2$

A book is dropped from a window. It takes 5 seconds to reach the ground. What is its velocity after 2 seconds? What’s the veloci

ira [324]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial velocity is 0. In the equation v = v0+at where v0 is the initial velocity of 0, we only have to fill in -9.8 for a and 2 for t to get the velocity after 2 seconds -19.6 m/s; after 5 seconds, when it hits the ground, a = -9.8 and t = 5 to give a velocity of -49 m/s. Gravity pulls down everything at the same rate, it doesn't matter whether we drop a feather or an elephant from the window!
