Answer: Decibels

Explanation:

Decibel is the unit which used to measure intensity of sound. Sound intensity is the power carried by the sound waves per unit area perpendicular to it.

I = \frac{P}{A} measured in W/m²

In decibels:

I (dB) = 10 log_{10}\frac{I}{I_o}

With each unit rise of decibel, the sound intensity varies by a factor of 10.

Find the intensity of electromagnetic radiation at the surface of the sun (radius r=R=6.96×105kmr=R=6.96×105km). Ignore any scat
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

I = 4.46*10^{16}W/m^2.

Explanation:

Intensity I of the electromagnetic radiation is given by

I = \dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2},

where r is the distance from the EM source (the center of the sun, in our case), and P is the power output of the sun and it has the value

P = 3.9 *10^{26}W.

Since the radius of the sun in meters is r = 6.96*10^8km, the intensity I of the electromagnetic radiation at the surface of the sun is

I = \dfrac{3.9*10^{26}W}{4\pi (6.96*10^8m)^2}\\\\\boxed{ I = 4.46*10^{16}W/m^2}

The intensity of the electromagnetic radiation at the surface of the sun is I = 4.46*10^{16}W/m^2.

How do you tell a stars life expectancy based on an hr diagram?
e-lub [12.9K]
The X-axis of the H-R Diagram indicates the star's surface temperature in degrees Kelvin.  The Y-axis, on the other hand, indicates luminosity, or brightness.

Main sequence refers to a roughly diagonal, slightly S-curved line stretching between the upper-left and lower-right corners on which main sequence stars chart. They maintain a predictable relationship between luminosity and temperature: the brighter, the hotter. The upper-right quadrant of the H-R diagram is home to newly discovered red giants while the lower-left quadrant of the H-R Diagram belongs almost exclusively to white dwarfs.
