The sun radiates energy. Does the earth similarly radiate energy? If so, why can’t we see the radiant energy from the earth?

1 answer:

6 0

Yes, the earth radiates energy, but since the peak frequency f is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the radiator, the wavelength of the radiation is far too long for us to see.

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Radiations or light rays are the basic name for electromagnetic energy packets travelling through space. It goes extremely quick (multiple times around the earth in one second) and can go through a vacuum. It needn't bother with material to travel in.

It has numerous structures, including visible light, infrared (IR), bright (UV), X-beams, microwaves, and radio waves. These are a no different structure of energy, just with various frequencies and measures of energy. Various frequencies of radiation communicate with an issue in an unexpected way, which causes them to appear to be more changed to us than they truly are.

Which solid dissolves faster in water? sugar cube or powdered sugar

Verdich [7]

Answer: Powdered sugar

Powdered sugar dissolves faster compare to the sugar cube. Because sugar cube has less surface area (the granules are tightly packed) compared to powdered sugar

How do I solve the following problem?

lukranit [14]

Use the impulse-momentum theorem.

$Ft = mv$

Substitute your known values:

$(120kg)(20m/s) = F(1.5)

F= 1600N$

Hope this helps!

What is the root mean square speed of an As4 particle as it is sublimed? (Assume at high temperatures arsenic acts like an ideal

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer: $v_{rms} =$ 273m/s

Explanation: Root Mean Square Speed of an atom or molecule is the speed of a particle in a gas. It is the average speed a particle in a gas can have.

It can be calculated:

$\frac{1}{2}mv^{2} = \frac{3}{2} k_{B}T$

$v^{2} = \frac{3k_{B}T}{m}$

$v = \sqrt{\frac{3k_{B}T}{m}}$

m is mass of one atom or molecule in kg.

An atom of Arsenic sublimes at 614°C. Converting to Kelvin:

T = 614 + 273 = 887K

Molecular mass of As4 is approximately 0.3kg.

$m = \frac{0.3}{6.10^{23}}$

$m=5.10^{-25}$ kg

Calculating Root mean square speed :

$v = \sqrt{\frac{3*1.4.10^{-23}*887}{5.10^{-25}}$

$v = \sqrt{745.08.10^{2}$

v = 273m/s

The root mean square speed of As4 is approximately 273m/s.

A weightlifter presses a 400 n weight 0.5 m over his head in 2 seconds, what is the power of the weight lifter

Scrat [10]

There are two ways to solve this problem. First we write the given.

Given: Force F = 400 N; Height h = 0.5 m; Time t = 2 s

Formula: P = W/t; but Work W = Force x distance or W = f x d

Weight is also a Force, therefore: W = mg, solve for Mass m = ?

m = w/g m = 400 N/9.8 m/s² m = 40.82 Kg

P = W/t = F x d/t = mgh/t P = (40.82 Kg)(9.8 m/s²)/2 s

P = 100 J/s or 100 Watts
