Answer:

a) What are the characteristics of the radiation emitted by a blackbody?

The total emitted energy per unit of time and per unit of area depends in its temperature (Stefan-Boltzmann law).

The peak of emission for the spectrum will be displaced to shorter wavelengths as the temperature increase (Wien’s displacement law).

The spectral density energy is related with the temperature and the wavelength (Planck’s law).

b) According to Wien's Law, how many times hotter is an object whose blackbody emission spectrum peaks in the blue, at a wave length of 450 nm, than a object whose spectrum peaks in the red, at 700 nm?

The object with the blackbody emission spectrum peak in the blue is 1.55 times hotter than the object with the blackbody emission spectrum peak in the red.

Explanation:

A blackbody is an ideal body that absorbs all the thermal radiation that hits its surface, thus becoming an excellent emitter, as these bodies express themselves without light radiation, and therefore they look black.

The radiation of a blackbody depends only on its temperature, thus being independent of its shape, material and internal constitution.

If it is study the behavior of the total energy emitted from a blackbody at different temperatures, it can be seen how as the temperature increases the energy will also increase, this energy emitted by the blackbody is known as spectral radiance and the result of the behavior described previously is Stefan's law:

E = \sigma T^{4}  (1)

Where \sigma is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant and T is the temperature.

The Wien’s displacement law establish how the peak of emission of the spectrum will be displace to shorter wavelengths as the temperature increase (inversely proportional):

\lambda max = \frac{2.898x10^{-3} m. K}{T}   (2)

Planck’s law relate the temperature with the spectral energy density (shape) of the spectrum:

E_{\lambda} = {{8 \pi h c}\over{{\lambda}^5}{(e^{({hc}/{\lambda \kappa T})}-1)}}}  (3)

b) According to Wien's Law, how many times hotter is an object whose blackbody emission spectrum peaks in the blue, at a wavelength of 450 nm, than a object whose spectrum peaks in the red, at 700 nm?

It is need it to known the temperature of both objects before doing the comparison. That can be done by means of the Wien’s displacement law.

Equation (2) can be rewrite in terms of T:

T = \frac{2.898x10^{-3} m. K}{\lambda max}   (4)

Case for the object with the blackbody emission spectrum peak in the blue:

Before replacing all the values in equation (4), \lambda max (450 nm) will be express in meters:

450 nm . \frac{1m}{1x10^{9} nm}  ⇒ 4.5x10^{-7}m

T = \frac{2.898x10^{-3} m. K}{4.5x10^{-7}m}

T = 6440 K

Case for the object with the blackbody emission spectrum peak in the red:

Following the same approach above:

700 nm . \frac{1m}{1x10^{9} nm}  ⇒ 7x10^{-7}m

T = \frac{2.898x10^{-3} m. K}{7x10^{-7}m}

T = 4140 K

Comparison:

\frac{6440 K}{4140 K} = 1.55

The object with the blackbody emission spectrum peak in the blue is 1.55 times hotter than the object with the blackbody emission spectrum peak in the red.

A torsional pendulum consists of a disk of mass 450 g and radius 3.5 cm, hanging from a wire. If the disk is given an initial an
Montano1993 [528]

To solve this problem we will use the kinematic equations of angular motion, starting from the definition of angular velocity in terms of frequency, to verify the angular displacement and its respective derivative, let's start:

\omega = 2\pi f

\omega = 2\pi (2.5)

\omega = 5\pi rad/s

The angular displacement is given as the form:

\theta (t) = \theta_0 cos(\omega t)

In the equlibrium we have to t=0, \theta(t) = \theta_0 and in the given position we have to

\theta(t) = \theta_0 cos(5\pi t)

Derived the expression we will have the equivalent to angular velocity

\frac{d\theta}{dt} = 2.7rad/s

Replacing,

\theta_0(sin(5\pi t))5\pi = 2.7

Finally

\theta_0 = \frac{2.7}{5\pi}rad = 9.848\°

Therefore the maximum angular displacement is 9.848°

Assume that at sea-level the air pressure is 1.0 atm and the air density is 1.3 kg/m3.
scoundrel [369]

Answer

Pressure, P = 1 atm

air density, ρ = 1.3 kg/m³

a) height of the atmosphere when the density is constant

   Pressure at sea level = 1 atm = 101300 Pa

   we know

   P = ρ g h

   h = \dfrac{P}{\rho\ g}

   h = \dfrac{101300}{1.3\times 9.8}

          h = 7951.33 m

height of the atmosphere will be equal to 7951.33 m

b) when air density decreased linearly to zero.

  at x = 0  air density = 0

  at x= h   ρ_l = ρ_sl

 assuming density is zero at x - distance

 \rho_x = \dfrac{\rho_{sl}}{h}\times x

now, Pressure at depth x

dP = \rho_x g dx

dP = \dfrac{\rho_{sl}}{h}\times x g dx

integrating both side

P = g\dfrac{\rho_{sl}}{h}\times \int_0^h x dx

P =\dfrac{\rho_{sl}\times g h}{2}

 now,

h=\dfrac{2P}{\rho_{sl}\times g}

h=\dfrac{2\times 101300}{1.3\times 9.8}

  h = 15902.67 m

height of the atmosphere is equal to 15902.67 m.
