The equation expressing the statement "y varies directly as x"  is y=kx.

Explanation

The statement that y varies directly as x is analogous to saying that  the ratio of y to x is constant. In other words, when x increases, y likewise increases and that when x decreases, y decreases proportionally.

Mathematically, we express the relationship that the ration of y is to x is constant is expressed as; \frac{y}{x} =k where k is the constant of proportionality.

We can then solve the relationship for y to determine the correct form of the relationship as shown below,

\frac{y}{x} =k\\\rightarrow y=kx

Our Sun shines bright with a luminosity of 3.828 x 1025 Watt. Her energies
kifflom [539]

Answer:

a)   E = 1.58 10²¹ J , b) Oil = 4,236 107 liter ,  e)   T = 54.3 C

Explanation:

a) To calculate the energy that reaches Earth, let us combine that the power emitted by the Sun is distributed uniformly on a spherical surface

     I = P / A

     A = 4π r²

in this case the radius of the sphere is the distance from the Sun to Earth r = 1.5 10¹¹ m

     I = P / A

     I = P / 4π r²

let's calculate

     I = 3,828 10²⁵/4 pi (1.5 10¹¹)²

     I = 1.3539 10²W / m² = 135.4 W / m2

the energy that reaches the disk of the Earth is

    E = I A

the area of ​​a disc

    A = π r²

    E = I π r²

where r is the radius of the Earth 6.37 10⁶ m

     E = 135.4 π(6.37 10⁶)

     E = 1,726 10¹⁶ W

This is the energy per unit of time that reaches Earth

    t = 1 dai (24h / 1day) (3600s / 1h) = 86400 s

     

    E = 1,826 10¹⁶ 86400

     E = 1.58 10²¹ J

b) for this part we can use a direct proportions rule

      Oil = 1.58 10²¹ (1 / 37.3 10⁶)

      Oil = 4,236 10⁷ liter

c) to silence the surface temperature of the Earth we use the Stefan-Bolztman Law

       P = σ A e T⁴

       T = \sqrt[4]{P/Ae}

nos indicate the refect, therefore the amount of absorbencies

       P_absorbed = 0.7 P

let's calculate

       T = REA (0.7 1.58 1021 / [pi (6.37 106) 2 1)

       T = RER (8,676 106)

       T = 54.3 C

b) Among the other factors that must be taken into account is the greenhouse effect, due to the absorption of gases from the atmosphere

The tops of the towers of the Golden Gate Bridge in San franciscoo , are 227 m above the water. Suppose a worker drops a 655 g w
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Kinetic energy is 1425.11 J.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the wrench is, m=655\ g=0.655\ kg

Height of fall is, h=227\ m

Force of resistance is, F=0.141\ N

Now, the total energy at the top is equal to the potential energy of the wrench at the top since the kinetic energy at the top is 0.

Now, potential energy at the top is given as:

U=mgh\\U=0.655\times 9.8\times 227\\U=1457.113\ J

Now, the potential energy at the top is converted to kinetic energy at the bottom and some energy is wasted in overcoming the resistance force by air.

Potential Energy = Kinetic energy + Energy to overcome resistance.

⇒ Kinetic energy = Potential Energy - Energy to overcome resistance.

Energy to overcome resistance force is the work done by the wrench against the resistance force and is given as:

W_{res}=Fh=0.141\times 227=32.007\ J

Therefore, Kinetic energy at the bottom is given as:

K=U-W_{res}\\\\K=1457.113\ J - 32.007\ J\\\\K=1425.106\approx1425.11\ J

Hence, the kinetic energy of the wrench be when it hits the water is 1425.11 J.

A man walks 7 km, east in 2 hours and 2 km in 1 hour in the same direction. a) what is
Rzqust [24]

Explanation:

Average speed = distance / time

|v| = (7 km + 2 km) / (2 hr + 1 hr)

|v| = 3 km/hr

Average velocity = displacement / time

v = (7 km east + 2 km east) / (2 hr + 1 hr)

v = 3 km/hr east

A 4,000 kg truck is moving at +10 m/s hits a 1500 kg parked car which moves off at +10 m/s. What is the velocity of the truck
Igoryamba

Answer:

10m/s

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of momentums

M1u1+m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

Substitute.

4000(10)+1500(10) = (4000+1500)v

40,000+15,000 = 5,500v

55000 = 5500v

v = 55000/5500

v= 10m/s

Hence the velocity of the truck after Collision is 10m/s
