The sun emits energy in the form of electromagnetic waves produced by nuclear reactions deep in the sun's interior. Assume that

the rate of energy emission is W for this problem. Find the intensity of electromagnetic radiation at the surface of the sun (radius r =R = ). Ignore any scattering of waves as they move radially outward from the center of the sun. W/m2 Find the radiation pressure on an absorbing object at the surface of the sun, ignoring wave scattering. Pa Repeat for r = R/2, in the sun's interior. intensity of radiation W/m2 radiation pressure Pa What is the ratio of the intensity of radiation at the sun's surface to that given in Section 32.4 for sunlight just before it enters the earth's atmosphere? (Give only the order of magnitude of this ratio.)

Answer:

I = W / 4π R_{s}²,   P = W / 2π c R_{s}², Io /I_{earth} = 10⁴  

Explanation:

The intensity is defined as the ratio between the emitted power and the area of ​​the spherical surface

               I = P / A

Since the emitted power is constant and has a value of W for this case, let's look for the area of ​​the sphere on the surface of the sun

             A = 4π R_{s}²

             I = W / 4π R_{s}²

.- The radiation pressure for total absorption is

             P = S / c

Where S is the Pointer vector that is equal to the intensity

Let's replace

             P = W / 2π c R_{s}²

.- We repeat for r = R_{s}/2

              I₂ = W / 4π (R_{s}/ 2)²

              I₂ = 4 W / 4π R_{s}²

              I₂ = 4 Io

              I₀ = W / 4piRs2

    We calculate the radiation pressure

             P₂ = I₂ / c

             P₂ = 4 I₀ / c

             P₂ = 4 (W / 4pi c Rs2)

.- the relationship between these magnitudes is

            I₂ / I₀ = 4

            P₂ / P₀ = 4

Let's calculate the intensity on the surface where the Earth is

            r = 1.50 10¹¹ m

           I_{earth} = W / 4π r²

           Io / I_{earth}   = r² /R_{s}²

          Io /I_{earth}  = (1.5 10¹¹ / 6.96 10⁸) 2

          Io /I_{earth} = 4.6 10⁴

          Io /I_{earth} = 10⁴

An electric motor is connected to a battery. The current flows through brushes to a commutator ring, which is attached to a elec
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Commutator is a ring which reverse the direction of current in AC circuit so that the coil connected to it will continuous to move in the same direction.

Explanation:

In motors there exist a coil which is rotated due to torque of magnetic field when current flow through it. Since AC current is used to run the motor so we know that AC current changes its direction after half cycle.

So here commutator plays an important role to reverse the direction of current after every half cycle so that the current goes in same direction always into the coil.

This will produce a constant direction torque on the coil so that it will rotate in same sense always.

So commutator role is to provide same direction current to the coil by reversing its direction after every half cycle

What will happen when a light bulb is removed from the circuit below, leaving a gap?
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

The remaining light bulbs will go out.

Explanation:

The light bulb that was taken out routed power to the other light bulbs, there for, not giving power to the next light bulbs will make them turn off or, "go out". This may be incorrect, as you did not provide a picture of the circuit.

Per person, the energy consumption in the United States is about 3.3 × 10^8 Btu/yr. This is equivalent to a power of:________. A
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

3.3\times 10^8\ btu/yr=11\ kW

Explanation:

Btu of British thermal unit is a unit of heat. The relation between btu/year and watts is given by :

1\ btu/yr=3.343\times 10^{-5}\ W\\\\3.3\times 10^8\ btu/yr=3.343\times 10^{-5}\times 3.3\times 10^8\ W\\\\3.3\times 10^8\ btu/yr=11031.9\ W\\\\3.3\times 10^8\ btu/yr=11\ kW

So,  3.3\times 10^8\ btu/yr is equal to 11 kW. Hence, the correct option is (d).
