Main sequence stars lay on a diagonal going from upper left angle to lower right angle. Part of main sequence is our Sun.

When we observe this diagram we need to compare giant stars and main sequence stars. GIant stars are positioned to upper right when compared to main sequence. From labels on coordinate axis we can see that giant stars generaly have lower temperature than main sequence stars. They also have higher brightness and lower magnitude (meaning that they are more bright in night sky).

1. A listener stands 20.0 m from a speaker that pumps out music with a power output of 100.0 W.

marta [7]

(1.a) The surface area being vibrated by the time the sound reaches the listener is 5,026.55 m².

(1.b) The intensity of the sound wave as it reaches the person listening is 0.02 W/m².

(1.c) The relative intensity of the sound as heard by the listener is 103 dB.

(2.a) The speed of sound if the air temperature is 15⁰C is 340.3 m/s.

(2.b) The frequency of the sound heard by the suspect is 614.3 Hz.

<h3>Surface area being vibrated</h3>

The surface area being vibrated by the time the sound reaches the listener is calculated as follows;

A = 4πr²

A = 4π x (20)²

A = 5,026.55 m²

<h3>Intensity of the sound</h3>

The intensity of the sound is calculated as follows;

I = P/A

I = (100) / (5,026.55)

I = 0.02 W/m²

<h3>Relative intensity of the sound</h3>

$B = 10log(\frac{I}{I_0} )\\\\B = 10 \times log(\frac{0.02}{10^{-12}} )\\\\B = 103 \ dB$

<h3>Speed of sound at the given temperature</h3>

$v= 331.3\sqrt{1 + \frac{T}{273} } \\\\v = 331.3\sqrt{1 + \frac{15}{273} } \\\\v = 340.3 \ m/s$

<h3>Frequency of the sound</h3>

The frequency of the sound heard is determined by applying Doppler effect.

$f_o = f_s(\frac{v \pm v_0}{v \pm v_s} )$

where;

-v₀ is velocity of the observer moving away from the source
-vs is the velocity of the source moving towards the observer
fs is the source frequency
fo is the observed frequency
v is speed of sound

$f_0 = f_s(\frac{v-v_0}{v- v_s} )$

$f_0 = 512(\frac{340.3 - 10}{340.3 - 65} )\\\\f_0 = 614.3 \ Hz$

Two identical trucks have mass 5100 kg when empty, and the maximum permissible load for each is 8000 kg. the first truck, carryi

Oksanka [162]

<span>The 2nd truck was overloaded with a load of 16833 kg instead of the permissible load of 8000 kg. The key here is the conservation of momentum. For the first truck, the momentum is 0(5100 + 4300) The second truck has a starting momentum of 60(5100 + x) And finally, after the collision, the momentum of the whole system is 42(5100 + 4300 + 5100 + x) So let's set the equations for before and after the collision equal to each other. 0(5100 + 4300) + 60(5100 + x) = 42(5100 + 4300 + 5100 + x) And solve for x, first by adding the constant terms 0(5100 + 4300) + 60(5100 + x) = 42(14500 + x) Getting rid of the zero term 60(5100 + x) = 42(14500 + x) Distribute the 60 and the 42. 60*5100 + 60x = 42*14500 + 42x 306000 + 60x = 609000 + 42x Subtract 42x from both sides 306000 + 18x = 609000 Subtract 306000 from both sides 18x = 303000 And divide both sides by 18 x = 16833.33 So we have the 2nd truck with a load of 16833.33 kg, which is well over it's maximum permissible load of 8000 kg. Let's verify the results by plugging that mass into the before and after collision momentums. 60(5100 + 16833.33) = 60(21933.33) = 1316000 42(5100 + 4300 + 5100 + 16833.33) = 42(31333.33) = 1316000 They match. The 2nd truck was definitely over loaded.</span>

The surface of the Sun has a temperature of about 5 800 K. If the radius of the Sun is 7 × 108 m, determine the power output of

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

a. $3.95\times10^{26}$ W

Explanation:

$T$ = temperature of the surface of sun = 5800 K

$r$ = Radius of the Sun = 7 x 10⁸ m

$A$ = Surface area of the Sun

Surface area of the sun is given as

$A = 4\pi r^{2} \\A = 4(3.14) (7\times10^{8})^{2}\\A = 6.2\times10^{18} m^{2}$

$e$ = Emissivity = 1

$\sigma$ = Stefan's constant = 5.67 x 10⁻⁸ Wm⁻²K⁻⁴

Using Stefan's law, Power output of the sun is given as

$P = \sigma e AT^{4} \\P = (5.67\times10^{-8}) (1) (6.2\times10^{18}) (5800)^{4}\\P = 3.95\times10^{26} W$

Which statement below could be used as evidence to support the claim that using nuclear energy to produce electricity is better

Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

Explanation:

C would make the most sense because the problem with fossil fuels is the fact that it emits greenhouse gases that warm up the earth over a long period of time as the climate has changed because of it.
