Answer:

a) 1392.54 *10^6 m

b) 3.8248284*10^26 W

c) 6.2783674*10^7 W/m^2

Explanation:

from the exercise we have the following values:

angular diameter of sun from earth, phi = 32'

solar constant, S = 1.36 kW/m^2

a. distance of sun from earth, d = 149.6*10^9 m

therefore

phi = D/d

clear D

D = d*phi

so we have

a) diameter of sun = D

D = 1392.54 *10^6 m

b. How much total power does the Sun emit? =P

P = S*4*pi*d^2

P= = 3.8248284*10^26 W

c. power flux on surface of sun = P/pi*D^2

c. power flux on surface of sun  = 6.2783674*10^7 W/m^2

Vesna [10]

Answer:

A. continental-oceanic convergent

Explanation:

I knew it couldn't be B because it's oceanic and <em>continental</em>, not oceanic and <em>oceanic</em>.

Next, I noticed the word <em>convergent</em>, which implies "coming together" to me.

I looked it up and noticed the term <em>convergent</em> referred to a plate boundary where a plate slips under (<em>subducted</em>) another, so I knew it was A.

Hopefully, this helps you understand the question better. Have a great day!

One carpenter builds 1/5 of a house in 3/4 of a day and the other builds 2/5 of a house in the same amount of time. How many hou
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

4/5 houses

Explanation:

The speed of the first carpenter is:

(1/5 house) / (3/4 day) = 4/15 house/day

The speed of the second carpenter is:

(2/5 house) / (3/4 day) = 8/15 house/day

Together, their combined speed is:

4/15 house/day + 8/15 house/day = 12/15 house/day

= 4/5 house/day

Per day, the two carpenters build 4/5 of a house.

A 1000kg car has a speed of 32m/s. If it takes 7s to stop the car, what is the impulse and the average force acting in the car
Alexus [3.1K]

1) Impulse: -32,000 kg m/s

The impulse acting on the car is equal to the change in momentum of the car:

I= \Delta p = m (v-u)

where in this problem we have

m = 1000 kg is the mass of the car

v = 0 m/s is the final velocity of the car

u = 32 m/s is the initial velocity of the car

Substituting values into the equation, we find

I=(1000 kg)(0-32 m/s)=-32,000 kg m/s

2) -4751 N

The impulse exerted on the car is also equal to the product between the average force, F, and the duration of the collision, t:

I=Ft

where in this situation we know

I=-32,000 kg m/s is the impulse

t = 7 s is the duration of the collision

Solving the formula for F, we find the average force:

F=\frac{I}{t}=\frac{-32,000 kg m/s}{7 s}=-4,571 N

and the negative sign means that the force is in the opposite direction to the motion of the car.

A woman lifts a 300 newton child a distance of 1.5 meters in 0.75 seconds. What is her power output in lifting the child?
Nitella [24]
Power = Work done / time

Work done = Force * Distance
                 =  300 N *  1.5 m =  450 J

Power =  450 / 0.75 = 600 Watts.

The water in a deep underground well is used as the cold resevoir of a Carnot heat pump that maintains the temperature of a hous
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

The temperature of well water be 288.07 K

Explanation:

We have given Heat in house Q_H=13900J

Work done W = 900 J

Efficiency is given by \eta =\frac{W}{Q_H}=\frac{900}{13900}=0.0647

Efficiency is also given by \eta =1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}, here T_L is lower temperature and T_H is higher temperature

So 0.0647=1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}

0.0647=1-\frac{T_L}{308}

T_L=288.07K

So the temperature of well water be 288.07 K
