Answer:

A₁/A₂ = 0.136

Explanation:

The power radiated by a filament bulb is given by the following formula:

E = σεAT⁴

where,

E = Emissive Power

σ = Stephen Boltzman Constant

ε = emissivity

A = Area

T = Absolute Temperature

Therefore, for bulb 1:

E₁ = σε₁A₁T₁⁴

And for bulb 2:

E₂ = σε₂A₂T₂⁴

Dividing both the equations:

E₁/E₂ = σε₁A₁T₁⁴/σε₂A₂T₂⁴

According to given condition, the emissive power and the emissivity is same for both the bulbs. Therefore,

E/E = σεA₁T₁⁴/σεA₂T₂⁴

1 = A₁T₁⁴/A₂T₂⁴

A₁/A₂ = (T₂/T₁)⁴

where,

T₁ = 2800 K

T₂ = 1700 K

Therefore,

A₁/A₂ = (1700 K/2800 K)⁴

<u>A₁/A₂ = 0.136</u>

Analyze the following terms and phrases about solar activity. Select the two that represent correct matches between cause and ef
blagie [28]

Answer:

a) solar activity -- sudden eruptions of large bubbles of plasma and magnetic energy

and

d) solar flare -- sudden release of magnetic energy

Explanation:

We can start by eliminating the options that are definitely wrong.

A coronal mass ejection is not a relatively cool spot on surface of the sun, in fact such a spot is a sunspot, while a coronal mass ejection occurs when the  magnetic field of the sun emerges as a loop. Thus, both options B and E are incorrect, leaving only A,  C, and D. Option C makes no sense, as the sun's gravitational field does not 'churn'. Thus, only options A and D are left. A closer look at A and D reveals they are correct; solar flares are in fact sudden releases of magnetic energy, as seen in this quote from UC Berkeley's website; "Solar flares are caused by sudden changes of strong magnetic fields in the Sun's corona.". And solar activity is a blanket term for the effects of eruptions of plasma and magnetic energy from the sun.

What is the force on a 15.5 kg ball that is falling freely due to the pull of gravity
velikii [3]

Answer:

151.9 N

Explanation:

Force = mass x acceleration

Acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s^2 (you should memorize this number).

F = ma

F = (15.5)(9.8)

F = 151.9

In a certain clock, a pendulum of length L1 has a period T1 = 0.95s. The length of the pendulum
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Ratio of length will be \frac{L_2}{L_1}=1.108

Explanation:

We have given time period of the pendulum when length is L_1 is T_1=0.95sec

And when length is L_2 time period T_2=1sec

We know that time period is given by

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

So 0.95=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L_1}{g}}----eqn 1

And 1=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L_2}{g}}-------eqn 2

Dividing eqn 2 by eqn 1

\frac{1}{0.95}=\sqrt{\frac{L_2}{L_1}}

Squaring both side

\frac{L_2}{L_1}=1.108
