Gravity is universal. This force of gravitational attraction is directly dependent upon the masses of both objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates their centers. This means that as you move away from an object the gravitational force decreases.

A compact car, mass 660 kg, is moving at 1.00 ✕ 102 km/h toward the east. The driver of the compact car suddenly applies the bra

Maslowich

Answer: $59.43\times 10^3 kg-m/s$

Explanation:

Given

mass of car $m=660 kg$

Initial velocity of car $=102 km/h\approx 28.33 m/s$ towards east

Time taken to stop $t=2.1 s$

Force exerted $F_{avg}=4.8\times 10^3 N$

change in momentum is given by impulse imparted to the car

$Impulse(J)=-F\cdot t$

$J=-4.8\times 10^3\times 2.1$

$J=-59.49\times 10^3 kg-m/s$

negative Sign indicates that impulse is imparted opposite to the direction of motion

magnitude of momentum $J=59.49\times 10^3$

Suppose your surface body temperature averaged 90 degrees F. How much radiant energy in W/m^2 would be emitted from your body?

Debora [2.8K]

$493 \; \text{W}\cdot \text{m}^{-2}$ .

<h3>Explanation</h3>

The Stefan-Boltzmann Law gives the energy radiation <em>per unit area</em> of a black body:

$\dfrac{P}{A} = \sigma \cdot T^{4}$

where,

$P$ the total power emitted,
$A$ the surface area of the body,
$\sigma$ the Stefan-Boltzmann Constant, and
$T$ the temperature of the body in degrees Kelvins.

$\sigma = 5.67 \times 10^{-8} \;\text{W}\cdot \text{m}^{-2} \cdot \text{K}^{-4}$ .

$T = 90 \; \textdegree{}\text{F} = (\dfrac{5}{9} \cdot (90-32) + 273.15) \; \text{K} = 305.372 \; \text{K}$ .

$\dfrac{P}{A} = \sigma \cdot T^{4} = 5.67 \times 10^{-8} \times 305.372^{4} = 493\; \text{W}\cdot \text{m}^{-2}$ .

Keep as many significant figures in $T$ as possible. The error will be large when $T$ is raised to the power of four. Also, the real value will be much smaller than $493\; \text{W}\cdot \text{m}^{-2}$ since the emittance of a human body is much smaller than assumed.

A spherically-spreading EM wave comes from a 104.0 W source. At a distance of 9.6 m, what is the intensity of the wave?

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

Approximately 0.0898 W/m².

Explanation:

The intensity of light measures the power that the light delivers per unit area.

The source in this question delivers a constant power of $\rm 104.0\; W$ . If the source here is a point source, that $\rm 104.0\; W$ of power will be spread out evenly over a spherical surface that is centered at the point source. In this case, the radius of the surface will be 9.6 meters.

The surface area of a sphere of radius $r$ is equal to $4\pi r^{2}$ . For the imaginary 9.6-meter sphere here, the surface area will be:

$\rm 4\pi \times (9.6\; m)^{2} \approx 1158.12\; m^{2}$ .

That $\rm 104.0\; W$ power is spread out evenly over this 9.6-meter sphere. The power delivered per unit area will be:

$\displaystyle\rm \frac{104.0\; W}{1158.12\; m^{2}}\approx 0.0898\; W\cdot m^{-2}$ .
