Answer:

4.42 x 10⁷ W/m²

Explanation:

A = energy absorbed = 500 J

η = efficiency = 0.90

E = Total energy

Total energy is given as

E = A/η

E = 500/0.90

E = 555.55 J

t = time = 4.00 s

Power of the beam is given as

P = E /t

P = 555.55/4.00

P = 138.88 Watt

d = diameter of the circular spot = 2.00 mm = 2 x 10⁻³ m

Area of the circular spot is given as

A = (0.25) πd²

A = (0.25) (3.14) (2 x 10⁻³)²

A = 3.14 x 10⁻⁶ m²

Intensity of the beam is given as

I = P /A

I = 138.88 / (3.14 x 10⁻⁶)

I = 4.42 x 10⁷ W/m²

The intensity of a laser beam : <u>4.42.10⁷ W/m²</u>

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The energy transferred by waves per unit area per unit time is called wave intensity  

Because energy per unit time is Power, the intensity of the wave is equal to Power divided by area  

\rm P=\dfrac{W}{t}

P = power, watt

W = energy, J  

t = time, s  

For waves that spread in all directions, the intensity at the distance R from the source can be formulated  

\rm I=\dfrac{Power}{Area}=\dfrac{P}{\pi .R^2}

From the equation above shows the intensity of the wave is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source.  

\rm I\approx \dfrac{1}{R^2}

The farther the wave spreads, the smaller the intensity  

Cancerous tissue area:

\rm A=\dfrac{1}{4}\pi d^2\\\\A=\dfrac{1}{4}\pi(2.10^{-3})^2\Rightarrow d=2~mm=2.10^{-3}\:m\\\\A=\frac{1}{4}\pi 4.10^{-6}\\\\A=\pi .10^{-6}\\\\A=3.14.10^{-6}

So that the intensity

\rm 0.9I(only~90\%~absorbed)=\dfrac{W}{A.t}\\\\0.9I=\dfrac{500}{3.14.10^{-6}.4}\\\\I=4.42.10^7~\dfrac{W}{m^2}

A mechanic needs to replace the motor for a merry-go-round. The merry-go-round should accelerate from rest to 1.5 rad/s in 6.0s
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

109656.25 Nm

Explanation:

\omega_f = Final angular velocity = 1.5 rad/s

\omega_i = Initial angular velocity = 0

\alpha = Angular acceleration

t = Time taken = 6 s

m = Mass of disk = 29000 kg

r = Radius = 5.5 m

\omega_f=\omega_i+\alpha t\\\Rightarrow \alpha=\dfrac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{t}\\\Rightarrow \alpha=\dfrac{1.5-0}{6}\\\Rightarrow \alpha=0.25\ rad/s^2

Torque is given by

\tau=I\alpha\\\Rightarrow \tau=\dfrac{1}{2}mr^2\alpha\\\Rightarrow \tau=\dfrac{1}{2}29000\times 5.5^2\times 0.25\\\Rightarrow \tau=109656.25\ Nm

The torque specifications must be 109656.25 Nm

Một đoạn mạch gồm R1=8 ôm;R2=12 ôm.biết R1 nối tiếp với đoạn mạch gồm R2 song song với R3; R3=1/2 R2 cường độ dòng điện chạy qua
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

Explanation:

a.

b. R3= 1/2R2=6 ôm

R12= R1+R2=20 ôm

Rtđ=R12.R3/R12+R3= 4,62 ôm

c. U= I.Rtđ = 2.4,62=9,23 V

I1=I2= 9,23/20= 0,4615 A

I3= 2-0,4615=1,5385 A

The recoil of a shotgun can be significant. Suppose a 3.6-kg shotgun is held tightly by an arm and shoulder with a combined mass
devlian [24]

Answer:

The velocity of the recoil is v=1.001 \frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

Kinetic Energy

m_{bullet}*v_{bullet}=m_{gun}*v_{recoil}\\m_{gun}= 15.0kg+3.6kg

The mass of th gun is the both mass the shotgun and the arm shoulder combination

m_{bullet}=0.049kg\\v_{bullet}=380\frac{m}{s} \\m_{bullet}*v_{bullet}=m_{gun}*v_{recoil}\\0.049kg*380\frac{m}{s}=(15.kg+3.6kg)* v_{recoil}\\v_{recoil}=-\frac{18.62 kg \frac{m}{s} }{18.6 kg}\\ v_{recoil}=-1.0010 \frac{m}{s}

The velocity is negative because is in opposite direction of the bullet
