Felipe was enjoying the sunny day at the beach. He told his friend Carl that he was really  enjoying the warm feeling that he was getting as he sat in the Sun. Carl explained that the  electromagnetic radiation was responsible for this warm feeling. The electromagnetic spectrum which was responsible for making Felipe feel warm is

<u>Infrared rays</u>

Explanation:

  • Infrared radiation (IR), or infrared light, is a type of radiant energy that's invisible to human eyes but that we can feel as heat.
  • All objects in the universe emit some level of IR radiation, but two of the most obvious sources are the sun and fire.
  • Infrared radiation has a longer wavelength and lower frequency than visible light. Too much exposure can damage your eyes and skin. On a global scale, trapped infrared radiation contributes to global warming.
  • Most warm objects in our everyday experiences emit infrared, and half of the energy produced by the Sun is also infrared.
  • The primary source of infrared radiation is heat or thermal radiation. This is the radiation produced by the motion of atoms and molecules in an object.

2. An alternating current is represented by the equation I=20sin 100mt.
Sladkaya [172]

Explanation:

The general equation of an AC current is given by :

I=I_o sin\omega t

Where

I₀ is the peak value of current

\omega is angular frequency

As\ \omega=2\pi f

So,

f=\dfrac{\omega}{2\pi}\\\\f=\dfrac{100\pi}{2\pi}\\\\f=50\ Hz

We know that,

I_{rms}=\dfrac{I_0}{\sqrt{2}}\\\\=\dfrac{20}{\sqrt{2}}\\\\I_{rms}=14.14\ A

So, the frequency is 50 Hz and the maximum rms value of current is 14.14 A.

Car accelerates 86km/hr in 4.6s . What is the average acceleration in m/s^2
never [62]

speed = 86km/hr

= 86000/3600

= 23.889m/s

time = 4.6s

acceleration = 23.889/4.6

a = 5.19m/s^2

If you stung by a honey bee. why we suggest rub with baking soda why?​
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

When a bee stings, it injects methanoic acid into the skin which causes immense pain and irritation. Rubbing of baking soda on the sting area gives relief because, being alkaline in nature, baking soda neutralizes the effect of methanoic acid and gives relief.

The total consumption of electrical energy in the United States is about 1.0 1019 joules per year.
dexar [7]

Answer:

a) 316880878140.2895 Joules

b) 1056.26 Joules

c) 372.80103310622 km²

Explanation:

Energy consumption

E=\frac{P}{t}\\\Rightarrow E=\frac{1\times 10^{19}}{365.25\times 24\times 60\times 60}\\\Rightarrow E=316880878140.2895\ W

Average rate of electrical energy consumption is 316880878140.2895 Joules

Total population = 300 million

E=\frac{316880878140.2895}{300\times 10^6}\\\Rightarrow E=1056.26\ J

Each person consumes 1056.26 Joules.

Efficiency = 0.85

Power from Sun

0.85\times 1000=850\ W/m^2

Area

\frac{316880878140.2895}{850}=372801033.10622\ m^2

Converting to km²

372801033.10622=\frac{372801033.10622}{1000\times 1000}=372.80103310622\ km^2

Area required to collect the electrical energy used in the United States is 372.80103310622 km²
