When the distance between a point source of light and a light meter is reduced from 6.0m to 2.0 m, the intensity of illumination

at the meter will be the original value multiplied by _____.
Physics
1 answer:
Sergeeva-Olga [200]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the point source have power P .

At distance r , the intensity I

I = P / 4πr² . If intensity at 6 m and 2 m be I₁ and I₂

I₁ = P / 4π x 6²

I₂ =  P / 4π x 2²

I₁ / I₂ = 2² / 6²

= 1 / 9

I₂ = 9 I₁

Intensity will be 9 times that at 6 m .

Describe how to prepare a 10.0% w/v solution of salt in water in a 100 mL volumetric flask
Sphinxa [80]
To prepare a 10.0% w/v solution of salt in water in a 100 mL volumetric flask, first you must weigh 10 g of salt because the 10 % 100 is 10 and the given should be 10 % w/v. place the 10 g salt to the volumetric flask then add water up until to mark of the volumetric flask then shake it.

You have a stopped pipe of adjustable length close to a taut 62.0 cmcm, 7.25 gg wire under a tension of 4710 NN. You want to adj
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

6 cm long

Explanation:

F = 4110N

Vo(speed of sound) = 344m/s

Mass = 7.25g = 0.00725kg

L = 62.0cm = 0.62m

Speed of a wave in string is

V = √(F / μ)

V = speed of the wave

F = force of tension acting on the string

μ = mass per unit density

F(n) = n (v / 2L)

L = string length

μ = mass / length

μ = 0.00725 / 0.62

μ = 0.0116 ≅ 0.0117kg/m

V = √(F / μ)

V = √(4110 / 0.0117)

v = 592.69m/s

Second overtone n = 3 since it's the third harmonic

F(n) = n * (v / 2L)

F₃ = 3 * [592.69 / (2 * 0.62)

F₃ = 1778.07 / 1.24 = 1433.927Hz

The frequency for standing wave in a stopped pipe

f = n (v / 4L)

Since it's the first fundamental, n = 1

1433.93 = 344 / 4L

4L = 344 / 1433.93

4L = 0.2399

L = 0.0599

L = 0.06cm

L = 6cm

The pipe should be 6 cm long

In 8.5 s a fisherman winds 2.4 m of fishing line onto a reel whose radius is 3.0 cm (assumed to be constant as an approximation)
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

9.412 rad/s.

Explanation:

Velocity is the rate of change of an object's position.

V = x/t

Where x is the distance in m

= 2.4 m

t is time taken in s

= 8.5 s

V = 2.4/8.5

= 0.2824 m/s.

Equating linear velocity and angular velocity,

V = ω*r

Where,

ω Is the angular speed in rad/s

r is the radius of the circle in m

= 3 cm

= 3cm * 1m/100 cm = 0.03 m

ω = V/r

= 0.2824/0.03

= 9.412 rad/s.

Summary about down hill on a bicycle story​
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

The poem, Going Down the Hill on a Bicycle, written by Henry Charles Beeching describes the thrilling ride of a boy going downhill. ... The poet mentions how he lifts his feet from the pedals and keeps his hands still so that he would not lose his balance and fall off the bicycle, while it is dashing down the hill.

an impulse is a force acting over some amount of time to cause a change in momentum. on the other hand, work is a
finlep [7]

Answer:

force; distance; energy.

Explanation:

An impulse can be defined as the net force acting an object for a very short period of time.

Mathematically, impulse is given by the formula;

Impulse = force * time

An impulse is a force acting over some amount of time to cause a change in momentum. On the other hand, work is a force acting over some amount of distance to cause a change in energy.

Mathematically, work done is given by the formula;

Work done = force * distance
