Reflection: you look in the mirror.
Refraction: You put a straw in a glass of water, and it looks like it broke.
Absorption: If you have a black sweater and you wear it out in the cold, the black sweater is going to hold in heat better than a lighter sweater because the black sweater absorbs light .

a radio antenna broadcasts a 1.0 MHz radio wav e with 21 kW of power. Assume that the radiation is emitted uniformly in all dire
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

I=2.67\times 10^{-6}\ W/m

Explanation:

Given that,

Frequency of a radio antenna is 1 MHz

Power, P = 21 kW

We need to find the the waves intensity 25 km from the antenna . The object emits intenisty evenly in all direction. It can be given by :

I=\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2}\\\\I=\dfrac{21\times 10^3}{4\pi (25000)^2}\\\\I=2.67\times 10^{-6}\ W/m

So, the wave intensity 25 km from the antenna is 2.67\times 10^{-6}\ W/m.

1.48 Assume that the air volume in a small automobile tire is constant and equal to the volume between two concentric cylinders
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

a) 0.018 kg

b) 262 kPa

Explanation:

The volume of the concentric cylinders would be:

V = π/4 * h * (D^2 - d^2)

V = π/4 * 13 * (52^2 - 33^2) = 16500 cm^3 = 0.0165 m^3

The state equation of gases:

p * V = m * R * T

Rearranging:

m = (p * V) / (R * T)

R is 287 J/(kg * K) for air

25 C = 298 K

m0 = 202000 * 0.0165 / (287 * 298) = 0.039 kg

After pumping more air the volume remains about the same, but temperature and pressure change.

30 C = 303 K

m1 = 303000 * 0.0165 / (287 * 303) = 0.057 kg

The mass that was added is

m1 - m0 = 0.057 - 0.039 = 0.018 kg

If that air is cooled to 0 C

0 C  is 273 K

p = m * R * T / V

p = 0.057 * 278 * 273 / 0.0165 = 262000 Pa = 262 kPa

Initially stationary, a train has a constant acceleration of 0.8 m/s2. (a) What is its speed after 27 s? m/s (b) What is the tot
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

(a) v1 = 21.6 m/s

(b) t = 51.25 s

Explanation:

Use kinematics equation

v1 = v0 + at

Given

v0 = 0 = initial velocity

a = 0.8 m/s^2 = acceleration

(a) t = 27 seconds

v1 = v0 + at = 0 + 0.8*27 = 21.6 m/s

(b) v1 = 41 m/s

v1 = v0 + at

solve for t

t = (v1-v0)/a = (41-0)/0.8 = 51.25 s
