The intensity of sunlight falling on the earth is about 1.4 kw/m2 (before any gets absorbed by our atmosphere). at what rate doe
xxTIMURxx [149]
The area of the Earth (Ae) that is irradiated by is given by:

Ae = 4πRe^2, where Re = Distance from Sun to Earth
Substituting;
Ae = 4π*(1.5*10^8*1000)^2 = 2.827*10^23 m^2

On the Earth, insolation (We) = Psun/Ae

Therefore,
Psun (Rate at which sun emits energy) = We*Ae = 1.4*2.827*10^23 = 3.958*10^23 kW = 3.958*10^26 W

The diameter of a copper atom is approximately 2.28e-10 m. The massof one mole of copper is 64 grams. Assume that the atoms area
KIM [24]

1) Mass of one copper atom: 1.063\cdot 10^{-22} kg

2) There are 9.33\cdot 10^{24} atoms in the cube

3) Mass of the cubical block: 992 kg

Explanation:

1)

We are told here that the mass of one mole of copper is

M=64 g

for

n=1 mol (number of moles)

We also know that the number of atoms inside 1 mole of substance is equal to Avogadro number:

N_A = 6.022\cdot 10^{23}

This means that N_A atoms of copper have a mass of M = 64 g. Therefore, we can find the mass of one copper atom by dividing the total mass by the avogadro number:

m=\frac{M}{N_A}=\frac{64}{6.022\cdot 10^{23}}=1.063\cdot 10^{-22} kg

2)

We are told that the diameter of a copper atom is

d=2.28\cdot 10^{-10} m

We can assume that the atoms are arranged in a cube, and that they are all attached to each other; so the side of the cube can be written as size of one atom multiplied by the number of atom per side:

L=Nd

where

N is the number of atoms (rows) in one side of the cube

Since the side of the cube is

L = 4.8 cm = 0.048 m

We find N:

N=\frac{L}{d}=\frac{0.048}{2.28\cdot 10^{-10}}=2.11\cdot 10^8

This is the number of atom rows per side; therefore, the total number of atoms in the cube is

N^3=(2.11\cdot 10^8)^3=9.33\cdot 10^{24}

3)

The total mass of the cubical block of copper will be given by the mass of one atom of copper multiplied by the total number of atoms, so:

M= N^3 m

where:

N^3 = 9.33\cdot 10^{24} is the number of atoms in the cube

m=1.063\cdot 10^{-22} kg is the mass of one atom

Therefore, substituting, we find:

M=(9.33\cdot 10^{24})(1.063\cdot 10^{-22})=992 kg

So, the mass of the cubical block is 992 kg.

S Five particles with equal negative charges -q are placed symmetrically around a circle of radius R. Calculate the electric pot
Scrat [10]

The four distinct charges' combined potentials make up the potential in the square's center. The amount of the charge and the distance from the charge both affect the potential caused by a point charge.

Therefore, the center's total potential is V=4V1=ks4 q.

<h3>What is a charge?</h3>

Due to the physical characteristic of electric charge, charged material experiences a force when it is exposed to an electromagnetic field. An object that has no net charge is said to be neutral. Classical electrodynamics is the name given to an earlier theory of the interactions of charged particles.

You can have positive or negative electric charges (commonly carried by protons and electrons respectively). opposing charges attract one another whereas similar charges repel one another.
