A communications satellite orbiting the earth has solar panels that completely absorb all sunlight incident upon them. The total

area A of the panels is 10m2.
1) The intensity of the sun's radiation incident upon the earth is about I = 1.4kW/m2. Suppose this is the value for the intensity of sunlight incident upon the satellite's solar panels. What is the total solar power P absorbed by the panels?
2) What is the total force F on the panels exerted by radiation pressure from the sunlight?

Answer:

0.00004666N

Explanation:

We know that

intensity (I) = P/ A

Where

P= power

A= Area

So lets say that the power absorbed

Will be = Intensity x Area

Which Is = 1.4 x 10^3 x(10)

So

14000 Watt = 14 kWatt

However we know that radiation pressure is equal to

time-averaged intensity all over the speed of light in free space

So

P = (1.4 x 1000)/c

But

F= P x A

So

((1.4 x 1000)/(3 x1 0^8)) x 10

Which is

=0.000046666N

Why does salt dissolve in water act as an antifreeze?
aalyn [17]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

An antifreeze is a substance which when added to a liquid reduces the freezing point of the liquid. Hence the solution can only freeze at a lower temperature compared to the solvent. Examples of antifreeze includes salt and propylene glycol. Antifreeze are used in low temperature environments to prevent water from freezing quicky. Hence the answer is A.

Which statement is not correct for lamps connected in parallel
ycow [4]

Answer:

This question is not complete but the completed question is below

Which statement is not correct for lamps connected in parallel?

A They can be switched on and off separately.

B They will remain bright if another lamp is connected in parallel.

C They share the supply voltage equally between them.

D They still operate if one lamp is removed.

The correct option is A

Explanation:

Lamps connected in series have the same voltage running across each lamp in the connection and will thus have the same brightness if any lamp is added or removed. This property also means they can only be switched on and off by a single switch, hence option A is not correct about lamps connected in parallel.
