Light of intensity 2.00 W/m2 passes through the pupil of one of your eyes and eventually falls on your retina. The radius of the

pupil is controlled by the iris. In a human eye, the radius of the pupil can vary from about 1.0 mm to about 3.5 mm. The area of the opening can be calculated from pi (3.1416) times the radius squared. If your pupil is open to a radius of 2.5 mm, how much light energy passes through in one minute

Answer:

Explanation:

Intensity of light, I = 2 W/m²

radius of pupil open, r = 2.5 mm = 2.5 x 10^-3 m

time, t = 1 min = 60 second

Energy passes, E = intensity x area x time

E = 2 x 3.14 x 2.5 x 2.5 x 10^-6 x 60

E = 2.36 x 10^-3 Joule

At Hoover Dam, the distance the water effectively falls before encountering the electric generators depends on the water levels
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

recall that power is energy carried out or work done per time

P=W/t

P=2*10^6*35

t=6*60=420S

W=Energy

E=2*10^6*35*360S

E=25200000000

Energy stored by water from rest is called potential energy. Since the water is falling from a height , we calculate potential energy as thus

E=M*g*h

Assume that the water intakes are effectively 175 m above the electric generators. How much water must pass through the generators to power 2 million 35-W Las Vegas light bulbs for 6.0 minutes?

M=mass of water

g=acceleration due to gravity 9.81m/s^2

h=height ,175m

25200000000=M*9.81*175

M=\frac{25200000000}{175*9.81}

M=1716.75kg

A cyclist is travelling eastwards at a velocity
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

0.02 m/s^2

Explanation:

change in velocity= 4.5m/s - 2.3m/s = 2.2 m/s

acceleration= change in velocity/change in time

acceleration= 2.2/120= 0.0183

= 0.02 (to 2 significant figures)

1. A SUV along with 5 passengers has a mass of 3500 kg. It has a driving force of 2500 N directed along west on a perfectly hori
Dovator [93]

Answer:

The net acceleration of the SUV is 0.429 meters per square second due west.

Explanation:

Statement is incomplete. Description is presented below:

<em>A SUV along with 5 passengers has a mass of 3500 kg. It has a driving force of 2500 N directed along west on a perfectly horizontal road. The surface of the road exerts a resistance force of 500 N due east. At the same time a high wind is blowing a force of 500 N due east in the opposite direction of the car's drive force. Does the car has any acceleration? If yes, then what are the magnitude and direction of the car's acceleration?</em>

According to Newton's Laws of Motion, the SUV will accelerate if and only if net acceleration is different of zero. Let suppose as positive the direction of driving force (F), measured in newtons:

\Sigma F = F - R -f = F_{net} (1)

Where:

R - Resistance force, measured in newtons.

f - Wind force, measured in newtons.

F_{net} - SUV net force, measured in newtons.

If we know that F = 2500\,N, R = 500\,N and f = 500\,N, then net force experimented by the SUV is:

F_{net} = 2500\,N-500\,N-500\,N

F_{net} = 1500\,N

The car has acceleration.

By definition of force for systems with constant mass, we calculate the acceleration of the vehicle below:

a_{net} = \frac{F_{net}}{m} (2)

Where m is the mass of the SUV, measured in kilograms.

If we know that F_{net} = 1500\,N and m = 3500\,kg, then the net acceleration of the car is:

a_{net} = \frac{1500\,N}{3500\,kg}

a_{net} = 0.429\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}

The net acceleration of the SUV is 0.429 meters per square second due west.
