A python can detect thermal radiation from objects that differ in temperature from their environment as long as the received int

ensity of thermal radiation is greater than 0.60 W/m2 . Your body emits a good deal of thermal radiation. Assume that your body has a surface area of 1.6 m2 , a surface temperature of 30°C, and an emissivity e = 0.97 at infrared wavelengths. As we’ve seen, the intensity of a source of radiation decreases with the distance from the source. If you are outside on a cool, dark night, what is the maximum distance from which a python could detect your presence?

Answer:

 R = 9.92 m

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use the Stefa radiation equation

      P = σ A e T⁴

Where the Stefan-Boltzmann constant is worth 5,670 10⁻⁸ W/m²K⁴, A is the area of ​​the body and the emissivity and T is the absolute temperature

Let's calculate irradiated

     P = 5,670 10⁻⁸ 1.6 0.97 (273 +30) 4

     P = 7.417 10² W

The emitted power is distributed on a spherical surface as it progresses, whereby the intensity detected by the python I = 0.6 W / m2

        P = I A

The area of ​​the sphere is

        A = 4π R²

       

        P = I 4π R²

        R² = P / 4π I

        R = √ [7.417 102 / (4π 0.6)]

        R = √ 98.37

        R = 9.92 m

A point charge q1 = 1.0 µC is at the origin and a point charge q2 = 6.0 µC is on the x axis at x = 1 m.
iris [78.8K]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the Electrostatic Force given by Coulomb's law. This force can be mathematically described as

F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{d^2}

Here

k = Coulomb's Constant

q_{1,2} = Charge of each object

d = Distance

Our values are given as,

q_1 = 1 \mu C

q_2 = 6 \mu C

d = 1 m

k =  9*10^9 Nm^2/C^2

a) The electric force on charge q_2 is

F_{12} = \frac{ (9*10^9 Nm^2/C^2)(1*10^{-6} C)(6*10^{-6} C)}{(1 m)^2}

F_{12} = 54 mN

Force is positive i.e. repulsive

b) As the force exerted on q_2 will be equal to that act on q_1,

F_{21} = F_{12}

F_{21} = 54 mN

Force is positive i.e. repulsive

c) If q_2 = -6 \mu C, a negative sign will be introduced into the expression above i.e.

F_{12} = \frac{(9*10^9 Nm^2/C^2)(1*10^{-6} C)(-6*10^{-6} C)}{(1 m)^{2}}

F_{12} = F_{21} = -54 mN

Force is negative i.e. attractive

A capacitor with a capacitance of 50µf when connected to a battery of 400 V. The charge and energy stored on it is? a. 0.05 C an
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

c. 0.02 C and 4 J

Explanation:

Applying,

Q = CV................ Equation 1

Where Q = Charge, C = Capacitance of the capacitor, V = Voltage.

From the question,

Given: C = 50 μF = 50×10⁻⁶ F, V = 400 V

Substitute these values into equation 1

Q = (50×10⁻⁶)(400)

Q = 0.02 C.

Also Applying

E = CV²/2............. Equation 2

Where E = Energy stored.

Therefore,

E = (50×10⁻⁶ )(400²)/2

E = 4 J

Hence the right option is c. 0.02 C and 4 J
