"The equation can be used to calculate the power absorbed by any surface" statement concerning the Stefan-Boltzmann equation is correct.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to Stefan Boltzmann equation, the power radiated by black body radiation source is directly proportionate to the fourth power of temperature of the source. So the radiation transferred is absorbed by another surface and that absorbed power will also be equal to the fourth power of the temperature. So the equation describes the relation of net radiation loss with the change in temperature from hotter temperature to cooler temperature surface.  

                            P=e \sigma A\left(T^{4}-T_{c}^{4}\right)

So this law is application for calculating power absorbed by any surface.

Which of these processes in the water cycle occur at a very high rate, to cause a hurricane?
Pavel [41]
Answer: d. evaporation and condensation

Water vapor is known as the main fuel that moves the hurricane. The evaporation will cause the water vapor to move upward carrying the latent heat of condensation. The vapor will cause condensation later. If both happen at a very high rate, the wind produced can become a hurricane.

A missile is moving 1350 m/s at a 25.0° angle. It needs to hit a target 23,500 m away in a 55.0° direction in 10.20 s. What is d
QveST [7]

Answer:

  The target's velocity is about 1320 m/s in the direction 265.7°.

Explanation:

In order for there to be a collision between missile and target, we must have ...

  (target starting position) + (target movement) = (missile movement)

assuming the missile starts from the origin of all measurements. The missile moves 10.2 seconds before impact, so moves a distance of ...

  (10.2 s)(1350 m/s) = 13,770 m

__

We are interested in the target movement, so we can solve for that:

  (target movement) = (missile movement) - (target starting position)

In terms of meters, this is ...

  (target movement) = 13770∠25° - 23500∠55° ≈ 13467.74∠-94.3°

The target covers this distance in the same 10.2 seconds before collision, so its speed is (13467.74 m)/(10.2 s) ≈ 1320.4 m/s.

As a positive angle, the target's direction is ...

  -94.3° +360° = 265.7°

The direction of the target's velocity is 265.7°.

_____

If you're calculating this by hand, there are a couple of ways you can do it. You can convert to rectangular coordinates and back (perhaps least confusing), or you can use the law of cosines to solve the triangle, then translate angles back to the x-y coordinate plane.

Using rectangular coordinates, we have ...

  13770∠25° = 13770(cos(25°), sin(25°)) ≈ (12479.9, 5819.45)

  23500∠55° = 23500(cos(55°), sin(55°)) ≈ (13479.0, 19250.1)

Then the difference is ...

  (12479.9, 5819.45) -(13479.0, 19250.1) ≈ (-999.188, -13430.6)

and the (3rd-quadrant) angle is ...

  target direction = arctan(-13430.6/-999.188) ≈ -94.3° = 265.7°

__

The target's speed is found by dividing the distance it covers by the time it takes.

  √(13430.6² +999.188²)/10.2 ≈ 1320.36 . . . m/s

A cylindrical Nickel rod (9 mm diameter, 50 m long) is pulled in tension with a load of 6,283 N. What would the elongation of th
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

0.29 m

Explanation:

9 mm = 0.009 m in diameter

Cross-sectional area A = \pi d^2/4 = \pi * 0.009^2/4 = 6.36\times 10^{-5} m^2

Let the tensile modulus of Nickel E = 170 \times 10^9Pa.

The elongation of the rod can be calculated using the following formula:

\Delta L = \frac{F L}{A E} = \frac{6283*50}{6.36\times 10^{-5} * 170 \times 10^9} = \frac{314150}{1081200} = 0.29 m

If you were thinking about a washing machine as a system which of the following represents the inputs?
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

The answer is a, the dirty cloths, water and detergent.

Explanation:

The answer is the above selected because the inputs basically represent the data that are passed through the system to generate the output.

In this case, the inputs are the aforementioned in the answer while the possible output would literally be the clean cloths.
