The blackbody emission spectrum of object A peaks in the ultraviolet region of the electromagnetic spectrum at a wavelength of 2

00 nm. That of object B peaks in the red region, at 650 nm. Which object is hotter, and, according to Wien’s law, how many times hotter is it? According to Stefan’s law, how many times more energy per unit area does the hotter body radiate per second?

Answer:

A) Object A is 3.25 times hotter.

B) Object A radiates 111.6 times more energy per unit of area.

Explanation:

Wiens's law states that there is an inverse relationship between the wavelength in which there is a peak in the emission of a black body and its temperature, mathematically,

\lambda_{peak}= \dfrac{0.0028976}{T},

where T is the temperature in kelvins and, \lambda_{peak} is the wavelenght (in meters) where the emission is in its peak.

From here, if we solve Wien's law for the temperature we get

T=\dfrac{0.0028976}{\lambda_{peak}}.

Now, we can easily compute the temperatures.

For object A:

T_{A}=\dfrac{0.0028976}{200*10^{-9}}

T_{A}=14488K.

For object B:

T_{B}=\dfrac{0.0028976}{650*10^{-9}}

T_{B}=4458K

From this, we get that

T_{A}/T_{B}=3.25,

which means that object A is 3.25 times hotter.

Stefan's Law states that a black body emits thermal radiation with power proportional to the fourth power of its temperature.

This is

E=\sigma T^{4},

where  \sigma=5.67*10^{-8}\ Wm^{-2}K^{-4} is call the Stefan-Boltzmann constant.

From this, power can be easily compute:

E_{A}=(5.67*10^{-8}*(14488)^{4})=2.5*10^{9}W\\E_{B}=(5.67*10^{-8}*(4458)^{4})=22.4*10^{6}}W,

and we can notice that

E_{A}/E_{B}=111.6,

which means that object A radiates 111.6 time more energy per unit of area.

Astronaut A can cover 10 meters per minute walking with the heavy shovel. What does
klasskru [66]

Answer:

d) The speed of the astronaut

Explanation:

The sentence describes the speed of the astronaut. This speed value is 10meters per minute.

Now let us understand why;

  • Speed is the distance divided by time. It is a scalar quantity without regard for direction but it has magnitude.
  • The value 10meters per minute clearly shows this instance. We do not know the direction the astronaut is moving towards.
  • Velocity, like speed is the displacement of a body with time. It is a vector quantity and it shows the direction of motion.
  • For example, 10m/s due west is a velocity value because we know the direction.

Therefore, since there is no directional sense, the value indicates speed.

The velocity of the cannonball is 150 m/s,  the right option is B. 150 m/s.

The question can be solved, using Newton's second law of motion.

Note: Momentum of the cannon = momentum of the cannonball.

<h3>Formula:</h3>
  • MV = mv................. Equation 1

<h3>Where:</h3>
  • M = mass of the cannon
  • m = mass of the cannonball
  • V = velocity of the cannon
  • v = velocity of the cannonball

Make v the subject of the equation.

  • v = MV/m................ Equation 2

From the question,

<h3>Given: </h3>
  • M = 500 kg
  • V = 3 m/s
  • m = 10 kg.

Substitute these values into equation 2.

  • v = (500×3)/10
  • v = 150 m/s.

 

Hence, The velocity of the cannonball is 150 m/s,  the right option is B. 150 m/s.

Answer:

Velocity and speed both are continuously increasing.

Acceleration is constant.

Explanation:

Speed is defined as length of path covered by a body per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity that consist of magnitude only and not direction.

Velocity is defined as the displacement per unit times. Displacement is the shortest distance between the two points. It is a vector quantity and  hence has a direction in the direction of displacement along with its own magnitude.

  • Both velocity and speed have same unit of measure which is meter per second in S.I. During <em>free fall</em> in the absence of any air resistance the velocity and speed both will be having a vertical downward direction with continuously increasing magnitude. Tough we are not concerned about the direction when discussing about speed but here both are equal since the motion is linear.

Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity of a body which is a vector quantity. For speed we are concerned about instantaneous acceleration since for a short period of time it may have a specific direction.

  • During free fall the acceleration is of a body is equal to the acceleration due to gravity and constant when the height of fall is much lesser than the radius of the earth.
