Two spacecraft are both 10 million kilometers from a star. The total power output of the star is 4 x 1025 W. Spacecraft 1 has a

solar panel with a radius of 18 m. Spacecraft 2 has a solar panel with a radius of 6 m. What is the ratio of the power collected by the solar panel of Spacecraft 1 to the power collected by the solar panel of Spacecraft 2. a. 0.11 b. 0.06 c. 9 d. 18 e. 1 f. 0.33 g. 3

The concept of power is given by the relationship between intensity and area, that is to say that power is defined as

P = A*I

Our values are given under the condition of,

r_1 = 18m

r_2 = m

The power is proportional to the Area, and in turn, we know that the Area of a circle is the product between \pi  times the radius squared, therefore the power is proportional to the radius squared.

\text{Power} \propto r^2

For both panels we would have to

\frac{\text{Power by panel 1}}{\text{Power by panel 2}} = \frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}

\frac{P_1}{P_2} = (\frac{18}{6})^2

\frac{P_1}{P_2} = 9

Therefore the correct option is option C.9

Answer:

the correct answer is option (c) 9

Explanation:

solution;

Given data;

radius of spacecraft 1 = 18m

radius of spacecraft 1 = 6m

The total power output of the star = 4 x 1025 W

power is given by the formula;

P = I * A

where I is light intensity and A is the area

but power can be said to be proportional to area.

Since area = πr² therefore, power is proportional to r²

The equation becomes,

power of panel 1 /power of panel 2 = r₁²/r₂²

                                                          = 18²/6²

                                                          = 324/36

                                Ratio                     = 9

telo118 [61]

Answer:

The correct answer to the following question will be "Period".

Explanation:

The Period seems to be the time deemed necessary for such a perfect cycle of vibration to transfer a particular moment. Because as the amplitude of the wave raises, the wavelength falls.

It is denoted by "T" and its formula will be:

⇒  T  = \frac{1}{F}

Where, T = Period

            F = Frequency

The other given choices are not related to the given circumstances. So that the above would be the right answer.

When an object threw to the free space to make an angle of 25 degree at an initial speed of 15 m/sec, the ball takes time to rea
alekssr [168]

Answer:

The horizontal distance traveled by the projectile is 15.23 m.

Explanation:

Given;

angle of projection, θ = 25⁰

initial velocity of the projectile, u = 15 m/s

time of flight, t = 1.12 s

The the travelling path of the object is calculated as the range of the projectile

R = u_x t\\\\R = (15\ Cos \ 25^0) \times 1.12\\\\R = 13.595 \times 1.12\\\\R = 15.23 \ m

Therefore, the horizontal distance traveled by the projectile is 15.23 m.
