When a beam of light is incident on a surface, it delivers energy to the surface. The intensity of the beam is defined as the en

ergy delivered per unit area per unit time.
What is the unit of intensity, expressed in SI base units?​

Answer:

Kg

Explanation:

Given that the definition of intensity is:

The intensity of the beam is defined as the energy delivered per unit area per unit time. That is,

I =( E × t)/A

Which can expressed as

I = J/m^2/s

The S.I Units of

Energy is Joule = kgm^2s^-1

Area A = m^2

Time t = s

Intensity I = kgm^2s^-1 × m^-2 × s

Intensity I = kg

The cubic metres and seconds are cancelled out

Therefore, the S.I units of intensity is kg

katovenus [111]
The transit method requires watching the light output of a star over long periods of time. A transit occurs when the planet crosses in front of its star from earths point of view. Since there is a small object (the planet) now blocking some of the star, it appears to dim a little bit for a while until the planet passes. If we are in a position where that occurs regularly (most paths of planets do not happen to be on the line of sight between earth and their star) we can deduce the period of orbit. From the amount of dimming and the period you can estimate the mass

If the thrower takes 0.90 s to complete one revolution, starting from rest, what will be the speed of the discus at release?
Marysya12 [62]
Ω₀ = the initial angular velocity (from rest)
t = 0.9 s, time for a revolution
θ = 2π rad, the angular distance traveled

Let
α =  the angular acceleration
ω =  the final angular velocity

The angular rotation obeys the equation
(1/2)*(α rad/s²)*(0.9 s)² = (2π rad)
α = 15.514 rad/s²

The final angular velocity is
ω = (15.514 rad/s²)*(0.9 s) = 13.963 rad/s

If the thrower's arm is r meters long, the tangential velocity of release will be 
v = 13.963r m/s

Answer: 13.963 rad/s

The speed of an object changes only when it is acted on by an unbalanced force.
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

If an object has a net force acting on it, it will accelerate. The object will speed up, slow down or change direction. An unbalanced force (net force) acting on an object changes its speed and/or direction of motion. An unbalanced force is an unopposed force that causes a change in motion.

Explanation:

I hope this helps you out and if your feeling generous plz mark brainliest it helps me a lot thank you:)

What is the speed of sound at the atmospheric temperature of 30°C?
12345 [234]

The parcel will undergo projectile motion, which means that it will have motion in both the horizontal and vertical direction.


First, we determine how long the parcel will fall using:


s = ut + 1/2 at²


where s will be the height, u is the initial vertical velocity of the parcel (0), t is the time of fall and a is the acceleration due to gravity.


5.5 = (0)(t) + 1/2 (9.81)(t)²

t = 1.06 seconds
