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.

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

(a) A 15.0 kg block is released from rest at point A in the figure below. The track is frictionless except for the portion betwe
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

(a) coefficient of friction = 0.451

This was calculated by the application of energy conservation principle (the total sum of energy in a closed system is conserved)

(b) No, it comes to a stop 5.35m short of point B. This is so because the spring on expanding only does a work of 43 J on the block which is not enough to meet up the workdone of 398 J against friction.

Explanation:

The detailed step by step solution to this problems can be found in the attachment below. The solution for part (a) was divided into two: the motion of the body from point A to point B and from point B to point C. The total energy in the system is gotten from the initial gravitational potential energy. This energy becomes transformed into the work done against friction and the work done in compression the spring. A work of 398J was done in overcoming friction over a distance of 6.00m. The energy used in doing so is lost as friction is not a conservative force. This leaves only 43J of energy which compresses the spring. On expansion the spring does a work of 43J back on the block is only enough to push it over a distance of 0.65m stopping short of 5.35m from point B.

Thank you for reading and I hope this is helpful to you.
