Part 1: Use complete sentences to explain why solar winds occur. Part 2: Give two examples in which solar winds impact Earth.

Troyanec [42]

Part 1

When the solar atmosphere accumulates a lot of magnetic energy to a point that cannot accumulate more, all that magnetic energy is suddenly released, and with it, a lot of radiation. So much, that in fact it covers all of the electromagnetic spectrum; from radio waves to gamma rays. That burst of radiation is called a solar flare. In a single solar flare the amount of radiation released is millions of times greater than all the nuclear bombs in the face if the earth exploding together. Lucky for us, most of the high-energy radiation dissipates before reaching the Earth, and the radiation that do reach us, is deflected by the Earth’s magnetic field.

Part 2

1. Not all the radiation of solar flares that reach the Earth is deflected by its magnetic field; some of them reach us and charges the upper atmosphere with ionized particles. Those particles react with the gases in the atmosphere and produce a light; that light is what we call Auroras borealis or southern nights; One the most beautiful natural spectacles in earth, who thought Auroras begin their lives as deadly solar flares.

2. Solar flares contain a lot of high-energy radiation that is extremely dangerous for our electronic devices; when they reach the Earth, they can damage sensible electronics like satellites. A very powerful solar flare could even damage all the electronic devices on the surface of the Earth.

A 2. 0 μf and a 4. 0 μf capacitor are connected in series across an 8. 0-v dc source. what is the charge on the 2. 0 μf capacito

Nezavi [6.7K]

voltage across 2.0μf capacitor is 5.32v

Given:

C1=2.0μf

C2=4.0μf

since two capacitors are in series there equivalent capacitance will be

[tex] \frac{1}{c} = \frac{1}{c1} + \frac{1}{c2} [/tex]

$c = \frac{c1 \times c2}{c1 + c2}$

$= \frac{2 \times 4}{2 + 4}$

=1.33μf

As the capacitance of a capacitor is equal to the ratio of the stored charge to the potential difference across its plates, giving: C = Q/V, thus V = Q/C as Q is constant across all series connected capacitors, therefore the individual voltage drops across each capacitor is determined by its its capacitance value.

Q=CV

given,V=8v

$= 1.33 \times 10 {}^{ - 6} \times 8$

$= 10.64 \times 10 {}^{ - 6}$

charge on 2.0μf capacitor is

$\frac{Qeq}{2 \times 10 {}^{ - 6} }$

$= \frac{10.64 \times 10 {}^{ - 6} }{2 \times 10 {}^{ - 6} }$

=5.32v

A racing car travels on a circular track of radius 158 m, moving with a constant linear speed of 19.1 m/s. Find its angular spee

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

$\omega=0.12\frac{rad}{s}$

Explanation:

In a uniform circular motion, since a complete revolution represents 2π radians, the angular velocity, which is defined as the angle rotated by a unit of time, is given by:

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}(1)$
