The radiation per unit area from the Sun reaching the earth is 1400 W/m2 , approximately the amount of radiative power per unit

area reaching a sun bather on the banks of Barton Springs at noon on a clear day in June. The temperature of the Sun is 5800 K. Now suppose instead of the present Sun we received radiation from sun X at temperature 2864 K, located at the same position as our Sun. How much radiative power per unit area would reach the sun bather from the new sun X?

Answer:

83.2 W/m^2

Explanation:

The radiation per unit area of a star is directly proportional to the power emitted, which is given by Stefan-Boltzmann law:

P=\sigma A T^4

where

\sigma is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant

A is the surface area

T is the surface temperature

So, we see that the radiation per unit area is proportional to the fourth power of the temperature:

I \propto T^4

So in our problem we can write:

I_1 : T_1^4 = I_2 : T_2^4

where

I_1 = 1400 W/m^2 is the power per unit area of the present sun

T_1 = 5800 K is the temperature of the sun

I_2 is the power per unit area of sun X

T_2 = 2864 K is the temperature of sun X

Solving for I2, we find

I_2 = \frac{I_1 T_2^4}{T_1^4}=\frac{(1400 W/m^2)(2864 K)^4}{(5800 K)^4}=83.2 W/m^2

An airplane accelerates from a velocity of 22 m/s to 40 m/s with an acceleration of 2 m/s2. How long does it
andrey2020 [161]

The time it takes the plane to change its velocity is 9s.

<h3>What is time?</h3>

Time can be defined the measured or measurable period during which an action, process, or condition exists or continues.

To calculate the time it takes the airplane to change its velocity, we use the formula below.

Formula:

  • t = (v-u)/a.......... Equation 1

Where:

  • a = Acceleration
  • v = Final velocity
  • u = Initial velocity
  • t = time

From the question,

  • v = 40 m/s
  • u = 22 m/s
  • a = 2 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation  1

  • t = (40-22)/2
  • t = 18/2
  • t = 9s

Hence, the time it takes the plane to change its velocity is 9s.

A vertical spring has a mass hanging from it, which is displaced from the equilibrium position and begins to oscillate. At what
Orlov [11]

Answer:

the object has least potential energy at mean position of the SHM

Explanation:

If a block is connected with a spring and there is no resistive force on the system

In this case the total energy of the system is always conserved and it will change from one form to another form

So here we will say that

Kinetic energy + Potential energy = Total Mechanical energy

As we can say that total energy is conserved so here we have least potential energy when the system has maximum kinetic energy

So here we also know that at mean position of the SHM the system has maximum speed and hence maximum kinetic energy.

So the object has least potential energy at mean position of the SHM
