Answer:

The force of the radiation on the surface is 3.33 x 10⁻¹⁰ N

Explanation:

Given;

intensity of light, I = 1kw/m² = 1000 W/m²

area of the surface, A = 1 cm² = 1 x 10⁻⁴ m²

Since the light is completely absorbed, the force of the radiation is given by;

F = P/c

where;

c is the speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

But P = IA

F = IA /c

F = (1000 X 1 X 10⁻⁴) / 3 x 10⁸

F = 3.33 x 10⁻¹⁰ N

Therefore, the force of the radiation on the surface is 3.33 x 10⁻¹⁰ N

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

204 m

Explanation:

When the marble is dropped from a certain height, its gravitational potential energy converts into kinetic energy. So the kinetic energy gained is equal to the variation of gravitational potential energy:

\Delta U=mg\Delta h

where

m is the mass of the marble

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

\Delta h is the change in height

In this problem, we have

m = 50 g = 0.05 kg

\Delta U = 100 J

Solving the formula for \Delta h, we find the necessary height from which the marble should be dropped:

\Delta h = \frac{\Delta U}{mg}=\frac{100}{(0.05)(9.8)}=204 m

On a spaceship designed to support a multiyear voyage to the outer planets of the solar system, plants will be grown to provide
alexira [117]

Answer:

A mixture of blue & red light.

Explanation:

During photosynthesis, the oxygen delivered emanates from water particles and if a weighty isotope of oxygen atom was noticed in delivered sub-atomic oxygen, the water atoms were marked with the hefty isotope.

In order to maximize the growth rate of the plant, the required wavelength of light to be used is a mixture of blue & red light. This is on the grounds that as the absorption optima of plant's photoreceptors are at wavelength frequency of red and blue light, subsequently the combination of red and blue light would be ideal for plant growth and development.

The productivity of red (650–665 nm) LEDs on plant development is straightforward on the grounds that these wavelength frequencies entirely fit with the retention pinnacle of chlorophylls and phytochrome, while the enhanced blue light presented the possibility that development under regular light could be mirrored utilizing blue and red LEDs with negligible use of energy.

Choose two forces and compare and contrast these forces. These must be different forces than used in the prior question. Provide
marin [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are 4 forces. These are 1) Gravity, 2) Weak Nuclear Force, 3) Electromagnetism, and 4) Strong Nuclear Force. 

Order of strength from weakest to strongest: Gravity, Weak Nuclear Force, Electromagnetism, Strong Nuclear Force

Type of Range:

Gravity - Unlimited range

Weak Nuclear Force - Limited range

Electromagnetism - Infinite range

Strong Nuclear Force - Limited Range

Found in:

Gravity - Exists between all objects with mass

Weak Nuclear Force - Governs over beta decays like the emission of electron or positron

Electromagnetism - the attraction found between particles that are electrically charged

Strong Nuclear Force - Found in atoms and subatomic particles. It is responsible for holding the atoms' nucleus together.

You are looking at a yellow flower growing outside in the sunshine. Why does it look yellow?
Alchen [17]

Answer:

It looks yellow because that is the only (major) color reflected.

Visible spectra is from about 4000-7000 Angstroms (10^-10 m).

Red are longer wavelengths and blue are the shorter wavelengths.

The Sodium doublet (yellow) occurs around 5900 Angstroms.

A gun has a muzzle speed of 90 meters per second. What angle of elevation should be used to hit an object 150 meters away? Negle
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

θ₀ = 84.78° (OR) 5.22°

Explanation:

This situation can be treated as projectile motion. The parameters of this projectile motion are:

R = Range of Projectile = 150 m

V₀ = Launch Speed of Projectile = 90 m/s

g = 9.8 m/s²

θ₀ = Launch angle (OR) Angle of Elevation = ?

The formula for range of a projectile is given as:

R = V₀² Sin 2θ₀/g

Sin 2θ₀ = Rg/V₀²

Sin 2θ₀ = (150 m)(9.8 m/s²)/(90 m/s)²

2θ₀ = Sin⁻¹ (0.18)

θ₀ = 10.45°/2

<u>θ₀ = 5.22°</u>

Also, we know that for the same launch velocity the range will be same for complementary angles. Therefore, another possible value of angle is:

θ₀ = 90° - 5.22°

<u>θ₀ = 84.78°</u>
