Answer:

The answer is 2.7x10⁻⁸ Pa

Explanation:

The expression for total absorption is:

Pr = I/c

Where I = intensity of light

c = velocity of light

Replacing:

Pr = 8.1/3x10⁸ = 2.7x10⁻⁸ Pa

Answer:

2.7x10⁻⁸ N/m²

Explanation:

Since the piece of cardboard absorbs totally the light, the radiation pressure can be found using the following equation:

p_{rad} = \frac{I}{c}

<u>Where:</u>

p_{rad}: is the radiation pressure

I: is the intensity of the light = 8.1 W/m²

c: is the speed of light = 3.00x10⁸ m/s

Hence, the radiation pressure is:

p_{rad} = \frac{I}{c} = \frac{8.1 W/m^{2}}{3.00 \cdot 10^{8} m/s} = 2.7 \cdot 10^{-8} N/m^{2}

Therefore, the radiation pressure that is produced on the cardboard by the light is 2.7x10⁻⁸ N/m².

I hope it helps you!

A sled of mass m is being pulled horizontally by a constant horizontal force of magnitude F. The coefficient of kinetic friction
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

The average velocity of the sled is vavg = s/t.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The average velocity is calculated as the traveled distance over time:

vavg = Δx/Δt

Where:

vavg = average velocity.

Δx = traveled distance.

Δt = elapsed time.

We already know the traveled distance (s) and also know the time it takes the sled to travel that distance (t). Then, the average velocity can be calculated as follows:

vavg = s/t

Have a nice day!

A bicyclist starts at point P and travels around a triangular path that takes her through points Q and R before returning to the
REY [17]

Answer:

Displacement by cyclist is zero.

Explanation:

In the given question bicyclist is travelling in a rectangular track having P , Q and R edges.

The bicyclist starts from P and travel through Q and R and returned to P again.

We need to find its displacement.

We know displacement  of a body is its difference between its initial position to final position.

Here in the given question the bicyclist returns to P again.

Therefore, total displacement by bicyclist is zero.

Hence, this is the required solution.

What pressure is exerted on the bottom of a 0.500-m-wide by 0.900-m-long water tank that can hold 50.0 kg of water by the weight
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

1088.9N/m2

Explanation:

Calculation for What pressure is exerted

First step is to find the area of bottom of the tank using formula

Area=Width*breadth

Let plug in the formula

Area=0.5*0.9

Area=0.45m2

Now let calculate what pressure is exerted using this formula

Pressure=Force/Area

Where,

Force=Mass *Gasoline

Area=Width of the tank* Length of the tank

Let plug in the formula

Pressure=50*9.8/0.5*0.9

Pressure=490/0.45

Pressure=1088.9N/m2

Therefore What pressure is exerted is 1088.9N/m2

What is the weight of a 15kg dog on earth?
Mariulka [41]
In physics the standard unit of weight is Newton, and the standard unit of mass is the kilogram. On Earth, a 1 kg object weighs 9.8 N, so to find the weight of an object in N simply multiply the mass by 9.8 N. Or, to find the mass in kg, divide the weight by 9.8 N.
