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!

Why is cancer so horrible
____ [38]

Answer:

Because it kills people. I have had 6 relatives who have died from it in the past 2 years. It's horrible.

Explanation:

If you're wondering what causes cancer, it is rapid and uncontrollable cell regeneration. The majority of cancers result from random mutations arising during DNA replication in the normal stem cells required during development and tissue maintenance.

puteri [66]

When one member of a binary star system is a black hole, and astronomers detect flickering x-rays coming from the system, these x-rays usually coming from a disk of material around the black hole (material that has been pulled from the companion star and is falling toward the black hole).

A binary black hole (BBH) is a system consisting of two black holes in close orbit around each other. Like black holes themselves, binary black holes are often divided into stellar binary black holes, formed either as remnants of high-mass binary star systems or by dynamic processes and mutual capture; and binary supermassive black holes, believed to be a result of galactic mergers.

For many years, proving the existence of binary black holes was made difficult because of the nature of black holes themselves and the limited means of detection available.

However, in the event that a pair of black holes were to merge, an immense amount of energy should be given off as gravitational waves, with distinctive waveforms that can be calculated using general relativity.

Therefore, during the late 20th and early 21st century, binary black holes became of great interest scientifically as a potential source of such waves and a means by which gravitational waves could be proven to exist. Binary black hole mergers would be one of the strongest known sources of gravitational waves in the universe, and thus offer a good chance of directly detecting such waves.

As the orbiting black holes give off these waves, the orbit decays, and the orbital period decreases. This stage is called binary black hole inspiral. The black holes will merge once they are close enough. Once merged, the single hole settles down to a stable form, via a stage called ringdown, where any distortion in the shape is dissipated as more gravitational waves. In the final fraction of a second the black holes can reach extremely high velocity, and the gravitational wave amplitude reaches its peak.

An object moves in uniform circular motion at 25 m/s and takes 1.0 second to go a quarter circle. What is the radius of the circ
FromTheMoon [43]
Object Motion: 25 m/s

Circumference of Circle: 
1/4 Circumference of Circle in 1 second = 25 meters
25 meters times 4 = Circumference of Circle 
Circumference = 100 meters

Formula to Find Circumference of Circle: (work opposite)
C = 2<span>πr

100 = </span>2πr          divided
100/2π = r         simplify
50/π = r         (exact radius)

Answer:
50/π meters = r         (exact radius)
