Answer:

T=1.384×10⁶seconds

Explanation:

Given data

p (Intensity)=1.30 kw/m²

E (Energy)=1.8×10⁹ J

A (Area)=1.00 m²

T (Time required)=?

Solution

E=PT   ................eq(i)

where E is energy

P is radiation power

T is time

Radiating Power is given as

P=pA

Where p is intensity

A is Area

Put P=pA in eq(i) we get

E=pAT

T=E/pA

T=\frac{(1.8*10^{9}}{(1.30*10^{3} )*(1.00)}  )\\T=1.38*10^{6} seconds

If the accuracy in measuring the position of a particle increases, what happens to the accuracy in measuring its velocity? - The
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

- The accuracy in measuring its velocity decreases.

Explanation:

This can be explained by Heisenberg's uncertainty principle which states that the position and velocity of a particle can be determined together exactly in reality.

This principle, unlike Newtonian mechanics deal with particles at microscopic level like that of an electron where if the accuracy in measurement of particle's position increases there will be  decreased accuracy in measurement of velocity of that particle.

There will be an uncertainty in accuracy in the measurement of particle's position and its velocity.

Indicate whether the statement is true or false. A force can be simply defined as a push or a pull.
Sidana [21]
This B: False, because the definition is lacking.  

Force is when two objects interact with one another causing it to either move or not move. In our daily lives there are a lot of times force is exerted upon us, rather force is everywhere and here are the evidences:  

*Pushing a cart
*Pushing a wall
*Hitting a baseball bat
*Apple falling down from a tree.
*Balls hitting one another
*A swinging pendulum
*Throwing a paper with stone above it
*Breaking of glass in the floor
*Falling of leaves on the grass <span> </span>

Using what you know about air pressure and the water cycle, explain how hurricanes form. Why are there certain places on Earth m
Yuki888 [10]
Hurricanes form when hot air and cold air start colliding above water and they start to form a tornado but there is water in the tornado. Certain places on earth are more susceptible to hurricanes because they are closer to the coastlines. For example, in Iowa, and Illinois, they have a lower chance of a hurricane, while Florida, and Washington have a higher rate because they are along the ocean. Hope this helps.

How is energy harnessed to do useful work?
baherus [9]

Answer:

But there are ways to harness kinetic energy to either generate useful mechanical work or electricity. This is what many have tried to do to make use of energy that would be otherwise wasted. One way to harness kinetic energy that has popped up many times in recent years has to do with roads and speed bumps
