Light with an intensity of 1 kW/m2 falls normally on a surface and is completely absorbed. The radiation pressure is
1 answer:
Answer:
The radiation pressure of the light is 3.33 x 10⁻⁶ Pa.
Explanation:
Given;
intensity of light, I = 1 kW/m²
The radiation pressure of light is given as;
I kW = 1000 J/s
The energy flux density = 1000 J/m².s
The speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
Thus, the radiation pressure of the light is calculated as;
Therefore, the radiation pressure of the light is 3.33 x 10⁻⁶ Pa.

Explanation:
The question is one that examine the physical fundamental of mechanics of a cylindrical vessel .
We would use the Euler' equation and some coriolis and centripetal force formula.
The fig below explains it.
Answer:
Explanation:
a)Magnitude =
84=
x= +50.67 or -50.67 units
b) We are given that the resultant is entirely in the -ve x direction which means that the y-component of the resultant is 0; It means that the y-component of the next vector = -ve of the y component of the initial vector i.e 67.
To make the magnitude 80 units in the negative x direction where the y component is 0, the x component must be -130.67(-50.67 - 80) as the x component is + 50.67units.
Magnitude = = 146.85 units
c) The direction vector = 67/146.85 i - 130.67/146.85 j where i corresponds to the vector in y direction and j corresponds to the vector in x direction. Or this vector is at an angle of 180 - i.e 152.85 degrees from the +ve x-axis.
