Answer: (a) power output = 3.85×10²⁶W

(b). There is no relative change in power as it is independent from frequency

(c). 590 W/m²

Explanation:

given Radius between earth and sun to be = 1.50 × 10¹¹m

Intensity of the radiation from the sun measured on earth to be = 1360 W/m²

Frequency = 60 MHz

(a). surface area A of the sun on earth is = 4πR²

substituting value of R;

A = 4π(.50 × 10¹¹)² = 2.863 10²³×m²

A = 2.863 10²³×m²

now to get the power output of the sun we have;

<em>P </em>sun = <em>I </em><em>sun-earth </em><em>A </em><em>sun-earth</em>

where A = 2.863 10²³×m², and <em>I </em> is 1360 W/m²

<em>P </em>sun =  2.863 10²³ × 1360

<em>P </em>sun = 3.85×10²⁶W

(c). surface area A of the sun on mars is = 4πR²

now we substitute value of 2.28 ×10¹¹ for R sun-mars, we have

A sun-mars = 4π(2.28× 10¹¹)²

A sun-mars = 6.53 × 10²³m²

now to calculate the intensity of the sun;

<em>I </em><em>sun-mars = </em><em>P </em>sun / A sun-mars

where <em>P </em>sun = 3.85×10²⁶W and A sun-mars = 6.53 × 10²³m²

<em>I </em><em>sun-mars =  </em>3.85×10²⁶W / 6.53 × 10²³m²

<em>I </em><em>sun-mars = </em>589.6 ≈ 590 W/m²

<em>I </em><em>sun-mars = </em>590 W/m²

Tim and Rick both can run at speed Vr and walk at speed Vw, with Vr &gt; Vw.
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

Δt =  \frac{2D}{Vw+Vr} - \frac{D}{2Vr} - \frac{D}{2Vw}

Explanation:

Hi there!

Using the equation of speed for the whole trip, we can obtain the time each one needed to cover the distance D.

The speed (v) is calculated by dividing the traveled distance (d) over the time needed to cover that distance (t):

v = d/t

Rick traveled half of the distance at Vr and the other half at Vw. Then, when v = Vr, the distance traveled was D/2 and the time is unknown, Δt1:

Vr = D/ (2 · Δt1)

For the other half of the trip the expression of velocity will be:

Vw = D/(2 · Δt2)

The total time traveled is the sum of both Δt:

Δt(total) = Δt1 + Δt2

Then, solving the first equation for Δt1:

Vr = D/ (2 · Δt1)

Δt1 = D/(2 · Vr)

In the same way for the second equation:

Δt2 = D/(2 · Vw)

Δt + Δt2 = D/(2 · Vr) + D/(2 · Vw)

Δt(total) = D/2 · (1/Vr + 1/Vw)

The time needed by Rick to complete the trip was:

Δt(total) = D/2 · (1/Vr + 1/Vw)

Now let´s calculate the time it took Tim to do the trip:

Tim walks half of the time, then his speed could be expressed as follows:

Vw = 2d1/Δt  Where d1 is the traveled distance.

Solving for d1:

Vw · Δt/2 = d1

He then ran half of the time:

Vr = 2d2/Δt

Solving for d2:

Vr · Δt/2 = d2

Since d1 + d2 = D, then:

Vw · Δt/2 +  Vr · Δt/2 = D

Solving for Δt:

Δt (Vw/2 + Vr/2) = D

Δt = D / (Vw/2 + Vr/2)

Δt = D/ ((Vw + Vr)/2)

Δt = 2D / (Vw + Vr)

The time needed by Tim to complete the trip was:

Δt = 2D / (Vw + Vr)

Let´s find the diference between the time done by Tim and the one done by Rick:

Δt(tim) - Δt(rick)

2D / (Vw + Vr) - (D/2 · (1/Vr + 1/Vw))

\frac{2D}{Vw+Vr} - \frac{D}{2Vr} - \frac{D}{2Vw} = Δt

Let´s check the result. If Vr = Vw:

Δt = 2D/2Vr - D/2Vr - D/2Vr

Δt = D/Vr - D/Vr = 0

This makes sense because if both move with the same velocity all the time both will do the trip in the same time.

What is the force required to produce an acceleration of 46.4
Brilliant_brown [7]
That depends on the mass of the object, and the unit of the '46.4' .

If the '46.4' is ' meters per second² ' , then the force required is

       (mass of the object in kilograms) x (46.4)    newtons .
