Assume (unrealistically) that a TV station acts as a point source broadcasting isotropically at 3.2 MW. What is the intensity of
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

I=1.5\times10^{-28}W/m^2

Explanation:

The intensity is related to the power and surface area by I=\frac{P}{A}=\frac{P}{4\pi r^2}. We need to calculate the surface area of a sphere of radius r=4.3ly.

Since 4.3ly is the distance light travels in 4.3 years at 299792458m/s, we can obtain it in meters by doing:

r=vt=(299792458m/s)(4.3\times365\times24\times60\times60s)=4.1\times10^{16}m

So we have:

I=\frac{P}{4\pi r^2}=\frac{3.2\times10^6W}{4\pi (4.1\times10^{16}m)^2}=1.5\times10^{-28}W/m^2

2. A person began running due east and covered 15 kilometers in 2.0 hours. What is the average velocity of the person?
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

7.5 km/h (2.1 m/s) due east

Explanation:

The average velocity of the person is given by:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

d is the displacement

t is the time taken

In this problem,

d = 15 km is the displacement

t = 2.0 h is the time elapsed

so the average velocity is

v=\frac{15 km}{2.0 h}=7.5 km/h

and the direction is the same as the displacement (east).

We can also convert the velocity into SI units (m/s). We have:

d = 15 km = 15,000 m

t = 2.0 h * 3600 s/h = 7200 s

v=\frac{15,000 m}{7200 s}=2.1 m/s

The magnetosphere of Jupiter is
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

d. a large region outside Jupiter occupied by its magnetic field and filled with high-energy charged particles.  

Explanation:

A magnetic field is generated by the movement of a charged particle in the space around it. For the case of Jupiter its magnetic field is created by the liquid metallic hydrogen in its core.

So the magnetosphere is just the magnetic field around a planet, which interacts with high-energy charged particles (for example: Cosmic Rays).

Magnetospheres protect planets from the extreme radiation coming from stars or another interstellar source.
