How does solar altitude affect the length of the path of solar radiation through earth’s atmosphere?

Aleks [24]

The angle of the Sun above the horizon, which is the solar altitude, influences the intensity ofsolar radiation received at Earth’s surface. At the place on Earth where the Sun is directlyoverhead, the local solar altitude has its maximum value of 90 degrees and solar rays are mostconcentrated. Whenever the Sun is positioned lower in the sky, solar radiation spreads over alarger area of Earth’s horizontal surface and thus is less intense. Solar radiation reaches theplanet essentially as parallel beams of uniform intensity. The nearly spherical Earth presents acurved surface to incoming solar radiation so that the noon solar altitude always varies withlatitude. The intensity of solar radiation actually striking Earth’s atmosphere is greatest at thelatitude where the noon Sun is in the zenith and decreases with distance north and south of thatlatitude. Decreasing solar altitude lengthens the path of the Sun’s rays through the atmosphere.As the path lengthens, the greater interaction of solar radiation with clouds, gases and aerosols<span>reduces its intensity</span>

A goose with a mass of 2.0 kg strikes a commercial airliner with a mass of 160,000 kg head-on. Before the collision, the goose w

Goryan [66]

Answer:

The change in momentum of the goose during this interaction is 33.334 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of goose, m₁ = 2.0 kg

mass of commercial airliner, m₂ = 160,000 kg

initial velocity of the bird, u₁ = 60 km/hr = 16.667 m/s

initial velocity of the airliner, u₂ = 870 km/hr = 241.667 m/s

Change in momentum is given as;

ΔP = mv - mu

where;

u is the initial velocity of the bird

v is the final velocity of the bird

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum;

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)

where;

v is the final velocity of bird and airliner after collision;

(2 x 16.667) + (160,000 x 241.667) = v (2 + 160,000)

38,666,753.334 = 160,002v

v = 38,666,753.334 / 160,002

v = 241.664 m/s

Thus, the final velocity of the bird is negligible compared to final velocity of the airliner.

ΔP = mv - mu

ΔP = m(v - u)

ΔP = 2(0 - 16.667)

ΔP = -33.334 m/s

The negative sign implies a deceleration of the bird after the impact.

Therefore, the change in momentum of the goose during this interaction is 33.334 m/s

The principle of work states that the ratio of work output to work input is always

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

work output is always less than work input - the ratio is less than 1.

Explanation:

This principle comes from the fact that a machine or system cannot produce more work than is supplied to it, because this would violate the energy conservation law (work is a type of mechanical energy).

In theoretical machines called "ideal machines" the input work is the same as the output work, but these machines are only theoretical because in real applications there is always some type of energy loss, either in heat produced by a machine or processes for its operation, for this reason the output work is always less than the input work.

Regarding the ratio work output to work input:

$\frac{WO}{WI} < 1$

because work input WI is always greater than work output WO.
