Illluminance is the measurement of photo-metric power. That means, illuminance is the rate of photo-metric flux that is received by a surface per area. It is usually expressed as a unit of W/m^2. Thus, from the choices, the answer we're looking for is illuminance.

Unas niñas en el receso estaban jugando a derramar flatulencias en un frasco de forma cilíndrica, cuyo radio tenía 5" y una altu
hram777 [196]

Answer:

Los gases siempre se adaptaran al volumen del contenedor en el que estén.

Entonces, si baja la presión del gas, la temperatura se mantendrá constante, lo que implica que tiene que aumentar la temperatura, pues para un gas ideal tenemos:

P*V = n*k*T

donde si el frasco esta cerrado, tenemos que n, k y V son constantes, entonces:

P = (n*k/V)*T

P = constante*T

(Notar que si el frasco no estuviera cerrado, entonces el numero n variaría de forma incontrolable, y este problema no se podría resolver de forma sencilla)

Entonces, si la presión baja, también baja la temperatura, pero el volumen se mantendrá constante, eso es lo importante.

Como el volumen se mantiene constante, el volumen que tomara el gas va a ser igual al volumen del frasco, sabemos que el volumen de un cilindro es:

V = (pi*r^2*h)

donde:

r = radio

pi = 3.14

h = altura.

en este caso, r = 5'' = 5 in

                       h = 7 in

Entonces el volumen sera:

V = 3.14*(5in)^2*7in = 549.5 in^2

How will a wave change as it moves from a layer of higher velocity into a lower layer of lower velocity?
denis-greek [22]

Explanation:

Wave is defined as a disturbance or oscillation that travels through space-time, accompanied by a transfer of energy. Wave motion transfers energy from one point to another, often with no permanent displacement of the particles of the medium.

The velocity of wave is equal to the product of its wavelength and frequency (number of vibrations per second). Longitudinal waves like sound waves travel through a medium.

Therefore, a wave move from a layer of high velocity to that of a lower velocity the wavelength changes (that is, decreases) as it moves.

A planet orbits a start with the path shown below.
kvv77 [185]

PART a)

As we know that gravitational potential energy is given by the formula

U = -\frac{Gm_1m_2}{r}

here we can see that gravitational potential energy inversely varies with the distance

so here when distance from the sun is minimum then magnitude of gravitational potential energy is maximum while since it is given with negative sign so its overall value is minimum at that position

So gravitational potential energy is minimum at the nearest point and maximum at the farthest point

PART b)

Since we know that sum of kinetic energy and potential energy is constant here

so the points of minimum potential energy is the point where kinetic energy is maximum which means speed is maximum

So here speed is maximum at the nearest point

Part C)

since gravitational potential energy inversely varies with distance so it's graph will be like hyperbolic graph with distance

A flywheel with a diameter of 1.63 m is rotating at an angular speed of 79.9 rev/min. (a) What is the angular speed of the flywh
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

(a) 8.362 rad/sec

(b) 6.815 m/sec

(c) 9.446 rad/sec^2

(d) 396.22 revolution

Explanation:

We have given that diameter d = 1.63 m

So radius r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{1.63}{2}=0.815m

Angular speed N = 79.9 rev/min

(a) We know that angular speed in radian per sec

\omega =\frac{2\pi N}{60}=\frac{2\times 3.14\times 79.9}{60}=8.362rad/sec

(b) We know that linear speed is given by

v=r\omega =0.815\times 8.362=6.815m/sec

(c) We have given final angular velocity \omega _f=675rev/min

And \omega _i=79.9rev/min

Time t = 63 sec

Angular acceleration is given by \alpha =\frac{\omega _f-\omega _i}{t}=\frac{675-79.9}{63}=9.446rad/sec^2

(d) Change in angle is given by

\Theta =\frac{1}{2}(\omega _i+\omega _f)t=\frac{1}{2}(675+79.9)\times 1.05=396.22rev

What are tiny sacs at the end of the bronchioles filled with air called?
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

Alveoli

The bronchioles end in tiny air sacs called alveoli, where oxygen is transferred from the inhaled air to the blood.

Hope this helps :)
