Answer:

Intensity of the transmitted radio wave is 5.406 x 10⁻⁶ W/m²

Explanation:

Given;

power of radio transmitter, P = 63.2 kW = 63200 W

distance of transmission, r = 30.5 km

Intensity of the transmitted radio wave is calculated as follows;

I = \frac{P}{4\pi r^2}

where;

I is the intensity of the transmitted radio wave

Substitute the given values and calculate the intensity of the transmitted radio wave;

I = \frac{P}{4\pi r^2} = \frac{63200}{4\pi (30500)^2} = 5.406 *10^{-6} \ W/m^2

Therefore, Intensity of the transmitted radio wave is 5.406 x 10⁻⁶ W/m²

You place the spring vertically with one end on the floor. You then lay a 1.60 kg book on top of the spring and release the book
malfutka [58]

Answer:

Compression in the spring, x = 3.7 cm

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the book, m = 1.6 kg

It can be assumed the spring constant of the spring is, k = 840 N/m

As the book moves down, the change in potential energy of the book is converted to spring potential energy of compression. The mathematical expression is as follows :

\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2=mgx

x=\dfrac{2mg}{k}

x=\dfrac{2\times 1.6\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2}{840\ N/m}  

x = 0.037 meters

or

x = 3.7 cm

So, the spring is compressed to a distance of 3.7 cm. Hence, this is the required solution.

What is the internal energy of 2.00 mol of diatomic hydrogen gas (H2) at 35°C?
djyliett [7]
As you mentioned, we will use <span>Equipartition Theorem.
</span><span>H2 has 5 degrees of freedom; 3 translations and 2 rotation
</span>Therefore:
Internal energy = (5/2) nRT
You just substitute in the equation with the values of R and T and calculate the internal energy as follows:
Internal energy = (5/2) x 2 x <span>8.314 x 308 = 32.0089 x 10^3 J</span>

Wo siblings are arguing over what way to pull a 10 kg wagon. Boris wants to pull it to the right. Boris puts 220 N of force on t
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

a) Then net force acting on the wagon  30 [N] in a negative direction to the left

b)Acceleration of the wagon 3 m/s² in a negative direction to the left

Explanation:

The coordinates x and y show the positive direction in x-axis ( to the right) and negative direction to the left. In north-south direction positive y values are to the north and negative values to the south

The free-body diagram shows 4 forces acting

In y-axis:

The weight ( P = m*g =  10 [kg]*9,8 [m/s²] = 98 [N] negative

Normal reaction force  Fn = P = 98 [N]  positive ( surface is frictionless)

∑Fy = 0     P - Fn = 0     P = Fn  = 98 [N]

In x-axis:

Boris pulling force to the right (positive ) 220 [N]

Natasha pulling force to the left ( negative) 250 [N]

∑Fx = m*a

220 [N] - 250 [N]  = 10 Kg * a                      [N] = Kg * m /s²

-30 [kg*m/s²]  = 10 * Kg * a

-30/10  =  - 3  m/s²  = a

Sign (-) means the direction of acceleration vector is to the left (the same direction of the movement )

Then net force acting on the wagon  30 [N] in negative direction to the left

Acceleration of the wagon 3 m/s² in negative direction to the left
