How much brighter is a Sun-like star than the reflected light from a planet orbiting around it?
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

E) a billion times brighter

Explanation:

  • <u>The sun is a star, which is about billion times brighter as the reflected light from any planet orbiting around it. </u>
  • The brightness is based on its composition and its position from the planet. The sun happens to be the brightest star on the Earth's sky which is about 13 billion times brighter than the next brightest star.

Doubling the distance between you and a source of radiation decreases your exposure by:
Elan Coil [88]

Given what we know, we can confirm that doubling the distance between you and a source of radiation decreases your exposure by 75%.

<h3>How is distance related to radiation exposure?</h3>
  • As expected, increasing the distance from the source of the radiation will reduce its negative effects.
  • Counter-intuitively however, doubling the distance does not reduce by half, but rather reduces its effects by 3/4th.
  • This is due to the fact that the radiation effects from the source are inversely proportional to the square of the distance.
  • This causes the changes to be far greater than expected.

Therefore, given that the radiation is proportional to the square of the distance, instead of being of a more direct relation, we can confirm that when doubling the distance between yourself and the source of the radiation, you can reduce its effects by 3/4 or 75%.

A brick lands 10.1 m from the base of a building. If it was given an initial velocity of 8.6 m/s [61º above the horizontal], how
Montano1993 [528]
<h2>Answer: 10.52m</h2><h2 />

First, we have to establish the <u>reference system</u>. Let's assume that the building is on the negative y-axis and that the brick was thrown at the origin (see figure attached).

According to this, the initial velocity V_{o} has two components, because the brick was thrown at an angle \alpha=61\º:

V_{ox}=V_{o}cos\alpha   (1)

V_{ox}=8.6\frac{m}{s}cos(61\º)=4.169\frac{m}{s}  (2)

V_{oy}=V_{o}sin\alpha   (3)

V_{oy}=8.6\frac{m}{s}sin(61\º)=7.521\frac{m}{s}   (4)

As this is a projectile motion, we have two principal equations related:

<h2>In the x-axis: </h2>

X=V_{ox}.t  (5)

Where:

X=10.1m is the distance where the brick landed

t is the time in seconds

If we already know X and V_{ox}, we have to find the time (we will need it for the following equation):

t= \frac{X}{ V_{ox}}  (6)

t=2.42s  (7)

<h2>In the y-axis: </h2>

-y=V_{oy}.t+\frac{1}{2}g.t^{2}   (8)

Where:

y is the height of the building (<u>in this case it has a negative sign because of the reference system we chose)</u>

g=-9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}} is the acceleration due gravity

Substituting the known values, including the time we found on equation (7) in equation (8), we will find the height of the building:

-y=(7.521\frac{m}{s})(2.42s)+\frac{1}{2}(-9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}).(2.42s)^{2}   (9)

-y=-10.52m   (10)

Multiplying by -1 each side of the equation:

y=10.52m >>>>This is the height of the building

The total mass of the train and its passengers is 750000kg. The train is traveling at a speed of 84m/s. The driver applies the b
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

|F| = 393750  N

Explanation:

Given that,

Total mass of the train, m = 750000 kg

Initial speed, u = 84 m/s

Final speed, v = 42 m/s

Time, t = 80 s

We need to find the net force acting on the train. The formula for force is given by :

F = ma

F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\F=\dfrac{750000\times (42-84)}{80}\\\\F=-393750\ N

So, the magnitude of net force is 393750  N.
