Our Sun shines bright with a luminosity of 3.828 x 1025 Watt. Her energies
kifflom [539]

Answer:

a)   E = 1.58 10²¹ J , b) Oil = 4,236 107 liter ,  e)   T = 54.3 C

Explanation:

a) To calculate the energy that reaches Earth, let us combine that the power emitted by the Sun is distributed uniformly on a spherical surface

     I = P / A

     A = 4π r²

in this case the radius of the sphere is the distance from the Sun to Earth r = 1.5 10¹¹ m

     I = P / A

     I = P / 4π r²

let's calculate

     I = 3,828 10²⁵/4 pi (1.5 10¹¹)²

     I = 1.3539 10²W / m² = 135.4 W / m2

the energy that reaches the disk of the Earth is

    E = I A

the area of ​​a disc

    A = π r²

    E = I π r²

where r is the radius of the Earth 6.37 10⁶ m

     E = 135.4 π(6.37 10⁶)

     E = 1,726 10¹⁶ W

This is the energy per unit of time that reaches Earth

    t = 1 dai (24h / 1day) (3600s / 1h) = 86400 s

     

    E = 1,826 10¹⁶ 86400

     E = 1.58 10²¹ J

b) for this part we can use a direct proportions rule

      Oil = 1.58 10²¹ (1 / 37.3 10⁶)

      Oil = 4,236 10⁷ liter

c) to silence the surface temperature of the Earth we use the Stefan-Bolztman Law

       P = σ A e T⁴

       T = \sqrt[4]{P/Ae}

nos indicate the refect, therefore the amount of absorbencies

       P_absorbed = 0.7 P

let's calculate

       T = REA (0.7 1.58 1021 / [pi (6.37 106) 2 1)

       T = RER (8,676 106)

       T = 54.3 C

b) Among the other factors that must be taken into account is the greenhouse effect, due to the absorption of gases from the atmosphere

1. Cam Newton can sprint 40 meters in 5.79 seconds! How fast can he run?
Vesnalui [34]

This is a Physics question where we need to figure out how many meters Cam can run per second. To figure this out we divide the distance by the change in time.

40/5.79 = 6.9 meters per second approximately.

Near the top of the Citigroup Center building in New York City, there is an object with mass of 4.00 ✕ 105 kg on springs that ha
jasenka [17]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of an object, m=4\times 10^5\ kg

(a) Time period of oscillation, T = 2.4 s

The formula for the time period of spring is given by :

T=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}

Where

k is the force constant

k=\dfrac{4\pi ^2 m}{T^2}

k=\dfrac{4\pi ^2 \times 4\times 10^5}{(2.4)^2}

k=2.74\times 10^6\ N/m

(b) Displacement in the spring, x = 2.2 m

Energy stored in the spring is given by :

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

U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2.74\times 10^6\ N/m\times (2.2\ m)^2

U=6.63\times 10^6\ J

Hence, this is the required solution.

A train rolls past a stationary observer. To him, the train is moving at a speed of 23m/s west, and a woman on the train is movi
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

21.7 seconds.

Explanation:

Woman's velocity relative to train (23 m/s - 22.4 m/s) = 0.6 m/s

Distance woman wants to travel = 13m

To find how long she will take to move 13m relative to the train, take the distance she wants to travel divided by her velocity relative to the train.

(13m)/(0.6 m/s) = 21.6667 seconds or 21.7 seconds.  

Therefore, it will take the woman 21.7 seconds to move 13m.
