"The equation can be used to calculate the power absorbed by any surface" statement concerning the Stefan-Boltzmann equation is correct.
Answer: Option A
<u>Explanation:</u>
According to Stefan Boltzmann equation, the power radiated by black body radiation source is directly proportionate to the fourth power of temperature of the source. So the radiation transferred is absorbed by another surface and that absorbed power will also be equal to the fourth power of the temperature. So the equation describes the relation of net radiation loss with the change in temperature from hotter temperature to cooler temperature surface.
So this law is application for calculating power absorbed by any surface.

<span>A.) If a sideways force of 300 N is applied to the motor, how far will it move sideways?</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
The velocity of the vehicle would increase because the the tanks (when filled with water) must have exerted a force which would reduce the velocity of the vehicle at a certain pressure on the gas pedal. Note that force equals mass multiplied by acceleration; as the mass decreases, so the force decreases. Thus, when the mass exerted by this tanks (on the vehicle) decrease as a result of the hole punctured in them, the force exerted by the tanks would also decrease causing an increase in velocity of the pick up truck when the same pressure is applied on the gas pedal throughout (before and after the puncture).
The conservation law that applied here is the law of conservation of energy which states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another. This is because the energy the vehicle used in carrying the load (the tanks) was transformed to the energy that resulted in increasing it's velocity (no new energy was formed as the pressure on the gas pedal remained the same).
-- The speed of light in air is very close to 3 x 10⁸ m/s.
Whatever the actual number is, it's equivalent to roughly
7 times around the Earth in 1 second. So for this kind of
problem, you can assume that we see things at the same time
that they happen; don't bother worrying about how long it takes
for the light to reach you.
-- For sound, it's a different story. Sound in air only travels at
about 340 m/s. It takes sound almost 5 seconds to go 1 mile.
-- Now, the lightning and thunder happen at the same time.
The light travels to you at the speed of light, so you see the
lightning pretty much when it happens. But the sound of the
thunder comes poking along at 340 m/s, and arrives AFTER
the sight of the lightning.
The length of time between the sight and the sound is about
99.9999% the result of the time it takes the sound to reach you.
If the thunder arrived at you 3 seconds after the light did, then
the sound traveled
(340 m/s) x (3 s) = 1,020 meters .
(about 0.63 of a mile)
(If you're worried about ignoring the time it takes
for the light to reach you ...
It takes light 0.0000034 second to cover the same 1,020 meters,
so including it in the calculation would not change the answer.)
