200 kW of solar radiation is shining on a 300 m^2 parking lot. What is the insulation on the parking lot?

ale4655 [162]

That's "insolation" ... not "insulation".

'Insolation' is simply the intensity of solar radiation over some area.

If 200 kW of radiation is shining on 300 m² of area, then the insolation is

(200 kW) / (300 m²) = (666 and 2/3) watt/m² .

Note that this is the intensity of the incident radiation. It doesn't say anything
about how much soaks in or how much bounces off.

Wait !
I just looked back at the choices, and realized that I didn't answer the question
at all. I have no idea what "1 sun" means. Forgive me. I have stolen your
points, and I am filled with remorse.

Wait again !
I found it, through literally several seconds of online research.

1 sun = 1 kW/m².

So 2/3 of a kW per m² = 2/3 of 1 sun

That's between 0.5 sun and 1.0 sun.

I feel better now, and plus, I learned something.

A charge of 25 nC is uniformly distributed along a straight rod of length 3.0 m that is bent into a circular arc with a radius o

Greeley [361]

Answer:

E = 31.329 N/C.

Explanation:

The differential electric field $dE$ at the center of curvature of the arc is

$dE = k\dfrac{dQ}{r^2}cos(\theta )$ (we have a cosine because vertical components cancel, leaving only horizontal cosine components of E. )

where $r$ is the radius of curvature.

Now

$dQ = \lambda rd\theta$ ,

where $\lambda$ is the charge per unit length, and it has the value

$\lambda = \dfrac{25*10^{-9}C}{3.0m} = 8.3*10^{-9}C/m.$

Thus, the electric field at the center of the curvature of the arc is:

$E = \int_{\theta_1}^{\theta_2} k\dfrac{\lambda rd\theta }{r^2} cos(\theta)$

$E = \dfrac{\lambda k}{r} \int_{\theta_1}^{\theta_2}cos(\theta) d\theta.$

Now, we find $\theta_1$ and $\theta_2$ . To do this we ask ourselves what fraction is the arc length 3.0 of the circumference of the circle:

$fraction = \dfrac{3.0m}{2\pi (2.3m)} = 0.2076$

and this is

$0.2076*2\pi =1.304$ radians.

Therefore,

$E = \dfrac{\lambda k}{r} \int_{\theta_1}^{\theta_2} cos(\theta)d\theta= \dfrac{\lambda k}{r} \int_{0}^{1.304}cos(\theta) d\theta.$

evaluating the integral, and putting in the numerical values we get:

$E = \dfrac{8.3*10^{-9} *9*10^9}{2.3} *(sin(1.304)-sin(0))\\$

$\boxed{ E = 31.329N/C.}$

You weigh 716 newtons on Earth. You

Otrada [13]

Answer:

537 N

Explanation:

The force due to gravity of a planet is:

F = GMm / r²

where G is the universal gravitational constant

M is the mass of the planet

m is the mass of the object

and r is the distance between the object and the center of the planet

On Earth, you weigh 716 N, so:

716 N = GMm / r²

On planet X:

F = G (3M) m / (2r)²

F = 3/4 GMm / r²

F = 3/4 (716 N)

F = 537 N

When water freezes, its volume increases by 9.05%. What force per unit area is water capable of exerting on a container when it

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

The Pressure is 0.20 MPa.

(b) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Change in volume = 9.05%

{tex]\dfrac{\Delta V}{V_{0}}=0.0905[/tex]

We know that.

The bulk modulus for water

$B=0.20\times10^{10}\ N/m^2$

We need to calculate the pressure difference

Using formula bulk modulus formula

$B=\Delta P\dfrac{V_{0}}{\Delta V}$

$\Delta P=B\dfrac{\Delta V}{V_{0}}$

$\Delta P=0.2\times10^{10}\times0.0905$

$\Delta P=0.2\times10^{6}\ Pa$

$\Delta P=0.20 MPa$

Hence, The Pressure is 0.20 MPa.
