We can reasonably model a 90-W incandescent lightbulb as a sphere 7.0cm in diameter. Typically, only about 5% of the energy goes

to visible light; the rest goes largely to nonvisible infrared radiation.
A) What is the visible light intensity at the surface of the bulb?
B) What is the amplitude of the electric field at this surface, for a sinusoidal wave with this intensity?
C) What is the amplitude of the magnetic field at this surface, for a sinusoidal wave with this intensity?

Answer:

292.3254055 W/m²

469.26267 V/m

1.56421\times 10^{-6}\ T

Explanation:

P = Power of bulb = 90 W

d = Diameter of bulb = 7 cm

r = Radius = \frac{d}{2}=\frac{7}{2}=3.5\ cm

\epsilon_0 = Permittivity of free space = 8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m

c = Speed of light = 3\times 10^8\ m/s

The intensity is given by

I=\frac{P}{A}\\\Rightarrow I=\frac{90}{4\pi 0.035^2}\\\Rightarrow I=5846.50811\ W/m^2

5% of this energy goes to the visible light so the intensity is

I=0.05\times 5846.50811\\\Rightarrow I=292.3254055\ W/m^2

The visible light intensity at the surface of the bulb is 292.3254055 W/m²

Energy density of the wave is

u=\frac{1}{2}\epsilon_0E^2

Energy density is also given by

\frac{I}{c}=\frac{1}{2}\epsilon_0E^2\\\Rightarrow E=\sqrt{\frac{2I}{c\epsilon_0}}\\\Rightarrow E=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 292.3254055}{3\times 10^8\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}}\\\Rightarrow E=469.26267\ V/m

The amplitude of the electric field at this surface is 469.26267 V/m

Amplitude of a magnetic field is given by

B=\frac{E}{c}\\\Rightarrow B=\frac{469.26267}{3\times 10^8}\\\Rightarrow B=1.56421\times 10^{-6}\ T

The amplitude of the magnetic field at this surface is 1.56421\times 10^{-6}\ T

If a car moves with a uniform speed of 2m/s in a circle of radius 0.4m, what is its angular speed?
REY [17]

Answer:

The car's angular speed is \frac{rad}{s}.

Explanation:

Angular velocity is usually measured with \frac{radians}{sec}, so I'm going to use that to answer your question.

The relationship between tangential velocity and angular velocity (ω)  is given by:

V = \omega R

Using the values from the question, we get:

2 \frac{m}{s} = \omega (0.4m)

\omega = 5 \frac{rad}{s}

Therefore, the car's angular speed is 5 \frac{rad}{s}.

Hope this helped!

A sled slides down a hill, reaches the level surface, and eventually comes to a stop. Which fact ultimately explains why the sle
Kitty [74]

Answer:

B. The presence of an unbalanced force(e.g friction) causes a moving object to stop.

Explanation:

As the friction is that force that can stop the sled upon reaching the levelled surface so the option b is correct.

In your physics lab you are given a 10.1-kg uniform rectangular plate with edge lengths 68.7 cm by 47.5 cm. Your lab instructor
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

2.35 kgm^2

Explanation:

we take length 68.7 cm as x-axis and 47.5 cm as y-axis then the axis about which we have to find out moment of inertia will be z-axis.

moment of inertia about x-axis

I_x = ML^2 /3 = 10.1\times 0.4752 /3 = 0.7596 kg-m2

I_y = 10.1\times 0.6872 / 3 = 1.5889 kgm^2

by perpendicular axis theorem

I_z = I_x + I_y = 0.7596 + 1.5889 = 2.35 kgm^2
