The intensity at a distance of 6 m from a source that is radiating equally in all directions is 6.0\times 10^{-10} W/m^2. What i
Sophie [7]

Answer:

P = 271 nW

Explanation:

  • If the source is radiating equally in all directions, it can be treated as a point source, so all points located at the same distance of the source, have the same intensity I, which is related to the power by the following expression:

       I = \frac{P}{A} =\frac{P}{4*\pi *r^{2} } (1)

  • Solving for P, we get:

       P = I*4*\pi *r^{2} = 6.0e-10 W/m2 * 4 * \pi *(6m)^{2} =271 nW (2)

A ladder 10 ft long rests against a vertical wall. If the bottom of the ladder slides away from the wall at a rate of 1.4 ft/s,
Art [367]

Answer:

\dfrac{d\theta}{dt} =-0.233\ rad/s

Explanation:

given,

length of ladder = 10 ft

let x be the distance of the bottom and y be the distance of the top of ladder.

x² + y² = 100

differentiating with respect to time we get

2 x\dfrac{dx}{dt}+2y\dfrac{dy}{dt} = 0..............(1)

when x = 8 and y = 6 and when \dfrac{dx}{dt} = 1.4ft/s

from equation (1)

now,

16\times 1.4 + 12\dfrac{dy}{dt} = 0

\dfrac{dy}{dt} = -\dfrac{5.6}{3}

let the angle between the ladders be θ

tan\theta = \dfrac{y}{x}

y = xtan θ

\dfrac{dy}{dt} =\dfrac{dy}{dt} tan\theta + x sec^2\theta\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}

-\dfrac{5.6}{3} =1.4\times \dfrac{6}{8} + 8 (1+\dfrac{9}{16})\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}

\dfrac{25}{2} \dfrac{d\theta}{dt} =\dfrac{-17.5}{6}

\dfrac{d\theta}{dt} =-0.233\ rad/s

Why do we use the hydrogen spectrum to identify if a star is red or blue<br> shifted? *
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

But if you place a clear container filled with hydrogen gas between the flashlight and the prism, gaps appear in the smooth rainbow of colors, places where the light literally goes missing. The dark absorption lines of a star at rest (left) get shifted towards red if the star is moving away from Earth (right)

A flat uniform circular disk (radius = 2.30 m, mass = 1.00 ✕ 102 kg) is initially stationary. The disk is free to rotate in the
Vadim26 [7]

The resulting angular speed = 0.6 rad / s.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Here there is no external torque acting on the system thus we can apply the law of conservation of angular  momentum  

Angular momentum of the man = Iω

Where I = Inertia of the man about the axis of rotation

or         I = M r 2

            I  = 50 * 1.25*1.25 = 78.125

w = Angular velocity of the man, that can be calculated as follows

Tangential velocity of man = v = 2m/s  

So time taken to describe this circle is t = (2*pi* r) / v

Now angle described in 1 revolution θ = 2*pi radians

This angle is subtended in time t = (2*pi* r) / v

Thus angular speed = w = θ/t = 2*pi* ( v/ 2π r) = v/r = 2.70 / 1.25 = 2.16 rad/s

So angular momentum of man = Iw = 78.125 * 2.16 = 168.75.

To conserve the angular momentum before and after,

Angular momentum of disk = angular momentum of the man  

           i.e.             Iw of disk = 168.75

                                disk of I = (disk of M*R^2) / 2

                                              = (1.00 * 102 * 2.30 * 2.30) / 2

                                              = 269.79

                 Thus 269.79 of disk of w = 168.75

      Resulting angular speed of disk = 168.75 / 269.79 = 0.6 ras / s

Communicating results allows scientists to learn from each other's results.
sveta [45]

True, scientists often talk to each other to figure out if their results were similar and what they could have done better.

Although, talking to other scientists does have risks, other scientists could copy your work and further better it.

So, your final answer is TRUE, sorry for the long answer, I needed to have a word count about 20 characters and then I got carried away! lol
