Given Information:  

Power of bulb = w = 25 W atts

distance = d = 9.5 cm = 0.095 m

Required Information:  

Radiation Pressure = ?

Answer:

Radiation Pressure =7.34x10⁻⁷ N/m²

Explanation:

We know that radiation pressure is given by

P = I/c

Where I is the intensity of radiation and is given by

I = w/4πd²

Where w is the power of the bulb in watts and d is the distance from the center of the bulb.

So the radiation pressure becomes

P = w/c4πd²

Where c = 3x10⁸ m/s is the speed of light

P = 25/(3x10⁸*4*π*0.095²)

P = 7.34x10⁻⁷ N/m²

Therefore, the radiation pressure due to a 25 W bulb at a distance of 9.5 cm from the center of the bulb is 7.34x10⁻⁷ N/m²

"The International Space Station (ISS) orbits at a distance of 350 km above the surface of the Earth. (a) Determine the gravitat
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

(a) g = 8.82158145m/s^2.

(b) 7699.990192m/s.

(c)5484.3301s = 1.5234 hours.(extremely fast).

Explanation:

(a) Strength of gravitational field 'g' by definition is

g = \frac{M_{(earth)} }{r^2} G , here G is Gravitational Constant, and r is distance from center of earth, all the values will remain same except r which will be radius of earth + altitude at which ISS is in orbit.

r = 6721,000 meters, putting this value in above equation gives g = 8.82158145m/s^2.

(b) We have to essentially calculate centripetal acceleration that equals new 'g'.

a_{centripetal}=\frac{V^2}{r} =g here g is known, r is known and v is unknown.

plugging in r and g in above and solving for unknown gives V = 7699.990192m/s.

(c)  S = vT,  here T is time period or time required to complete one full revolution.

S =  earth's circumfrence , V is calculated in (B) T is unknown.

solving for unknown gives T = 5484.3301s = 1.5234hours.

Suppose you have two magnets. Magnet A doesn't have its poles labeled, but Magnet B does have a clearly labeled north and south
Elina [12.6K]

Before going to answer this question first we have to know the fundamental principle of magnetism.

A magnet have two poles .The important characteristic of a magnet is that like poles will repel each other while unlike poles will attract each other.

Through this concept the question can be answered  as explained below-

A-As per first option the side of  magnet A is repelled by the south pole  of magnet B. Hence the pole of a must be south .It can't be north as it will lead to attraction.

B-The side of magnet A is repelled by the  north pole of magnet B. Hence the side of A must be  north pole.It can't be a south pole.

C-The side of magnet A is attracted by the south pole  of magnet  B .Hence the side of magnet A must be north.Hence this is right

D-The side of magnet A is attracted by the north pole of magnet B. Hence the side of A must south.It can't be north as it will lead to repulsion.

Hence the option C is right.
