Answer:

a) 0.477 W/m²

b) 13.407 N/C

c) 18.96 N/C

Explanation:

P = Power = 150 W

r = Distance = 5 m

ε₀ = Permittivity of space = 8.854×10⁻¹² F/m

a) Average intensity

\bar{S}=\frac{P}{A}\\\Rightarrow \bar{S}=\frac{150}{4\pi r^2}\\\Rightarrow \bar{S}=\frac{150}{4\pi 5^2}\\\Rightarrow \bar{S}=0.477\ W/m^2

∴ Average intensity is 0.477 W/m²

b) Rms value

\bar{S}=c\epsilon_0E_{rms}^2\\\Rightarrow E_{rms}=\sqrt{\frac{\bar{S}}{c\epsilon_0}}\\\Rightarrow E_{rms}=\sqrt{\frac{\bar{0.477}}{3\times 10^8\times 8.854\times 10^{-12}}}\\\Rightarrow E_{rms}=13.407\ N/C

∴ Rms value of the electric field is 13.407 N/C

c) Peak value

E_0=\sqrt 2E_{rms}\\\Rightarrow E_0=\sqrt 2\times 13.407\\\Rightarrow E_0=18.96\ N/C

∴ Peak value of the electric field is 18.96 N/C

Calculate the change in length of concrete sidewalk (coefficient of linear expansion for concrete is 12*10^-6/celcius) that is 1
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 5.4 cm

Explanation:

This problem refers to calculate the change in length in one dimension due to a change in temperature.

Data

α = 12 x 10⁻⁶

Lo = 150 meters

ΔT = 30 °C

Formula

                    ΔL/Lo = αΔT

solve for ΔL

                    ΔL = αLoΔT

Substitution

                    ΔL = (12 x 10⁻⁶)(150)(30)

Simplification

                    ΔL = 0054 m = 5.4 cm

A container of gas is at a pressure of 1.3x10^5 Pa and a volume of 6 m^3. How much work is done by the gas if it expands at a co
Ivenika [448]
In thermodynamics, work of a system at constant pressure conditions is equal to the product of the pressure and the change in volume. It is expressed as follows:

W = P(V2 - V1)
W = 1.3x10^5 (2x6 - 6 )

What type of cooling would a scientist determine formed an igneous rock found with large crystals? Slow cooling Medium rate cool
Dmitriy789 [7]

Slower cooling engenders the growth of larger crystals in igneous rocks, thus, your answer should be slow cooling!

Hope this helped!

What is the frequency of a wave
MAVERICK [17]
The frequency of a wave is the number of waves that passes through a point in a certain time. The less waves that pass in a period of time the lower the frequency of the wave. The more waves that pass in a period of time the higher the frequency of the wave. When measuring wave length the time period used is usually one second.

Describe three physical changes that occur in nature?
Alex Ar [27]

Answer: Physical changes in nature could then be erosion in a mountain, the melting of snow, and a river freezing over from the cold. Since none of these changes affect the chemical composition of the mountain, the snow, or the river, they are physical changes.
