The power radiated by the sun is 3.90 1026 W. The earth orbits the sun in a nearly circular orbit of radius 1.50 1011 m. The ear

th's axis of rotation is tilted by 27° relative to the plane of the orbit (see the drawing), so sunlight does not strike the equator perpendicularly. What power strikes a 0.570-m2 patch of flat land at the equator at point Q?

Answer:

3234.2 W

Explanation:

Since intensity I = Power/Area. The intensity of the light from the sun, I = power radiated by sun/area of sphere of radius, r = 1.5 × 10¹¹ m.

So, I = 3.9 10²⁶W/4π(1.5 × 10¹¹ m)² = 2.069 × 10³ W/m².

Now, the power radiated on the patch of area 0.570 m² at the equator is

P = Icos27/A = 2.069 × 10³ W/m² cos27/0.570 m² = 1843.49/0.570 = 3234.2 W

A 6.00 g lead bullet traveling at420 m/s is stopped by a large
Westkost [7]

Answer:

The increase in temperature of the bullet is 351.1 kelvin

Explanation:

First, we should find the kinetic energy of the bullet is:

K=\frac{mv^{2}}{2}=\frac{(6\times10^{-3}\,kg)(420\,\frac{m}{s})^{2}}{2}

with m the mass and v the velocity.

K=529.2 J

Now we know that half of the kinetic energy of the bullet is transformed into internal energy, by second's law of thermodynamics that means heat (Q) to raise bullet temperature (T), so:

Q=\frac{K}{2}= 264.6\,J

To know what the increase in temperature is, we should use specific heat of lead:

c=125.604 \frac{J}{kg\.K}

The equation that relates specific heat, change in temperature and mass is:

Q=cm\varDelta T

solving for \varDelta T:

\varDelta T=\frac{Q}{cm}=\frac{264.6}{(125.604)(6\times10^{-3})}

\varDelta T= 351.10\, K

Explain the significance of kelvin temperature scole.​
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

The Kelvin temperature scale is used by scientists because they wanted a temperature scale where zero reflects the complete absence of thermal energy. ... Many quantum mechanical properties are washed out by the thermal agitation that occurs in materials.
