The operating temperature of a tungsten filament in an incandescent light bulb is 2450 K, and its emissivity is 0.350. Find the

surface area of the filament of a 150 W bulb if all the electrical energy consumed by the bulb is radiated by the filament as electromagnetic waves. (Only a fraction of the radiation ap- pears as visible light.)

Answer:

A = 2.1 × 10^(-4) m²

Explanation:

We are given;

Temperature; T = 2450 K

Emissivity; ε = 0.35

Bulb rating; H = 150 W

To calculate the surface area, we will use the formula;

H = AεσT⁴

Where σ is stephan boltzman constant with a value of 5.66 × 10^(−8) W/m²⋅K⁴

Making A the subject of the formula, we have;

A = H/εσT⁴

Plugging in the relevant values gives;

A = 150/(0.35 × 5.66 × 10^(−8) × 2450⁴)

A = 2.1 × 10^(-4) m²

Why are hurricanes considered more damaging than tornadoes when tornadoes have stronger winds
chubhunter [2.5K]

-- A tornado follows a path that's a few miles wide, for a few hours.
   Then it's all over.

-- A hurricane follows a path that's several hundred miles wide,
   for a week or two, before it's over.
   Then comes the rain, continuing on the same path, for another week.

Suppose a large housefly 3.0 m away from you makes sound with an intensity level of 40.0 dB. What would be the sound intensity l
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the intensity of the noise be represented by I

Given that

40dB = 10 log 10 ⁡ ( I /I•) ........ 1

I• is the lowest or threshold intensity of sound made.

I represents the intensity of the sound/ noise

The intensity of noise of 1000flies will be

β = 10 log 10 ⁡(1000I/I•)

Open up the bracket

β = 10 log 10(1000)+ 10 log 10(I/I•)

10 log 10(10^3)+10 log 10(I/I•)

3×10(10 log 10) +10 log 10(I/I•)

Recall, 10 log 10 = 1

30×1 + 10 log 10(I/I•).........2

Put equation 1 into 2

β =30+40

= 70db

You push a 85 kg shopping cart from rest with a net force of 250 n for 5 seconds,at which point it flies off a cliff that is 100
Vikki [24]

m = mass of the cart = 85 kg

F = net force on the cart = 250 N

a = acceleration of the cart

acceleration of the cart is given as

a = F/m

a = 250/85

a = 2.94 m/s²

t = time for which the force is applied = 5 sec

v₀ = initial velocity of the cart = 0 m/s

v = final velocity of the cart just before  it flies off the cliff = ?

using the equation

v = v₀ + a t

inserting the values

v = 0 + (2.94) (5)

v = 14.7 m/s

consider the motion of cart after it flies off the cliff in vertical direction :

v' = initial velocity in vertical direction = 0 m/s

a' = acceleration in vertical direction = g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

t' = time taken for the cart to land = ?

Y' = vertical displacement of the cart = height of cliff = 100 m

using the kinematics equation

Y' = v' t' + (0.5) a' t'²

100 = (0) t' + (0.5) (9.8) t'²

t' = 4.52 sec


consider the motion of cart along the horizontal direction after it flies off the cliff

X = distance traveled from the base of cliff = ?

t' = time of travel = 4.52 sec

v = velocity along the horizontal direction = 14.7 m/s

distance traveled from the base of cliff is given as

X = v t'

X = 14.7 x 4.52

X  = 66.4 m
