Part 1
When the solar atmosphere accumulates a lot of magnetic energy
to a point that cannot accumulate more, all that magnetic energy is suddenly released,
and with it, a lot of radiation. So much, that in fact it covers all of the
electromagnetic spectrum; from radio waves to gamma rays. That burst of
radiation is called a solar flare. In a single solar flare the amount of
radiation released is millions of times greater than all the nuclear bombs in
the face if the earth exploding together. Lucky for us, most of the high-energy
radiation dissipates before reaching the Earth, and the radiation that do reach
us, is deflected by the Earth’s magnetic field.
Part 2
1. Not all the radiation
of solar flares that reach the Earth is deflected by its magnetic field; some
of them reach us and charges the upper atmosphere with ionized particles. Those
particles react with the gases in the atmosphere and produce a light; that
light is what we call Auroras borealis or southern nights; One the most beautiful
natural spectacles in earth, who thought Auroras begin their lives as deadly
solar flares.
2. Solar flares
contain a lot of high-energy radiation that is extremely dangerous for our
electronic devices; when they reach the Earth, they can damage sensible
electronics like satellites. A very powerful solar flare could even damage all
the electronic devices on the surface of the Earth.
Answer:
a) The minimum thickness of the oil slick at the spot is 313 nm
b) the minimum thickness be now will be 125 nm
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
a) The index of refraction of the oil is 1.20. What is the minimum thickness of the oil slick at that spot?
t
= λ/2n
given that; wavelength λ = 750 nm and index of refraction of the oil n = 1.20
we substitute
t = 750 / 2(1.20)
t = 750 / 2.4
t = 312.5 ≈ 313 nm
Therefore, The minimum thickness of the oil slick at the spot is 313 nm
b)
Suppose the oil had an index of refraction of 1.50. What would the minimum thickness be now?
minimum thickness of the oil slick at the spot will be;
t = λ/4n
given that; wavelength λ = 750 nm and index of refraction of the oil n = 1.50
we substitute
t = 750 / 4(1.50)
t = 750 / 6
t = 125 nm
Therefore, the minimum thickness be now will be 125 nm
Answer:
The total momentum of the system before the collision is 0.0325 kg-m/s due east direction.
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of the cart, m = 250 g = 0.25 kg
Initial velocity of the cart, u = 0.31 m/s (due right)
Mass of another cart, m' = 500 g = 0.5 kg
Initial velocity of the another cart u' = -0.22 m/s (due left)
Let p is the total momentum of the system before the collision. It is given by :
So, the total momentum of the system before the collision is 0.0325 kg-m/s due east direction.
Answer:
5080.86m
Explanation:
We will divide the problem in parts 1 and 2, and write the equation of accelerated motion with those numbers, taking the upwards direction as positive. For the first part, we have:
We must consider that it's launched from the ground (
) and from rest (
), with an upwards acceleration 
that lasts a time t=9.7s.
We calculate then the height achieved in part 1:
And the velocity achieved in part 1:
We do the same for part 2, but now we must consider that the initial height is the one achieved in part 1 (
) and its initial velocity is the one achieved in part 1 (
), now in free fall, which means with a downwards acceleration 
. For the data we have it's faster to use the formula 
, where d will be the displacement, or difference between maximum height and starting height of part 2, and the final velocity at maximum height we know must be 0m/s, so we have:
Then, to get 
, we do:
And we substitute the values:
The answer is Carbon. Beyond being the only element listed here that is located in the second row, it is also in the fourteenth column of the table if you count from left to right. Hope this helps!
