Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Ionosphere is the outermost layer of the Earth's atmosphere,extending from 60 km to 1,000 km altitude.
It mainly consists of ionized gases by the solar radiation.
It is very important layer to Earth because it influences the radio propagation to distant places on Earth.
Being ionized it reflects high frequency(shortwave) radio waves to the sky as well as to the Earth by a technique called "skip" or "skywave" propagation for the communication over long distances.

A biker goes up hill with a constant speed of 10km/h. Then he goes downhill with a constant speed of 50km/h. What's his average

Sladkaya [172]

This is not as simple as it looks.

His average speed is NOT (10km/hr + 50km/hr)/2 = 30 km/hr.

You have to use the definition of speed:

Speed = (total distance covered) / (time to cover the distance).

Let's say the distance up (and down) the hill is 'd' .

Then the time it takes to go up the hill is (d/10) hours.

And the time it takes to come down the hill is (d/50) hours.

Total distance = 2d km

Total time = (d/10) + (d/50) = (5d/50) + (d/50) = 6d/50

Speed = distance/time = 2d/(6d/50) = 100d/6d

<em>Speed = </em>100/6 = <em>16-2/3 km/hr</em>

A solar panel measures 0.57 m by 1.3 m. In direct sunlight, the panel delivers 6.6 A at 6 V. If the intensity of sunlight is 300

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

efficiency of solar panel is 18%

Explanation:

Energy received by the sunlight is given as

$Power = intensity \times area$

here we know the dimensions of the plate as

$L = 0.57 m$

$W = 1.3 m$

now we have

$Area = (0.57)(1.3) m^2$

$A = 0.741 m^2$

now the power received by the sun light is given as

$P_1 = 0.741(300) = 222.3 W$

now the output power due to solar panel is given as

$P_{out} = V i$

$P_{out} = (6.6 A)(6 V)$

$P_{out} = 39.6 Watt$

now the efficiency is given as

$\eta = \frac{P_{out}}{P_{in}}$

$\eta = \frac{39.6}{222.3}$

$\eta = 0.18$

David is driving a steady 30.0 m/s when he passes Tina, who is sitting in her car at rest. Tina begins to accelerate at a steady

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let after time t , Tina catches up David .

Distance travelled by them are equal ,

Distance travelled by Tina

s = ut + 1/2 a t²

= .5 x 2.10 t²

= 1.05 t²

Distance travelled by David

= 30 t ( because of uniform velocity )

1.05 t² = 30t

t = 28.57 s

Distance travelled by Tina

= 1/2 a t²

= .5 x 2.10 x 28.57²

= 857 m approx.
