. How does the intensity of sunlight received affect Earth’s temperatures?

Physics

When the sun's rays strike Earth's surface near the equator, the incoming solar radiation is more direct (nearly perpendicular or closer to a 90˚ angle). Therefore, the solar radiation is concentrated over a smaller surface area, causing warmer temperatures.

You measure an electric field of 1.36×106 N/C at a distance of 0.158 m from a point charge. There is no other source of electric
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

The Electric flux will be 0.42\times10^6\ \rm N.m^2/C

Explanation:

Given

Strength of the Electric Field at a distance of 0.158 m from the point charge is

E=1.36\times10^6\ \rm N/C

We know that the flux of the Electric Field can be calculated by using Gauss Law which is given by

\int E.dA=\dfrac{q_{in}}{\epsilon_0}\\

Let consider a  sphere of radius 0.158 m as Gaussian Surface at a distance of 0.158 m from the point charge and Let \phi be the flux of the Electric Field coming out\passing through it which is given  by

\phi=\int E.dA=1.36\times10^6 \times4\pi \times 0.158^2\\\\=0.42\times10^6\ \rm N.m^2/C

It can be observed that same amount of  flux which is passing through the Gaussian sphere of radius 0.158 is also passing through the Gaussian sphere of radius 0.142 m at a distance of 0.142 m from its centre.

Also it can be observed that the charge inside the two Gaussian Sphere mentioned have same value so the Flux of electric field through them will also be same.

So the electric flux through the surface of sphere that has given charge at its centre and that has radius 0.142 m is  0.42\times10^6\ \rm N.m^2/C

A computer hard disk starts from rest, then speeds up with an angular acceleration of 190 rad/s2rad/s2 until it reaches its fina
Otrada [13]

Answer:

962 rpm.

Explanation:

given,

angular acceleration = 190 rad/s²

initial angular speed = 0 rad/s

final angular speed = 7200 rpm

                                 =7200\times\dfrac{2\pi}{60}

                                 =754\ rad/s

we need to calculate the revolution of disk after 10 s.

time taken to reach the final angular velocity

    using equation of angular motion

 \omega_f - \omega_i = \alpha t

 754 - 0 =190\times t

    t = 4 s

rotation of wheel in 4 s

\theta =\omega_i t+  \dfrac{1}{2}\alpha t

\theta = \dfrac{1}{2}\alpha t^2

\theta = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 190 \times 4^2

 θ = 1520 rad

 \theta = \dfrac{1520}{2\pi}

 \theta =242\ rev

now, revolution of the disk in next 6 s

angular velocity is constant

\omega_f = \dfrac{\theta_f-\theta_i}{t_f-t_i}

754 = \dfrac{\theta_f-1520}{10-4}

θ_f = 6044 rad

θ_f = \dfrac{6044}{2\pi}

revolution of the computer hard disk

θ_f =  962 rpm.

total revolution of the computer disk after 10 s is equal to 962 rpm.

a bag of cement is pulled along a horizontal plane by a constant force of 15n calculate the work done in moving the bag through
morpeh [17]

Answer:

300J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Constant force = 15N

Distance  = 20m

Unknown:

Work done   = ?

Solution:

Work done is the force applied to move a body through a particular distance.

 Work done  = Force x distance

 So;

  Work done  = 15 x 20  = 300J

Two guitars are playing together producing a beat frequency. The first guitar is playing at a frequency of 867 Hz and the beat i
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

892 Hz or 842 Hz

Explanation:

Given

The frequency of first guitar is 867 Hz

Beat is produced for every 0·04 s

∴ Beat has a time period of 0·04 s

<h3>Beat frequency is defined as the inverse of the time period of the beat </h3>

Beat frequency = 1 ÷ (Time period) = 1 ÷ 0·04 = 25 Hz

Let the frequency of the second guitar be f Hz

<h3>Beat frequency is defined as the absolute difference between the two frequencies</h3>

∴ Beat frequency = (867 - f) or (f - 867)

First case

25 = 867 - f ⇒ f = 842 Hz

Second case

25 = f - 867 ⇒ f = 892 Hz

∴ Possible frequencies of second guitar could be 892 Hz or 842 Hz
