The gravitational force does change believe it or not, but the explaination for this is because the earths orbit is an oval (or a not circle) the closer it nears its self to the sun.

Complete Question:

The Voyager 1 spacecraft is now beyond the outer reaches of our solar system, but earthbound scientists still receive data from the spacecraft s 20-W radio transmitter. Voyager is expected to continue transmitting until about 2025, when it will be some 25 billion km from Earth.

What s the diameter of a dish antenna that will receive 10−20W of power from Voyager at this time? Assume that the radio transmitter on Voyager transmits equally in all directions(isotropically).  In fact, the antenna on Voyager focuses the signal in a beam aimed at the earth, so this problem over-estimates the size of the receiving dish needed.

Answer:

d = 2,236 m.

Explanation:

The received power on Earth, can be calculated as the product of the intensity (or power density) times the area that intercepts the power radiated.

As we assume that  the transmitter antenna is ominidirectional, power is spreading out over a sphere with a radius equal to the distance to the source.

So, we can get the power density as follows:

I = P /A = P / 4*π*r², where P = 20 W, and r= 25 billion km = 25*10¹² m.

⇒ I = 20 W / 4*π* (25*10¹²)² m²

The received power, is just the product of this value times the area of the receiver antenna, which we assumed be a circle of diameter d:

Pr = I. Ar =( 20W / 4*π*(25*10¹²)² m²) * π * (d²/4) = 10⁻²⁰ W

Simplifying common terms, we can solve for d:

d= √(16*(25)²*10⁴/20) = 2,236 m.

Which is an example of a covalent bond?
velikii [3]
The correct answer is definitely C. There are less than 16 valence electrons in 2 chlorine atoms, but they form a stable bond because a covalent bond should involve <span>a pair of electrons between atoms in a molecule. I thing it's pretty clear. Regards!</span>
