When the Sun's energy moves through space, it reaches Earth's atmosphere and finally the surface. This radiant solar energy warms the atmosphere and becomes heat energy. This heat energy is transferred throughout the planet's systems in three ways: by radiation, conduction, and convection.
Answer:
V = 2.87 m/s
Explanation:
The minimum speed required would be that at which the acceleration due to gravity is negated by the centrifugal force on the water.
Thus, we simply need to set the centripetal acceleration equal to gravity and solve for the speed V using the following equation:
Centripetal acceleration = V^2 / r
where r is the distance of water from the pivot or shoulder.
For our case, r will be 0.65 + 0.19 = 0.84 m
and solving the above equation we get:
9.81 = V^2 / 0.84
V^2 = 8.2404
V = 2.87 m/s
Answer:
Intensity of the light (first polarizer) (I₁) = 425 W/m²
Intensity of the light (second polarizer) (I₂) = 75.905 W/m²
Explanation:
Given:
Unpolarized light of intensity (I₀) = 950 W/m²
θ = 65°
Find:
a. Intensity of the light (first polarizer)
b. Intensity of the light (second polarizer)
Computation:
a. Intensity of the light (first polarizer)
Intensity of the light (first polarizer) (I₁) = I₀ / 2
Intensity of the light (first polarizer) (I₁) = 950 / 2
Intensity of the light (first polarizer) (I₁) = 425 W/m²
b. Intensity of the light (second polarizer)
Intensity of the light (second polarizer) (I₂) = (I₁)cos²θ
Intensity of the light (second polarizer) (I₂) = (425)(0.1786)
Intensity of the light (second polarizer) (I₂) = 75.905 W/m²
Answer:
800 N
Explanation:
By Newton's third law which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
So, as the earth attracts the person towards its center, the person attracts the earth towards itself with the same magnitude of force but in the opposite direction.
Since the person is attracted towards the center of the earth by an 800 N gravitational force, the the earth is attracted toward the person with an 800 N reaction force.
