Complete question:

A light bulb emits light that travels uniformly in all directions. Detailed measurements show that at a distance of 56 m from the bulb, the amplitude of the electric field is 3.78 V/m. What is the average intensity of the light?

Answer:

The average intensity of the light is 0.02 W/m²

Explanation:

Given;

Amplitude of the electric field, E₀ = 3.78 V/m

The average intensity of the light is calculated as follows;

$I_{avg} = \frac{c\epsilon_0 E_0^2}{2}$

where;

$I_{avg}$ is the average intensity of the light

c is speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

$I_{avg} = \frac{(3\times 10^8)(8.85 \times 10^{-12}) (3.78)^2}{2} \\\\I_{avg} = 0.01897 \ W/m^2\\\\I_{avg} = 0.02 \ W/m^2$

Therefore, the average intensity of the light is 0.02 W/m²

A 5 kg wooden block sitson a flat straight-away12 meters fromthe bottom of an infinitely long ramp, which has an angle of 20 deg

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

(a) 19.71801m/s Velocity just before going up the ramp.

(b) 74.56338m.

Explanation:

We will solve it in two parts, first we will calculate time that 5kg wooden block would take to just reach ramp and with this time we will calculate final velocity that the wooden block would have in this time.

Second, we will calculate the component of velocity vector along inclined plane and the time that it would take for velocity to be 0 meters/s then with this time we will calculate the distance that inclined plane would travel along inclined plane.

Following formulas will be used.

$x(t) = \frac{1}{2} t^2 = 12m =16.2m/s^2 t^2$

$F =ma$

$V(t) = V_{o} +at$

$x(t) = x_{0} +v_{0}t+\frac{1}{2}a t^2$

(a) Calculating velocity right before going up the ramp.

Wooden block is going on a straightaway and has net for on it.

$F_{n} =F-F_{s} = F-uF_{n} = 100N-0.4*9.8m/s^2*5kg$ = $81N$

and this force produces acceleration of

$a = \frac{F}{m}=\frac{81}{5} =16.2m/s^2 .$

With this acceleration, wooden block would reach at the foot of ramp in.

$x(t) = 12m = 16.2m/s^2*t^2$

$t = 1.217s$

and final velocity will be

$v(t) = v_{0}+at = 0+16.2m/s^2*1.2171s = 19.7180m/s.$

this velocity of wooden box just before going up the ramp.

(b) How far up the ramp will the wooden block go before stopping.

Ramp is at 20° relative to horizontal therefore velocity along the ramp that the wooden block would have will be.

$V= V_{h}cos(20) = 18.5288m/s$

and deceleration along the ramp is

$a = \frac{F_{s} }{m}$

Where $F_{s}$ force of friction along the inclined plane.

$F_s = uF_n = u*m*a$

$a = 9.8m/s^2*cos(20) = 9.2089m/s^2$

is a component of g along normal of the inclined plane.

$F_{s} = 0.25*5kg*9.2089m/s^2$

$= 11.5112N$

$a = \frac{11.5112N}{5kg} = 2.3022m/s^2$

And with this deceleration time needed to get wooded block to stop is.

$v(t) = v_o-at = 18.5288m/s-2.3022m/s^2*t = 0$

$t = \frac{18.5288m/s}{2.3022m/s^2} =8.04813s$

and in that time wooden block would travel

$x(8.04813s) = 18.52881m/s *8.04813s-\frac{1}{} 2.3022m/s^2*(8.0481)^2=74.56338m$

This is how up wooden box will go before coming to stop.

The acceleration due to gravity on Mars is less than that on Earth. On Mars, a person will weigh than on Earth.

pantera1 [17]

On mars people would way less.
An example of this is that if I weighed 700 pounds (I don't by the way) I would then weigh 500 pounds or less.
