Answer:

1.15*10^-7 N/m²

Explanation:

Radiation pressure is the pressure exerted on any surface, as a result of the exchange of momentum between the object and its electromagnetic field.

The formula to calculate radiation pressure on a perfect absorber is

P = s/c, where

P = radiation pressure

s = intensity of light

c = speed of light

Now, on substituting the values and plugging it into the equation, we have

P = 34.5 / 3*10^8

P = 1.15*10^-7 N/m²

therefore, radiation pressure is found to be 1.15*10^-7 N/m²

How do you know that a chemical change has happened
Elodia [21]

Answer:

theres is many states of chemical change but its not exaclty the same as physical the appearence might change alittle but chemical like frying a egg is a chemical change because a change of materials into another, new materials with different properties and one or more than one new substances are formed and the subtance changeing or the materials can show chemical changed happened you cant always see it but touching too like heat energy can show a chemical change

Explanation:

i hope this helps and keep ur grades up :)

The pressure in Arabian sea is much bigger than near the surface?<br> please don't scam
sashaice [31]

Answer:

In general, the annual sea surface temperatures(SSTs) in the Bay of Bengal(BOB) are higher than the Arabian sea(AS). because, there are two main reasons for higher SST in the Bay of Bengal than the Arabian Sea. they are 1. stratification, 2.strong mixing

stratification is nothing but a phenomenon which stratifies(layers) the sea water when different density water(fresh water, rain water) add into the sea water. So the stratification in the bay of Bengal is comparatively high than the Arabian sea due to the high river discharge and precipitation in the BOB than the AS. the mixing process over the Arabian sea is higher than the Bay of Bengal due to the prevailing of strong winds over the AS (because of the presence of the mountains of east Africa) than Bay of Bengal (because of the winds over the BOB are sluggish in nature then the AS). But generally winds over the sea mixes easily the normal sea water than stratified/stabilized sea water column. That's why less mixing will takes place over the surface of BOB than the AS. So due to the presence of less mixing over the surface of the Bay of Bengal than the Arabian sea, the SST values over the Arabian sea are always lower than the Bay of Bengal. that's why the Arabian sea is colder than the Bay of Bengal.

Choose all of the true statements regarding the relationship between voltage, resistance, and current. Current is measured in am
wel

-- <u><em>Current is measured in amps.</em></u>  (You can use any symbol you want to represent current, but the most common one is " I ", not "Δ".)

-- <u><em>The relationship between current, voltage, and resistance is mathematically defined by Ohm's Law. </em></u>

-- <u><em>Current is the flow of electrons through a circuit.</em></u>

-- (Ohm's Law is NOT mathematically represented by the equation V=I/R.)  <u><em>It should be V = I · R</em></u> .  

(When solving for Resistance in a circuit and both voltage and current are known values, the equation I =V*R is not true, and not the way to solve it.)  <u><em>If the resistance is what you're looking for, then the equation to use is  </em></u><u><em>R = V / I</em></u><u><em> .  </em></u>

<em>-- </em><u><em>If the voltage in a circuit is increased, the current will also increase.</em></u>
