The Sun radiates energy at a rate of about 4×1026W. Earth is about 150×106km from the Sun.
sergiy2304 [10]

The average intensity received on the Earth's surface is 12.6*10^{10} W/m^{2}

​Intensity = Rate  of  energy radiated/4\pi R^{2}

where  R is the distance of the earth from the sun.

I=4*10^{26}/4\pi *[150*106*10^{3}]^{2}

I=0.12597*10^{12}

I=12.6*10^{10} W/m^{2}

What is the meaning of the intensity of sunlight?

Sun intensity refers to the amount of incoming solar energy, or radiation, that reaches the Earth's surface. The angle at which the rays from the sun hit the Earth determines this intensity.

What is the average intensity received on the Earth's surface?

The average intensity received on the Earth's surface is given by:

I=rate of energy radiated/4\pi R^{2}

Thus, the average intensity received on the Earth's surface is 12.6*10^{10} W/m^{2}

Two physics students shoot a water-bottle rocket from a 1 m tall stand. They calculate that rocket will travel with the given fo
Kitty [74]

Answer:

2 secs; 65 feet

Explanation:

The function guiding the water bottle is given as:

f(x) = -16t² + 64t + 1

The bottle will reach maximum height when velocity, df/dt (velocity is the first derivative of distance) = 0.

Therefore:

df/dt = 0 = -32t + 64

=> 32t = 64

t = 64/32 = 2 seconds

This is the time it will take to reach the maximum height.

To find this height, we insert t = 2 into the function f(x):

f = -16(2)² + 64(2) + 1

f = -(16 * 4) + 128 + 1

f = -64 + 128 + 1

f = 65 ft

Its maximum height is 65 ft.

What is the definition of gravitation potential energy?
ioda
Gravitational potential energy is energy an object possesses because of its position in a gravitational field. The most common use of gravitational potential energy is for an object near the surface of the Earth where the gravitational acceleration can be assumed to be constant at about 9.8 m/s2.

A soap bubble, when illuminated with light of frequency 5.27 Hz × 1014 Hz, appears to be especially reflective. If it is surroun
denis23 [38]

Answer:

1.07004\times 10^{-7}\ m

Explanation:

n_s = Refractive index of bubble = 1.33

f = Frequency of light = 5.27\times 10^{14}\ Hz

c = Speed of light = 3\times 10^8\ m/s

The wavelength of light is given by

\lambda=\dfrac{2n_st}{m-\dfrac{1}{2}}

Wavelength is also given by

\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}

m = 1 for minimum thickness

\dfrac{c}{f}=\dfrac{2n_st}{m-\dfrac{1}{2}}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{m-\dfrac{1}{2}c}{2n_sf}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{(1-\dfrac{1}{2})\times 3\times 10^8}{2\times 1.33\times 5.27\times 10^{14}}\\\Rightarrow t=1.07004\times 10^{-7}\ m

The minimum thickness is 1.07004\times 10^{-7}\ m
