Which explanation describes the forces involved for a person to walk down the sidewalk?
Svet_ta [14]

The person walking down the sidewalk follows the newton's third law of motion.

Explanation:

  • A person is able to walk down the sidewalk by using the reaction forces from the ground.
  • In simple term, feet pushes the ground and the reaction forces makes the feet able to walk.
  • Another important force included in the walking mechanism is friction. With out friction one cannot walk down the sidewalks.
  • Hence the forces involved in the walking of a person down the sidewalk are:
  1. Friction force
  2. Action and reaction force between ground and person's feet.

Two point charges are brought closer together, increasing the force between them by a factor of 20. By what factor was their sep
olga55 [171]

The separation between them is \frac{r}{\sqrt{20} }

Concept :

If the force increases, distance between charges must decrease. Force is indirectly proportional to the distance squared.

Given,

Two point charges are brought closer together, increasing the force between them by a factor of 20.

Original force is

F = \frac{kq_{1} q_{2} }{r^{2} } -------- ( 1 )

Here, q_{1} , q_{2} are charges and r is the distance between them

New force F' = \frac{kq_{1q_{2} } }{r'^{2} } ----------- (2 )

Divide ( 1 ) and ( 2 )

\frac{F'}{F} = \frac{\frac{kq_{1}q_{2}  }{r'^{2} } }{\frac{kq_{1}_{2}  }{r^{2} } }

20 = \frac{r^{2} }{r'^{2} }

r' = \frac{r}{\sqrt{20} }

Given that force between them are increasing and therefore distance between them decrease by \frac{r}{\sqrt{20} }

The closest stars are 4 light years away from us. How far away must you be from a 854 kHz radio station with power 50.0 kW for t
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

The distance from the radio station is 0.28 light years away.

Solution:

As per the question:

Distance, d = 4 ly

Frequency of the radio station, f = 854 kHz = 854\times 10^{3}\ Hz

Power, P = 50 kW = 50\times 10^{3}\ W

I_{p} = 1\ photon/s/m^{2}

Now,

From the relation:

P = nhf

where

n = no. of photons/second

h = Planck's constant

f = frequency

Now,

n = \frac{P}{hf} = \frac{50\times 10^{3}}{6.626\times 10^{- 34}\times 854\times 10^{3}} = 8.836\times 10^{31}\ photons/s

Area of the sphere, A = 4\pi r^{2}

Now,

Suppose the distance from the radio station be 'r' from where the intensity of the photon is 1\ photon/s/m^{2}

I_{p} = \frac{n}{A} = \frac{n}{4\pi r^{2}}

1 = \frac{8.836\times 10^{31}}{4\pi r^{2}}

r = \sqrt{\frac{8.836\times 10^{31}}{4\pi}} = 2.65\times 10^{15}\ m

Now,

We know that:

1 ly = 9.4607\times 10^{15}\ m

Thus

r = \frac{2.65\times 10^{15}}{9.4607\times 10^{15}} = 0.28\ ly
