Answer:

And unless people interfere, thermal energy — or heat — naturally flows in one direction only: from hot toward cold. Heat moves naturally by any of three means. The processes are known as conduction, convection and radiation. Sometimes more than one may occur at the same time.

If you could shine a very powerful flashlight beam toward the Moon, estimate the diameter of the beam when it reaches the Moon.

grin007 [14]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the Rayleigh Criterion (Angular resolution)criterion. This conceptos describes the ability of any image-forming device such as an optical or radio telescope, a microscope, a camera, or an eye, to distinguish small details of an object, thereby making it a major determinant of image resolution. By definition is defined as:

$\theta = 1.22\frac{\lambda}{d}$

Where,

$\lambda$ = Wavelength

d = Width of the slit

$\theta$ = Angular resolution

Through the arc length we can find the radius, which would be given according to the length and angle previously described.

The radius of the beam on the moon is

$r = l\theta$

Relacing $\theta$

$r = l(\frac{1.22\lambda}{d})$

$r = 1.22\frac{l\lambda}{d}$

Replacing with our values we have that,

$r = 1.22*(\frac{(384*10^3km)(\frac{1000m}{1km})(550*10^{-9}m)}{7*10^{{-2}}})$

$r = 3680.91m$

Therefore the diameter of the beam on the moon is

$d = 2r$

$d = 2 * (3690.91)$

$d = 7361.8285m$

Hence, the diameter of the beam when it reaches the moon is 7361.82m

A shopper pushes a 5.32 kg grocery cart

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

$\text { acceleration of the cart is } 10.94 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$

Explanation:

According to “Newton's second law”

“Force” is “mass” times “acceleration”, or F = m× a. This means an object with a larger mass needs a stronger force to be moved along at the same acceleration as an object with a small mass

Force = mass × acceleration

$\text { Acceleration }=\frac{\text { force }}{\text { mass }}$

Given that,

Mass = 5.32 kg

$\text { Force }=12.7 \mathrm{N} \text { forces at }-28.7^{\circ}$

$x=-28.7^{\circ}$

F = 12.7N

Normal force = mg + F sinx,

“m” being the object's "mass",

“g” being the "acceleration of gravity",

“x” being the "angle of the cart"

$\mathrm{g}=9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\text { (g is referred to as the acceleration of gravity. Its value is } 9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^ 2 \text { on Earth })$
