It is proposed that a spaceship might be propelled in the solar system by radiation pressure, using a large sail made of foil. W
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

962291.57928 m²

Explanation:

P_r = Pressure = 2\dfrac{I}{c}  (full reflection)

I = Intensity = \dfrac{P}{A}=\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2}

P = Power = 3.9\times 10^{26}\ W

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

M = Mass of Sun = 1.99\times 10^{30}\ kg

m = Mass of ship = 1500 kg

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

Force of radiation is given by

F_r=P_rA\\\Rightarrow F_r=2\dfrac{I}{c}\times A\\\Rightarrow F_r=2\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2c} A

This force will balance the gravitational force as stated in the question

\dfrac{GMm}{r^2}=2\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2c} A\\\Rightarrow A=\dfrac{4\pi cGMm}{2P}\\\Rightarrow A=\dfrac{4\times \pi\times 3\times 10^8\times 6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.99\times 10^{30}\times 1500}{2\times 3.9\times 10^{26}}\\\Rightarrow A=962291.57928\ m^2

The area of the must be 962291.57928 m²

How many hydrogen atoms are in a water molecule?
earnstyle [38]
The subscript after the element indicates the number of atoms of that element in the molecule. So, in H20, the subscript after the H, which stands for hydrogen, is 2. This means that there are 2 hydrogen atoms in a water molecule.

Hope this helps! :)
