Explanation:

The radiant energy form the sun is absorbed by the black shirt and is converted to heat energy.

Answer 2

Answer:

B Black shirts feel hotter than light-colored shirts on a sunny day.

Explanation:

The energy from the sun also called solar energy is an energy source which reaches the earth as a form of radiant energy, that is it is transmitted without the movement of mass. Solar cells absorbs radiant energy from the sun into electrical energy for powering electrical devices.

During photosynthesis, sunlight absorbed by the chlorophyll of green plants is converted into chemical energy.

In black body, radiant energy abosrde are stored and converted to heat energy, reason dark colored clothes feels hotter than light colored on sunny days.

It takes 130 J of work to compress a certain spring 0.10m. (a) What is the force constant of this spring? (b) To compress the spring an additional 0.10 m, does it take 130 J, more than 130 J or less than 130 J? Verify your answer with a calculation.

Answers

Explanation:

Given that,

Work done to stretch the spring, W = 130 J

Distance, x = 0.1 m

(a) We know that work done in stretching the spring is as follows :

[tex]W=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2\\\\k=\dfrac{2W}{x^2}\\\\k=\dfrac{2\times 130}{(0.1)^2}\\\\k=26000\ N/m[/tex]

(b) If additional distance is 0.1 m i.e. x = 0.1 + 0.1 = 0.2 m

So,

[tex]W=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2\\\\W=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 26000\times 0.2^2\\\\W=520\ J[/tex]

So, the new work is more than 130 J.

A cylindrical disk of wood weighing 45.0 N and having a diameter of 30.0 cm floats on a cylinder of oil of density 0.850 g>cm3 (Fig. E12.19). The cylinder of oil is 75.0 cm deep and has a diameter the same as that of the wood. (a) What is the gauge pressure at the top of the oil column

Answers

Answer:

665.25 Pa

Explanation:

Given data :

Weight of the disk, w = 45 N

Diameter, d = 30 cm

                    = 0.30 m

Therefore, radius of the disk,

[tex]$r=\frac{d}{2}$[/tex]

[tex]$r=\frac{0.30}{2}$[/tex]

   = 0.15 m

Now, area of the cylindrical disk,

[tex]$A=\pi r^2$[/tex]

[tex]$A=3.14 \times (0.15)^2$[/tex]

   [tex]$=0.07065 \ m^2$[/tex]

∴ The gauge pressure at the top of the oil column is :

   [tex]$p=\frac{w}{A}$[/tex]

   [tex]$p=\frac{47}{0.07065}$[/tex]

      = 665.25 Pa

Therefore, the gauge pressure is 665.25 Pa.

The definition of pressure allows to find the result for the pressure at the top of the oil cylinder is:

The pressure is: P = 636.6 Pa

The pressure is defined by the relationship between perpendicular force and area.

          [tex]P = \frac{F}{A}[/tex]

where P is pressure, F is force, and A is area.

They indicate that the wooden cylinder weighs W = 45.0 N and has a diameter of d = 30 cm = 0.30 m.

The area is:

        A = π r² = [tex]\pi \frac{d^2}{4}[/tex]  

In the attachment we see a diagram of the forces, where the weight of the cylinder and the thrust are equal.

         B-W = 0

          B = W

The force applied to the liquid is the weights of the cylinder. Let's replace.

          [tex]P= \frac{W}{A} \\P = W \frac{4}{\pi d^2 }[/tex]  

Let's calculate.

          [tex]P = \frac{45 \ 4 }{\pi \ 0.30^2 }[/tex] P = 45 4 / pi 0.30²

          P = 636.6 Pa

In conclusion using the definition of pressure we can find the result for the pressure at the top of the oil cylinder is:

The pressure is: P = 636.6 Pa.

A nerve impulse travels along a myelinated neuron at 90.1 m/s.
What is this speed in mi/h?

Answers

Answer:

201.5537 mph

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Speed = 90.1 m/s

Speed can be defined as distance covered per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity and as such it has magnitude but no direction.

Mathematically, speed is given by the formula;

Speed = distance/time

To convert this value into miles per hour;

Conversion;

1 meter = 0.000621 mile

90.1 meters = 90.1 * 0.000621 = 0.05595 miles

1 metre per second = 2.237 miles per hour

90.1 meters per seconds = 90.1 * 2.237 = 201.5537 miles per hour

90.1 m/s = 201.5537 mph

Two pistons are connected to a fluid-filled reservoir. The first piston has an area of 3.002 cm2, and the second has an area of 315 cm2. If the first cylinder is pressed inward with a force of 50.0 N, what is the force that the fluid in the reservoir exerts on the second cylinder?​

Answers

Answer:

The force on the second piston is 5246.5 N .

Explanation:

Area of first piston, a = 3.002 cm^2

Area of second piston, A = 315 cm^2

Force on first piston, f = 50 N

let the force of the second piston is F.

According to the Pascal's law

[tex]\frac{f}{a} = \frac{F}{A}\\\\\frac{50}{3.002}=\frac{F}{315}\\\\F = 5246.5 N[/tex]

3. You have a variable-voltage power supply and a capacitor in the form of two metal disks of radius 0.6 m, held a distance of 1 mm apart. What is the largest voltage you can apply to the capacitor without the air becoming highly conductive

Answers

Answer:

The breakdown of air occurs at a maximum voltage of 3kV/mm.

Explanation:

The breakdown of air occurs at a maximum voltage of 3kV/mm.

At this level of voltage the air between the plates become highly ionised and breakdown occurs. Since, the distance held between the plates is 1mm , it can withstand a maximum voltage of 3 kV.

After this voltage the air will become conductive in nature and will form ions in the air between the plates and ultimately breakdown will take place with a flash.

A wheel rotates about a fixed axis with an initial angular velocity of 13 rad/s. During a 8-s interval the angular velocity increases to 57 rad/s. Assume that the angular acceleration was constant during this time interval. How many revolutions does the wheel turn through during this time interval

Answers

Answer:

The number of revolutions is 44.6.

Explanation:

We can find the revolutions of the wheel with the following equation:

[tex]\theta = \omega_{0}t + \frac{1}{2}\alpha t^{2}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]\omega_{0}[/tex]: is the initial angular velocity = 13 rad/s              

t: is the time = 8 s

α: is the angular acceleration

We can find the angular acceleration with the initial and final angular velocities:

[tex] \omega_{f} = \omega_{0} + \alpha t [/tex]

Where:

[tex] \omega_{f} [/tex]: is the final angular velocity = 57 rad/s

[tex] \alpha = \frac{\omega_{f} - \omega_{0}}{t} = \frac{57 rad/s - 13 rad/s}{8 s} = 5.5 rad/s^{2} [/tex]

Hence, the number of revolutions is:

[tex] \theta = \omega_{0}t + \frac{1}{2}\alpha t^{2} = 13 rad/s*8 s + \frac{1}{2}*5.5 rad/s^{2}*(8 s)^{2} = 280 rad*\frac{1 rev}{2\pi rad} = 44.6 rev [/tex]

Therefore, the number of revolutions is 44.6.

Answers

Answer: hello your question lacks some vital information below is the complete question

Suppose a power plant uses a Carnot engine to generate electricity, using the atmosphere at 300 K as the low-temperature reservoir. Suppose the power plant produces 1 × 106 J of electricity with the hot reservoir at 500 K during Day One and then produces 1 × 106 J of electricity with the hot reservoir at 600 K during Day Two. The thermal pollution was

answer:

Total thermal pollution = 2.5 * 10^6 J

Explanation:

Low temperature reservoir = 300 K

hot reservoir temperature = 500 K

Electrical energy produced by plant ( W ) = 1 * 10^6 J

lets assume ; Q1 = energy absorbed , Q2 = energy emitted

W = Q1 - Q2  or  Q2 = Q1 - W  ( we will apply this as the formula for determining thermal pollution )

For day 1

T1 = 500k , T2 = 300k

applying Carnot engine formula

W / Q1 = 1 - T2/T1

∴ Q1 = 10^6 / ( 1 - (300/500)) = 2.5 * 10^6 J

thermal pollution ; Q2 = Q1 - W = ( 2.5 * 10^6 - 1 * 10^6 ) = 1.5 * 10^6 J

for Day 2

T1 = 600k,  T2 = 300k

Q1 = 10^6 / ( 1 - (300/600)) = 2 * 10^6 J

Thermal pollution; Q2 = Q1 - W  = 1 * 10^6 J

Therefore the Total thermal pollution =  1 * 10^6  + 1.5 * 10^6  = 2.5 * 10^6 J

Answers

Answer:

   P = 10135.6 Pa

Explanation:

           P = P₀ + ρ g h

where h is the height from the head to the heart, which is approximately

h = 40 cm = 0.40m  and P₀ is the head pressure P₀ = 6000 Pa

          P = 6000 + 1055 9.8 0.40

          P = 6000 + 4135.6

A football quarterback runs 15.0 m straight down the playing field in 3.00 s. He is then hit and pushed 3.00 m straight backward in 1.71 s. He breaks the tackle and runs straight forward another 24.0 m in 5.20 s. Calculate his average velocity (in m/s) for the entire motion. (Assume the quarterback's initial direction is positive. Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)

Answers

Answer:

Average Velocity = 3.63 m/s

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the total displacement of the quarterback, taking forward direction as positive:

Total Displacement = 15 m - 3 m + 24 m = 36 m

Now, we will calculate the total time taken for this displacement:

Total Time = 3 s + 1.71 s + 5.2 s = 9.91 s

Therefore, the average velocity will be:

[tex]Average\ Velocity = \frac{Total\ Displacement}{Total\ Time}\\\\Average\ Velocity = \frac{36\ m}{9.91\ s}[/tex]

Average Velocity = 3.63 m/s

A 200-lb man carries a 10-lb can of paint up a helical staircase that encircles a silo with radius 30 ft. If the silo is 60 ft high and the man makes exactly two complete revolutions, how much work is done by the man against gravity in climbing to the top

Answers

Answer:

17.07 kJ

Explanation:

The work done against gravity by the man W equals the potential energy change of the man and can of paint, ΔU

W = ΔU = mgΔy where m = mass of man and can of paint = 200 lb + 10 lb = 210 lb = 210 × 1 kg/2.205 lb, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and Δy = height of silo = 60 ft = 60 × 1m/3.28 ft

Since W = mgΔy, we substitute the values of the variables into the equation.

So,

W = mgΔy

W = 210 lb × 1 kg/2.205 lb × 9.8 m/s² × 60 ft × 1m/3.28 ft

W = 123480/7.2324 J

W = 17073.2 J

W = 17.0732 kJ

W ≅ 17.07 kJ

Answer:

Scattering is an interaction that can happen when a given particle or wave, like an electron, impacts a target or material. Then the electron changes it's original path and leaves some energy in the process. (This is a really simplified explanation of scattering, this is a really complex phenomenon, but let's not dive into that path)

Particularly, Davisson and Germer used a beam of electrons against a target of nickel, and these scattered electrons were detected by a detector. All of that in a vacuum chamber.

Then the correct answer is a nickel target.
