The US currently produces about 27 GW of electrical power from solar installations. Natural gas, coal, and oil powered installations produce about 740 GW of electrical power. The average intensity of electromagnetic radiation from the sun on the surface of the earth is 1000 W/m2 . If solar panels are 30% efficient at converting this incident radiation into electrical power, what is the total surface area of solar panels responsible for the 27 GW of power currently produced
Answer:
The total surface area is "90 km²".
Explanation:
Given:
Power from solar installations,
= 27 GW
Other natural installations,
= 740 GW
Intensity,
[tex]\frac{F}{At}=\frac{P}{A}=1000 \ W/m^2[/tex]
%n,
= 30%
Now,
⇒ %n = [tex]\frac{out.}{Inp.}\times 100[/tex]
then,
⇒ [tex]Inp.=\frac{27}{30}\times 100[/tex]
[tex]=90 \ GW[/tex]
As we know,
⇒ [tex]I=\frac{P}{A}[/tex]
by substituting the values, we get
[tex]1000=\frac{90\times 10^9}{A}[/tex]
[tex]A = \frac{90\times 10^9}{10^3}[/tex]
[tex]=90\times 10^6[/tex]
[tex]=90 \ km^2[/tex]
A runner has a temperature of 40°c and is giving off heat at the rate of 50cal/s (a) What is the rate of heat loss in watts? (b) How long will it take for this person's temperature to return to 37°c if his mass is 90kg.
Answer:
(a) 209 Watt
(b) 4482.8 seconds
Explanation:
(a) P = 50×4.18
Where P = rate of heat loss in watt
P = 209 Watt
Applying,
Q = cm(t₁-t₂)................ Equation 1
Where Q = amount of heat given off, c = specific heat capacity capacity of human, m = mass of the person, t₁ and t₂ = initial and final temperature.
From the question,
Given: m = 90 kg, t₁ = 40°C, t₂ = 37°C
Constant: c = 3470 J/kg.K
Substtut these values into equation 1
Q = 90×3470(40-37)
Q = 936900 J
But,
P = Q/t.............. Equation 2
Where t = time
t = Q/P............ Equation 3
Given: P = 209 Watt, Q = 936900
Substitute into equation 3
t = 936900/209
t = 4482.8 seconds

Acceleration of the simple pendulum is 2.62 m/s².
What is meant by a simple pendulum ?When a point mass is suspended from a fixed support by a light, non-extensible string, the instrument is said to be a simple pendulum.
Here,
Let the mass of the bob be m. The simple pendulum is attached to the fixed support with a string having length l. The pendulum makes an angle of 15° with the vertical from the equilibrium point.
Let T be the tension acting on the string.
As, the bob passes through the angle,
The weight of the bob becomes equal to the vertical component of the tension.
mg = T cos15°
Also, the horizontal component of the tension,
T sin15° = ma
By solving these two equations, we get that,
Acceleration of the simple pendulum,
a = g tan15°
a = 9.8 x 0.267
a = 2.62 m/s²
Hence,
Acceleration of the simple pendulum is 2.62 m/s².

1. A 2.7-kg copper block is given an initial speed of 4.0 m/s on a rough horizontal surface. Because of friction, the block finally comes to rest. (a) If the block absorbs 85% of its initial kinetic energy as internal energy, calculate its increase in temperature.
Answer:
ΔT = 0.017 °C
Explanation:
According to the given condition, the change in internal energy of the block must be equal to 85% of its kinetic energy:
Change in Internal Energy = (0.85)(Kinetic Energy)
[tex]mC\Delta T = (0.85)\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\C\Delta T = (0.425)v^2\\\\\Delta T = \frac{0.425v^2}{C}[/tex]

A nearsighted person has a near point of 50 cmcm and a far point of 100 cmcm. Part A What power lens is necessary to correct this person's vision to allow her to see distant objects
Answer:
P = -1 D
Explanation:
For this exercise we must use the equation of the constructor
/ f = 1 / p + 1 / q
where f is the focal length, p and q is the distance to the object and the image, respectively
The far view point is at p =∞ and its image must be at q = -100 cm = 1 m, the negative sign is because the image is on the same side as the image
[tex]\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{infinity} + \frac{1}{-1}[/tex]
f = 1 m
P = 1/f
P = -1 D
An ideal spring is hung vertically from the ceiling. When a 2.0-kg mass hangs at rest from it the spring is extended 6.0 cm from its relaxed length. A downward external force is now applied to the mass to extend the spring an additional 10 cm. While the spring is being extended by the force, the work done by the spring is:
a. -3.6 J
b. -3.3 F
c. -3.4 times 10^-5 J
d. 3.3 J
e. 3.6 J
Answer:
b) - 3.3 J
Explanation:
Given;
mass, m = 2 kg
initial extension of the spring, x = 6 cm = 0.06 m
The weight of the mass on the spring;
W = mg
where;
g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²
W = 2 x 9.81
W = 19.62 N
The spring constant is calculated as;
W = kx
k = W/x
k = 19.62 / 0.06
k = 327 N/m
The work done by the spring when it is extended to an additional 10 cm;
work done = force x distance
distance = extension, x = 10 cm = 0.1 m
The work done by the spring opposes the applied force by acting in opposite direction to the force.
W = - Fx
W = - (kx) x
W = - kx²
W = - (327) x (0.1)²
W = - 3.27 J
W ≅ - 3.3 J
Therefore, the work done by the spring by opposing the applied force is -3.3 J

c) the factors directing behavior toward a goal.
d) the ability to generate novel
Answer:
a) the capacity to understand the world, think rationally, and use resources effectively.
Explanation:
Psychology can be defined as the scientific study of both the consciousness and unconsciousness of the human mind such as feelings, emotions and thoughts, so as to understand how it functions and affect human behaviors in contextual terms.
This ultimately implies that, psychology focuses on studying behaviors and the mind that controls it.
In this scenario, Ashley who is a psychology major, stated that she's interested in the study of intelligence.
Intelligence can be defined as a measure of the ability of an individual to think, learn, proffer solutions to day-to-day life problems and effectively make informed decisions.
In other words, Ashley is interested in the capacity of humans to understand the world, think rationally, and use resources effectively to produce goods and services that meet the unending requirements, needs or wants of the people (consumers or end users) living around the world.

What do you understand by moment of inertia and torque?
Word limit 50-60
Please don't copy from any sources. You can rewrite. Plagiarism will be check. Thank you.
Answer:
Moment of inertia, in physics, quantitative measure of the rotational inertia of a body—i.e., the opposition that the body exhibits to having its speed of rotation about an axis altered by the application of a torque (turning force). The axis may be internal or external and may or may not be fixed.

The unit of both sides of this equation are [tex]\rm s[/tex].

On the right-hand side of this equation:
[tex]\pi[/tex] has no unit.The unit of [tex]r[/tex] is [tex]\rm m[/tex].The unit of [tex]G[/tex] is [tex]\displaystyle \rm \frac{m^{3}}{kg \cdot s^{2}}[/tex], which is equivalent to [tex]\rm m^{3} \cdot kg^{-1} \cdot s^{-2}[/tex].The unit of [tex]m[/tex] is [tex]\rm kg[/tex].[tex]\begin{aligned}& \rm \sqrt{\frac{(m)^{3}}{(m^{3} \cdot kg^{-1} \cdot s^{-2}) \cdot (kg)}} \\ &= \rm \sqrt{\frac{m^{3}}{m^{3} \cdot s^{-2}}} = \sqrt{s^{2}} = s\end{aligned}[/tex].
Hence, the unit on the right-hand side of this equation is also [tex]\rm s[/tex].
Difference between scissors and nut cracker
why the stone moves away when the string is broken rotation
Answer:
When a stone is going around a circular path, the instantaneous velocity of stone is acting as tangent to the circle. When the string breaks, the centripetal force stops to act. Due to inertia, the stone continues to move along the tangent to circular path. So, the stone flies off tangentially to the circular path
Answer:
when the string's rotation is broken, there will be no centripetal force to keep the stone stationary. Thus, the stone will flung away when the rotation is stopped
