Use these results to estimate the area (inkm2)of silicon solar cells requiredto satisfy the community power requirements. Assume, thepower requirements for an average single family home of 3 are 108.4 x 106BTU per year and solar panels insolation

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 3170 kw

b) 377 km^2

Explanation:

Estimate of electric power

a) Given :

Average power consumption for a family of 3 = 108.4 * 106 BTU per year  =  0.0317 kw = 31.7 watts

The power requirement for a city of 300000 people

= 31.7 watts * 100000 = 3170000 watts = 3170 kw

b) Given :

Average solar panel insulation = 8.4 W /m^2

Estimate the area of silicon solar cells required to satisfy community power requirement

= (1 * 3170) * (1000/8.4 )

= 377.380 * 10^3 m2 = 377 km^2

A laser positioned on a ship is used to communicate with a small two man research submarine resting on the bottom of a lake. The laser is positioned 12 m above the surface of the water, and it strikes the water 20 m from the side of the ship. The water is 76 m deep and has an index of refraction of 1.33. How far is the submarine from the side of the ship

Answers

Answer:

84.1 m

Explanation:

Given :

The distance from the ship to submarine :

20 + y

Using Pythagoras :

Tan θ = opposite / Adjacent

Tan θ = 20 / 12

12 tan θ = 20

θ = tan^-1(20/12)

20

θ = 59.036°

The angle phi;

n1sinθ1 = n2sin θ

Sin 59.036 = 1.33 * sin phi

Sin phi = sinsin(59.04) ÷1.33

0.8574907 = 1.33 * sin phi

Sin phi = 0.8574907 / 1.33

Sin phi = 0.6447298

phi = sin(0.6447298

Phi = 40.15°

From Pythagoras :

y = 76tan40.15°

y = 76 * 0.8435707

y = 64.11

20 + y

20 + 64.11 = 84.11

an object can have both kinetic and potential energy at the same time. for example, an object which is falling, but has not reached the ground has kinetic energy because it is moving downwards, and potential energy because it is able to move downwards even further than it already has. as an object falls its potential energy decreases, while its kinetic energy increases. the decrease in potential energy is exactly equal to the increase in kinetic energy.

The acceleration of an object in free-fall near the surface of Mars is most nearly what in terms of the local value of g on Earth

Answers

Answer:

0.392

Explanation:

Mm = 0.11Me

Rm = 0.53Re

g = GM / r^2

G = 6.67 * 10^-11

gmars = (G * 0.11Me) / (0.53Re)^2

Recall:

gearth = GMe /Re^2

Hence, gmars in terms of gearth equals

gmars = gearth * (0.11 / 0.53^2)

gmars = gearth * 0.3915984

gmars = 0.392gearth

Electric and gravitational forces have many similar features because they follow idenitical mathematical formulas. In particular, Charge in electricity plays the equivalent role of mass in gravity, while electric field, plays a role corresponding to free-fall acceleration. Because of this kinematics describing projectiles in gravity would carry over to electricity, but the main difference is that in electricity we have positive and negative charges, while in gravity mass is always positive, which means gravity is always attractive, but electricity could be attractive and repulsive.

Explanation:

The formulas of Electric and gravitational fields are as follow

Electric Field

3. If the gravitational force between 2 objects is 50 N, what is the gravitational
force when the distance between the two is increased to four times the distance?

Answers

The gravitational  force : 3.125 N

Further explanation

Given

F₁ = 50 N

Required

F₂

Solution

Newton's Gravity Law:  

[tex]\rm F=G.\dfrac{m_1.m_2}{r^2}[/tex]

with F = gravitational force,  

G = gravitational constant,  

m1, m2 = mass of object,  

r = distance between two objects.  

The value of m and G are the same , so :

F₁ ≈ 1/r₁²

The distance between the two is increased to four times:

r₂ = 4r₁

F₂ = 1/(4r₁)²

F₂ = 1/16r₁²

F₂ = F₁ x 1/16

F₂ = 50 : 16

F₂ = 3.125 N

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The motion of a ball in air where the air residence is indicated to be negligible can be analyzed using Newton's second law.

We set a reference system, where the x-axis is horizontal and the y-axis vertical.

X axis

There are no forces on this axis, therefore the ball goes at constant speed.

Force is zero

Y axis  

In this axis it is subjected to the acceleration of gravity that creates a force equal to the weight of the body, in a vertical direction.

Suppose a car is traveling at 22.8 m/s, and the driver sees a traffic light turn red. After 0.404 s has elapsed (the reaction time), the driver applies the brakes, and the car decelerates at 9.00 m/s2. What is the stopping distance of the car, as measured from the point where the driver first notices the red light?

Answers

Answer:

38.09 m

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the distance travelled by the car during the reaction time. This can be obtained as follow:

Reaction time (tᵣ) = 0.404 s

Initial velocity (u) = 22.8 m/s,

Distance travelled during the reaction time (sᵣ) =?

sᵣ = utᵣ

sᵣ = 22.8 × 0.404

sᵣ = 9.21 m

Next, we shall determine the distance travelled by the car when the brake was applied. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 22.8 m/s

Acceleration (a) = –9 m/s² (since the car is decelerating)

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Distance travelled when the brake was applied (s₆) =?

v² = u² + 2as₆

0² = 22.8² + (2 × –9 × s₆)

0 = 519.84 – 18s₆

Collect like terms

0 – 519.84 = –18s₆

–519.84 = –18s₆

Divide both side by –18

s₆ = –519.84 / –18

s₆ = 28.88 m

Finally, we shall determine the stopping distance of the car, as measured from the point where the driver first notices the red light. This can be obtained as follow:

Distance travelled during the reaction time (sᵣ) = 9.21 m

Distance travelled when the brake was applied (s₆) = 28.88 m

Stopping distance =?

Stopping distance = sᵣ + s₆

Stopping distance = 9.21 + 28.88

Stopping distance = 38.09 m

A 7300 kg rocket blasts off vertically from the launch pad with a constant upward acceleration of 2.20 m/s2 and feels no appreciable air resistance. When it has reached a height of 575 m , its engines suddenly fail so that the only force acting on it is now gravity. Part A What is the maximum height this rocket will reach above the launch pad

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall first calculate the velocity at height h = 575 m .

acceleration a = 2.2 m /s²

v² = u² + 2 a s

u is initial velocity , v is final velocity , s is height achieved

v² = 0 + 2 x 2.2 x 575

v = 50.3 m /s

After 575 m , rocket moves under free fall so g will act on it downwards

If it travels further by height H

from the relation

v² = u² - 2 g H

v = 0 , u = 50.3 m /s

H = ?

0 = 50.3² - 2 x 9.8 H

H = 129.08 m

Total height attained by rocket

= 575 + 129.08

= 704.08 m .

A hanging wire made of an alloy of titanium with diameter 0.05 cm is initially 2.7 m long. When a 15 kg mass is hung from it, the wire stretches an amount 1.68 cm. A mole of titanium has a mass of 48 grams, and its density is 4.54 g/cm3. Based on these experimental measurements, what is Young's modulus for this alloy of titanium

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Young's modulus of elasticity Y = stress / strain

stress = force / cross sectional area

= weight of 15 kg / π r²

= 15 x 9.8 / 3.14 x ( .025 x 10⁻² )²

stress = 74.9 x 10⁷ N / m²

strain = Δ L / L , Δ L is change in length and L is original length

Putting the values

strain = .0168 / 2.7 =.006222

Young's modulus of elasticity Y  = 74.9 x 10⁷ / .006222

= 120.88 x 10⁹ N / m² .
