A radiometer can be used to determine the position of an approaching hot object by measuring the amount of irradiation it detect

s. Consider a radiometer placed at a distance H 5 0.5 m from the x-axis is used to measure the position of an approaching small blackbody object. If the radiometer is measuring 80% of the irradiation corresponding to the position of the object directly under the radiometer (x 5 0), determine the position of the object L.

Richard needs to fly from san diego to halifax, nova scotia and back in order to give an important talk about mathematics. on th
kondor19780726 [428]

When plane is going towards Halifax the speed of wind is in the direction of fly

so overall the net speed of the plane will increase

while when he is on the way back the air is opposite to flight so net speed will decrease

now the total time of the journey is 13 hours

out of this 2 hours he spent in mathematics talk

so total time of the fly is 13 - 2 = 11 hours

now we have formula to find the time to travel to Halinex

t_1 = \frac{d}{v + 50}

time taken to reach back

t_2 = \frac{d}{v - 50}

now we have total time

T = t_1 + t_2

11 = \frac{d}{v - 50} + \frac{d}{v + 50}

here d= 3000 miles

11 = \frac{3000}{v - 50} + \frac{3000}{v + 50}

3.67 * 10^{-3} = \frac{2v}{v^2 - 2500}

v^2 - 2500 = 545.45v

solving above quadratic equation we will have

v = 550 mph

so speed of plane will be 550 mph

You are pulling your little sister on her sled across an icy (frictionless) surface. When you exert a constant horizontal force
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

Mass of Little Sister = 44.17 kg

Explanation:

From Newton's second law of motion, the magnitude of force applied on the sled is given by the following formula:

F = ma

where,

F = Force Applied = 120 N

a = Acceleration = 2.3 m/s²

m = Mass of Sled + Mass of Little Sister = 8 kg + Mass of Little Sister

Therefore,

120 N = (2.3 m/s²)(8 kg + Mass of Little Sister)

(120 N)/(2.3 m/s²) = 8 kg + Mass of Little Sister

Mass of Little Sister = 52.17 kg - 8 kg

<u>Mass of Little Sister = 44.17 kg</u>

The frequency of the applied RF signal used to excite spins is directly proportional to the magnitude of the static magnetic fie
Anni [7]

Answer:

The inverse frequency is \dfrac{3}{80}\ s

Explanation:

Given that,

Magnetic field = 20 T

Proportionality constant = 5 Hz/T

Change in magnetic field = 3 T

We know that,

B=\dfrac{K}{\dfrac{1}{\omega}}

We need to calculate the inverse frequency

Using formula of frequency

\Delta(\dfrac{1}{\omega})=\dfrac{\Delta B}{k\times(\dfrac{1}{\omega^2})}

\Delta(\dfrac{1}{\omega})=\dfrac{k\times\Delta B}{B^2}

Put the value into the formula

\Delta(\dfrac{1}{\omega})=\dfrac{3\times5}{(20)^2}

\Delta(\dfrac{1}{\omega})=\dfrac{3}{80}\ s

Hence, The inverse frequency is \dfrac{3}{80}\ s
