The Sun emits an enormous of energy in the form of light. Even though the Sun is 150 million kilometers from the Earth, the intensity of sunlight in New York is on average 1300 W/m2. [3 points] Determine how much energy is being emitted by the Sun during each second. As you know, light can be considered an electromagnetic wave; consisting of both an oscillating electric field and an oscillating magnetic field. [6 points] Determine the amplitude of the electric...

Like all light, the light from the sun is an electromagnetic wave. In the vicinity of Earth, the average intensity of sunlight is about 1400W/m^2. For this problem, assume that sunlight is a monochromatic plane wave, so you can apply the equations for the energy and pressure of an EM wave. (a) What is the amplitude of the electric field at Earth? (b) If I go outside on a sunny day, the magnetic field sensor on my phone tells me...

Explore the dependence of sunlight on earth-sun distance. The solar constant, S_0 is the solar radiation at zero zenith angle at the mean earth-sun distance, R_m. As we learned in class the intensity of solar radiation decreases with the square of the distance. Use matlab to devise a function that calculates the daily averaged solar radiation as it depends on earth-sun distance (ignore seasonal changes in the sun's angle) through the course of one year. Use for the eccentricity the...

How do I determine the efficiency for photosynthesis? For example: The sun supplies energy at the rate of about 1.0 kilowatts per square meter of surface area (1 watt = 1 J/s). The plants in an agricultural field produce the equivalent of 20. kg of sucrose(C12H22O11) per hour per hectare(1 ha = 10,000 m^2). Assume that sucrose is produced by the reaction given below. 12 CO2(g) + 11 H2O(l) => C12H22O11(s) + 12O2(g) H = -5640 kJ Instructions: 1. I...

Hi everyone, I have a problem about physics. The question is as below: A certain loudspeaker system emits sound isotropically with a frequency of 1740 Hz and an intensity of 0.853 mW/m2 at a distance of 6.79 m. Assume that there are no reflections. (a) What is the intensity at 40.6 m? At 6.79 m, what are (b) the displacement amplitude and (c) the pressure amplitude of the sound? Take the speed of sound to be 343 m/s and the...

Hello! I am from Kinematics and Dynamics where we are learning about Spur Gears. Unfortunately, I am lost on how to solve this problem. Please show and explain each step legibly on how to solve it. Thanks! 3. The center distance of two 24-tooth, 20-degree pressure angle, full-depth involute spur gears with diametral pitch of 10 teeth/in is increased by 0.05 in over the standard distance. At what pressure angle do the gears operate?

I was reading about sets on complex plains from Advanced Engineering Mathematics, by Krezig. In page 620, 10th edition, it has been mentioned that: "An open square with a diagonal removed is not a domain since this set is not connected". I couldn't understand how has been proved. Can anyone please help me in visualizing this statement? Thanks
