Answer #1

Ice cold object is at 0 0C (=273 K) temperature and red hot object is at very higher temperature than ice cold object. From Stephen-Boltzmann law emitted radiation per unit are per unit time is directly proportion to fourth power of temperature and hence red hot object has very high emission of black body radiation. This radiation exerted pressure along normal of its flow. This is why, when same amount of force is exerted on ice cold object and red hot object, red hot object's displacement is less than ice cold object. Radiation pressure oppose external force.

I will be glad to see your comment if you have any query and thumb up if you are satisfied. Thanks...

An experiment is performed in deep space with two uniform spheres, one with mass 20.0 kg and the other with mass 108.0 kg . They have equal radii, r = 0.30 m . The spheres are released from rest with their centers a distance 40.0 m apart. They accelerate toward each other because of their mutual gravitational attraction. You can ignore all gravitational forces other than that between the two spheres. A. When their centers are a distance 28.0 m...

Consider two different separated spheres in otherwise empty space that are bound to each other in a steady state by only gravity (they aren’t in contact, and no other forces are acting on either one of them). In order to maintain a steady state, they must be orbiting around each other. In this situation the center of mass must move with constant velocity; assume it is at rest. The two could follow elliptical paths, however assume the paths are both...

Suppose you have two disks each with 128 pie-shaped sectors. One disk has 32 red sectors and 96 white sectors. The other disk has 64 white sectors and 64 red sectors. The two patterns can be completely arbitrary. Can we place one over the other such that at least 64 sectors on each disk have the same color? Justify your answer using probabilistic methods and be sure to provide a sample space to support your reasoning.

suppose you and two othe people are underwatr when the other two people simultaneously exhale. one of them releases a large bubble and the other releases a small bubble. you observe that both bubbles begin to rise with identical accelerations. thoroughly, and with adequate detail explain your observation. ( interestingly, the bubbles will continue to rise with nearly identical motions, but you are only required to explain the original acceleration)

When interest expense is tax-deductible, firms could benefit from the tax shield of debt. Compare two firms with identical assets and operations. One has debt and pays $30 in interest. The other has no debt. If both firms have a revenue of $80 and costs of operations of $20 (excluding interest expense), can you calculate and compare the after-tax payoffs to the two firms? Assume the corporate income tax rate is 20%.
