The amount of lighting on a surface drops to (1/4) of the initial illumination when the distance between a light source and the surface it falls on is doubled.
What is illumination?The amount of light or luminous flux that falls on a surface is known as illumination. It is expressed as lux or lumens per square meter.
The square of the distance has an inverse relationship with the light intensity;
[tex]\rm I = \frac{1}{r^2}[/tex]
Where,
I is the light intensity
r is the distance
Let r is the distance and I is the sound intensity for case 2;
r' = 2r
[tex]\rm I' = \frac{1}{(2r)^2} \\\\ I' = \frac{1}{4r^2} \\\\ I' = \frac{I}{4}[/tex]
When we double the distance between a source of light and the surface on which it falls, the amount of illumination on the surface decreases to(1/2) of the original illumination.
Hence the value of the fraction is 1/4.

b. i. In a hydraulic press, a force of 200N is applied to master piston of area 25cm. If
the press is designed to produce a force of 5000N, determine the area of the slave
piston.
(4marks)
Answer:
625 cm²
Explanation:
The pressure is the same on both pistons.
F/A = F/A
200 N / 25 cm² = 5000 N / A
A = 625 cm²
calculate the energy dissipated by an electric iron which draws a current of 5A from a240v power supply for 25minutes
Explanation:
Given,
I = 5 A
V = 240 V
T = 25 mins = 1500 sec
Now,
Energy dissipated = IVT= 5×240×1500 = 1800000 J
Increase in Space Suit Pressure 0.0/3.0 points (graded) If the pressure in a space suit increases, how will each of the following be affected? Flexilibity will: Increase Decrease Stay the same unanswered The required pre-breathe time will: Increase Decrease Stay the same unanswered The mass of the suit will: Increase Decrease Stay the same
Answer:
Flexibility Increases
Pre-breathe time decreases
Mass of suit decreases.
Explanation:
Spacesuits are designed for space shuttles when a person goes to explore the galaxy. The spacesuits shuttle era are pressurized at 4.3 pounds per inch. The gas in the suit is 100% of oxygen and there is more oxygen to breathe when the altitude of 10,000 is reached. This will decrease the breathing time and mass of suit.
A very thin film of soap, of thickness 170 nm, in between air seems dark. On the other hand, when placed on top of glass some visible light is seen to shine from the film. How can this happen and what is the smallest visible light that creates constructive interference when we place the film on top of glass
Answer:
λ₀ = 2 d n
Explanation:
A soap film is a layer where the lus is reflected on the surface and on the inside of the film, these two reflected rays can interfere with each other either constructively or destructively.
Let's analyze the general conditions of this interference,
* When the ray of light reaches the surface of the film it is reflected, as the index of refraction of the air is less than the index of the film, the reflected ray has a phase change of 180º
* When the ray penetrates the film, its wavelength changes due to the refractive index of the film.
λ = λ₀ / n
where lick is the wavelength in the vacuum or air and n index of refraction of the film, in general this interference is observed perpendicular to the film, so the sine veils 1. the expression for constructive interference taking in what previous remains
2d = (m + ½) λ
the expression for destructive interference remains
2d = m λ
2d = m λ₀ / n
When the film is placed on a glass plate whose index of refraction is greater than the index of refraction of the film, in the reflection in the lower part of the film another phase difference of 180º is created, for which we have a difference of total phase of 180 +180 = 360º, which is equivalent to no phase difference, therefore the two previous equations are interchanged.
Therefore where we had destructive interference now a cosntructive interference happens we can see the reflected light.
Find us the wavelength that this constructive interference creates
2d n = m λ₀
λ₀ = 2 d n / m
To find the minimum wavelength, suppose we observe the first interference pattern m = 1
λ₀ = 2 d n
where d is the thickness of the film and n the index of refraction of the same
A 24 cm radius aluminum ball is immersed in water. Calculate the thrust you suffer and the force. Knowing that the density of aluminum is 2698.4 kg / m3
Answer:
W =1562.53 N
Explanation:
It is given that,
Radius of the aluminium ball, r = 24 cm = 0.24 m
The density of Aluminium, [tex]d=2698.4\ kg/m^3[/tex]
We need to find the thrust and the force. The mass of the liquid displaced is given by :
[tex]m=dV[/tex]
V is volume
Weight of the displaced liquid
W = mg
[tex]W=dVg[/tex]
So,
[tex]W=dg\times \dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3\\\\W=2698.4\times 10\times \dfrac{4}{3}\times \pi \times (0.24)^3\\\\W=1562.53\ N[/tex]
So, the thrust and the force is 1562.53 N.
define motion also justify that rest and motion are related terms
Answer;
Motion: A body is said to be in motion if it changes its position with respect to its surroundings.
Explanation:
Rest and motion are the relative terms because they depend on the observer's frame of reference. So if two different observers are not at rest with respect to each other, then they too get different results when they observe the motion or rest of a body .
one example for each. Rest: If a body does not change its position with respect to its surroundings, the body is said to be at rest. ... Motion: A body is said to be in motion if it changes its position with respect to its surroundings.
A ray of light is projected into a glass tube that is surrounded by air. The glass has an index of refraction of 1.50 and air has an index of refraction of 1.00. At what minimum angle will light in the glass tube be totally reflected at the glass/air interface?
Answer:
θ = 41.8º
Explanation:
This is an internal total reflection exercise, the equation that describes this process is
sin θ = n₂ / n₁
where n₂ is the index of the incident medium and n₁ the other medium must be met n₁> n₂
θ = sin⁻¹ n₂ / n₁
let's calculate
θ = sin⁻¹ (1.00 / 1.50)
θ = 41.8º
