Chapter 32, Problem 32.37P

The sun emits energy in the form of electromagnetic waves at a rate of 3.9 × 1026 W. This energy is produced by nuclear reactions deep in the sun’s interior. (a) Find the intensity of electromagnetic radiation and the radiation pressure on an absorbing object at the surface of the sun (radius r = R = 6.96 × 105 km) and at r = R/2, in the sun’s interior. Ignore any scattering of the waves as they move radially outward from the center of the sun. Compare to the values given in Section 32.4 for sunlight just before it enters the earth’s atmosphere. (b) The gas pressure at the sun’s surface is about 1.0 × 104 Pa; at r = R/2, the gas pressure is calculated from solar models to be about 4.7 × 1013 Pa. Comparing with your results in part (a), would you expect that radiation pressure is an important factor in determining the structure of the sun? Why or why not?

Problem Eight. A snowmobile is originally at the point with position vector 31.1 m at 95.5° counterclockwise from the x-axis, moving with velocity 4.89 m/s at 40.0°. It moves with constant acceleration 1.73 m/s² at 200°. After 5.00 s have elapsed, find the following. 9.) The velocity vector in m/s. (A)=-4.38+0.185ĵ (D) = 0.185 +4.38ĵ (B)=0.1851-4.38ĵ (E) = 4.38 +0.185ĵ (C) v=-0.1851-4.38ĵ (A)=-39.3-4.30ĵ 10.) The final position vector in meters. (B)=39.3-4.30ĵ (C) = -4.61 +39.3ĵ (D) = 39.31 +4.30ĵ (E) = 4.30 +39.3ĵ
Problem Seven. A football receiver running straight downfield at 5.60 m/s is 11.5 m in front of the quarterback when a pass is thrown downfield at an angle of 35.0° above the horizon. 8.) If the receiver never changes speed and the ball is caught at the same height from which it was thrown, find the distance between the quarterback and the receiver when the catch is made. (A) 21.3 (B) 17.8 (C) 18.8 (D) 19.9 (E) 67.5
