- A dish antenna having a diameter of 20.0 m receives (at normal incidence) a radio signal from a distant source as shown in Figure P24.63. The radio signal is a continuous sinusoidal wave with amplitude Emax = 0.200 V/m. Assume the antenna absorbs all the radiation that falls on the dish.

Figure P24.63arrow_forwardYou are working at NASA, in a division that is studying the possibility of rotating small spacecraft using radiation pressure from the Sun. You have built a scale model of a spacecraft as shown in Figure P33.47. The central body is a spherical shell with mass m = 0.500 kg and radius R = 15.0 cm. The thin rod extending from each side of the sphere is of mass mr = 50.0 g and of total length = 1.00 m. At each end of the rod arc circular plates of mass mp = 10.0 g and radius rp = 2.00 cm, with the center of each plate located at the end of the rod. One plate is perfectly reflecting and the other is perfectly absorbing. The initial configuration of this model is that it is at rest, mounted on a vertical axle with very low friction. To begin the simulation, you expose the model to sunlight of intensity Is = 1 000 W/m2, directed perpendicularly to the plates, for a time interval of t = 2.0 min. The sunlight is then removed from the model. Determine the angular velocity with which the model now rotates about the axle.
