Answer:
Intensity
Step-by-step explanation:
In physics, intensity of radiant energy is the power transferred per unit area, where the area is measured on the plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the energy.
You use lots and lots of math.
Answer:
y=-2x
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) Yes all six trig functions exist for this point in quadrant III. The only time you'll run into problems is when either x = 0 or y = 0, due to division by zero errors. For instance, if x = 0, then tan(t) = sin(t)/cos(t) will have cos(t) = 0, as x = cos(t). you cannot have zero in the denominator. Since neither coordinate is zero, we don't have such problems.

(b) The following functions are positive in quadrant III:
tangent, cotangent
The following functions are negative in quadrant III
cosine, sine, secant, cosecant
A short explanation is that x = cos(t) and y = sin(t). The x and y coordinates are negative in quadrant III, so both sine and cosine are negative. Their reciprocal functions secant and cosecant are negative here as well. Combining sine and cosine to get tan = sin/cos, we see that the negatives cancel which is why tangent is positive here. Cotangent is also positive for similar reasons.
