What two things does an object's thermal energy depend on: ?

The least penetrating form of radiation is

When a vertical beam of light passes through a transparent medium, the rate at which its intensity i decreases is proportional to i(t), where t represents the thickness of the medium (in feet). in clear seawater, the intensity 3 feet below the surface is 25% of the initial intensity i0 of the incident beam. what is the intensity of the beam "10" feet below the surface? (give your answer in terms of i0. round any constants or coefficients to five decimal places.)

Atoaster oven has a resistive heating element. the average rate at which it dissipates energy as thermal energy is 1.00 \(\rm kw\). in the united states, emf amplitude in household circuits is \(\mathcal e_{\max}\) = 170 \({\rm \; v}\) and the \(\rm ac\) oscillation rate is 60 \(\rm hz\). part a what is the root-mean-square current through the heating element?
