An excited hydrogen atom releases an electromagnetic wave to return to its normal state. You use your futuristic dual electric/m

agnetic field tester on the electromagnetic wave to find the directions of the electric field and magnetic field. Your device tells you that the electric field is pointing in the positive y direction and the magnetic field is pointing in the negative x direction. In which direction does the released electromagnetic wave travel?

Answer:

Explanation:

Direction of velocity of electromagnetic wave is given by the formula

E = E j ( vector form )

B = - Bi ( vector form )

Direction of velocity = direction of vector E X B

= E X B

= E j x -Bi

= - EB -k

v = EBk

So the direction of velocity will be along z direction.

A 1150 kg car is on a 8.70° hill. using x-y axis tilted down the plane, what is the x-component of the weight?
Fed [463]
I assume the x-y axis are tilted such that the x-axis is parallel to the surface of the hill while the y-axis is perpendicular to it.

In this case, the x-component of the weight is given by:
W_x =mg \sin \theta
where
m is the mass of the car
g is the acceleration of gravity
\theta is the angle of the hill

Substituting numbers into the formula, we find
W_x=(1150 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(\sin 8.70^{\circ})=1706 N

Which statement correctly describes the relationship between frequency and wavelength?
Len [333]
The relationship between the frequency and wavelength of a wave is given by the equation:

v=λf, where v is the velocity of the wave, λ is the wavelength and f is the frequency. 

If we divide the equation by f we get:

λ=v/f

From here we see that the wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional. So as the frequency increases the wavelength decreases. 

So the second statement is true: As the frequency of a wave increases, the shorter the wavelength is.

Describe how electromagnetic radiation can ionise an atom. 2 marks
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Ionizing radiation is radiation with enough energy so that during an interaction with an atom, it can remove tightly bound electrons from the orbit of an atom, causing the atom to become charged or ionized. ... Forms of electromagnetic radiation.

un serbatoio d'acqua di forma cilindrica è riempito con acqua dolce fino a un livello di 6,40 m calcola la pressione dell'acqua
ohaa [14]
Per calcolare la pressione a una certa profondità, devi considerare la legge di Stevino:
<span>p = ρ · g · h

Tenendo conto che:
g = 9,81 m/s²
ρ = 1000 kg/m³

Troviamo:
p(h</span>₁) = ρ · g · h₁ = 1000 · 9,81 · 4,50 = 44145 Pa
p(h₂) = ρ · g · h₂ = 1000 · 9,81 · 5,50 = 53955 Pa

What is the instantaneous velocity v of the particle at t=10.0s?
Alexeev081 [22]

Instantaneous velocity is defined at a specific value of time t. It can never be observed or measure. To know a velocity, one must know its distance and velocity. It is represented by the equation velocity is equal to delta distance over delta time. The problem above lacks data.
