Answer:

The advantage of the SI unit over CGS unit are:

S.I has broader base. It has seven base units and two supplementary units.
S.I is metric.
S.I is coherent.
S.I is rational, i.e. it gives one unit for one physical quantity .e g. for energy of any type i.e, mechanical or heat or electrical.There is only one unit Joule(J) but in M.K.S system unit for mechanical energy is joule.

Cell phone conversations are transmitted by high-frequency radio waves. Suppose the signal has wavelength 36.5 cm while travelin

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

f=8.219*10^{8}Hz

Explanation:

We are going to use the formula v=fλ

Where v= velocity of radio waves

f= frequency

λ= wavelength of wave

radio waves are electromagnetic waves and as such they have the speed of light which is 3*10^{8}m/s.

also when a wave travels from one medium to another, the wavelength changes while the frequency remains the same.

calculating for the frequency of the wave in air also gives us the frequency in the window glass.

f=\frac{v}{λ}

v=3*10^{8}m/s.

λ=36.5 cm = 36.5/100= 0.365m

f=\frac{3*10^{8}m/s.}{0.365m}

f=8.219*10^{8}Hz

A magnetic dipole with a dipole moment of magnitude 0.0243 J/T is released from rest in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 57

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

47.76°

Explanation:

Magnitude of dipole moment = 0.0243J/T

Magnetic Field = 57.5mT

kinetic energy = 0.458mJ

∇U = -∇K

Uf - Ui = -0.458mJ

Ui - Uf = 0.458mJ

(-μBcosθi) - (-μBcosθf) = 0.458mJ

rearranging the equation,

(μBcosθf) - (μBcosθi) = 0.458mJ

μB * (cosθf - cosθi) = 0.458mJ

θf is at 0° because the dipole moment is aligned with the magnetic field.

μB * (cos 0 - cos θi) = 0.458mJ

but cos 0 = 1

(0.0243 * 0.0575) (1 - cos θi) = 0.458*10⁻³

1 - cos θi = 0.458*10⁻³ / 1.397*10⁻³

1 - cos θi = 0.3278

collect like terms

cosθi = 0.6722

θ = cos⁻ 0.6722

θ = 47.76°

Two satellites revolve around the Earth. Satellite A has mass m and has an orbit of radius r. Satellite B has mass 6m and an orb

melomori [17]

Answer:

aaaaa

Explanation:

M = Mass of the Earth

m = Mass of satellite

r = Radius of satellite

G = Gravitational constant

$F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}$

$F=G\frac{M6m}{r_b^2}$

$G\frac{Mm}{r^2}=G\frac{M6m}{r_b^2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{r^2}=\frac{6}{r_b^2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{r_b^2}{r^2}=6\\\Rightarrow \frac{r_b}{r}=\sqrt{6}\\\Rightarrow r_b=2.44948r$

$r_b=2.44948r$

Pulling out of a dive, the pilot of an airplane guides his plane into a vertical circle with a radius of 600 m. At the bottom of

adoni [48]

Answer:

3311N

Explanation:

r = radius = 600m

V = speed = 150m/s

Mass = weight = 70kg

The weight of pilot when calculated due to circular motion

W = tv

Fv = mv²/r

Fv = 70x150²/600

Fv = 79x22500/600

= 15750000/600

= 2625N

Real Weight of the pilot = m x g

= 70 x 9.8

= 686N

The apparent Weight is calculated by

Mv²/r + mg

= 2625N + 686N

= 3311 N

Therefore the apparent Weight is 3311N

A wire from the power supply is carrying 120w of power and 24a of current. which color(s) of cable is the wire

Anna [14]

There is no picture given so I can't be really sure what color of the cable you're referring to. However, the only relationship I can think of when the power and the current is given would be: P=IV or P = I²R, where P is power, I is current, V is voltage and R is resistance. Solving both equations:

120 W = (24 A)(Voltage)
Voltage = 5 V

120 W = (24 A)²(R)
R = 0.2083 Ω

So, i think the cable would have specification of 5 Volts and 0.2083 ohms.
