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

What is the maximum negative displacement a dog could have if it started its motion at +3 m?
raketka [301]

Answer:

- 3 meter

Explanation:

A dog has started motion from +3 meter. ...(Given)

∴ maximum positive distance = + 3 meter

Magnitude of distance = 3

Maximum negative distance = (-) (magnitude of distance)

Maximum negative distance = (-) (3)

Maximum negative distance = -3 meter

Hence, maximum negative distance is -3 meter.

A force of 200 N is applied on small piston of a pascal press. What would be the
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

The force applied on the big piston is 1306.67 N

Explanation:

Given;

force applied on small piston, F₁ = 200 N

diameter of the small piston, d₁ = 4.37 cm

radius of the small piston, r₁ = d₁/2 = 2.185 cm

Area of the small piston, A₁ = πr₁² = π(2.185 cm)² = 15 cm²

Area of the big piston, A₂ = 98 cm²

The pressure of the piston is given by;

P = \frac{F}{A} \\\\\frac{F_1}{A_1} = \frac{F_2}{A_2}\\\\ F_2 = \frac{F_1A_2}{A_1}

Where;

F₂ is the force on big piston

F_2 = \frac{200*98}{15} \\\\F_2 = 1306.67 \ N

Therefore, the force applied on the big piston is 1306.67 N

A closely wound rectangular coil of 80 turns has dimensions 25.0 \rm cm by 40.0 \rm cm. The plane of the coil is rotated from a
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

88.3

Explanation:

Emf in a rotating coil is given by rate of change of flux:

E= dФ/dt=(NABcos∅)/ dt

N: number of turns in the coil= 80

A: area of the coil= 0.25×0.40= 0.1

B: magnetic field strength= 1.1

Ф: angle of rotation= 90- 37= 53

dt= 0.06s

E= (80 × 0.4× 0.25×1.10 × cos53)/0.06= 88.3V

A 1.47-newton baseball is dropped from a height of 10.0 meters and falls through the air to the ground. The kinetic energy of th
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

The maximum amount of mechanical energy converted to internal energy during the fall is 26.7 joules

Explanation:

Potential Energy (PE) = weight of baseball × height = 1.47N × 10m = 14.7Nm = 14.7 joules

Kinetic Energy (KE) = 12 joules

Maximum amount of mechanical energy converted to internal energy during the fall = PE + KE = 14.7 joules + 12 joules = 26.7 joules
