At the Earth's surface, warm air expands and rises, creating
what is known as an area of low pressure.
Cold air is dense and sinks to the surface to create what is
known as an area of high pressure.</span>
Below are the choices that can be found elsewhere:
A. (4.9 × 10-14 newtons) · tan(30°)
<span>B. (4.9 × 10-14 newtons) · sin(30°) </span>
<span>C. (4.9 × 10-14 newtons) · cos(30°) </span>
<span>D. (4.9 × 10-14 newtons) · arctan(30°) </span>
<span>E. (4.9 × 10-14 newtons) · arccos(30°)

<span>Force is proportional to the angle made by the velocity with respect to the magnetic field. It is maximum when velocity is perpendicular to the magnetic field and minimum when the velocity is parallel to the magnetic field. It is proportional to sin of the angle. In this problem it will be proportional to sin(30)</span>
A) 750 m
First of all, let's find the wavelength of the microwave. We have
is the frequency
is the speed of light
So the wavelength of the beam is
Now we can use the formula of the single-slit diffraction to find the radius of aperture of the beam:
where
m = 1 since we are interested only in the central fringe
D = 30 km = 30,000 m
a = 2.0 m is the aperture of the antenna (which corresponds to the width of the slit)
Substituting, we find
and so, the diameter is
B) 0.23 W/m^2
First we calculate the area of the surface of the microwave at a distance of 30 km. Since the diameter of the circle is 750 m, the radius is
So the area is
And since the power is
The average intensity is
Larger molecules will move slower and smaller molecules will move faster. Did this answer your question?
