Microwaves have a higher frequency than radio waves, so why is it that they don't travel faster?

1 answer:

4 0

Answer: Energy requirement or consumption also increases as frequency goes higher. Hence, those low-frequency to mid-frequency waves are commonly referred to as radio waves and essentially, they have longer wavelengths. On the other hand, microwaves have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths.

Explanation: therefore that's why they don't travel faster.

The angle between the two force of magnitude 20N and 15N is 60 degrees (20N force being horizontal) determine the resultant in m

BARSIC [14]

A) The resultant force is 30.4 N at $25.3^{\circ}$

B) The resultant force is 18.7 N at $43.9^{\circ}$

Explanation:

In order to find the resultant of the two forces, we must resolve each force along the x- and y- direction, and then add the components along each direction to find the components of the resultant.

The two forces are:

$F_1 = 20 N$ at $0^{\circ}$ above x-axis

$F_2 = 15 N$ at $60^{\circ}$ above y-axis

Resolving each force:

$F_{1x}=F_1 cos \theta = (20)(cos 0)=20 N\\F_{1y}=F_1 sin \theta =(20)(sin 0)=0 N$

$F_{2x}=F_2 cos \theta = (15)(cos 60)=7.5 N\\F_{2y}=F_2 sin \theta =(15)(sin 60)=13.0 N$

So, the components of the resultant are:

$F_x = F_{1x}+F_{2x}=20+7.5 = 27.5 N\\F_y = F_{1y}+F_{2y}=0+13.0=13.0 N$

And the magnitude of the resultant is:

$F=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}=\sqrt{27.5^2+13.0^2}=30.4 N$

And the direction is:

$\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{F_y}{F_x})=tan^{-1}(\frac{13.0}{27.5})=25.3^{\circ}$

In this case, the 15 N is applied in the opposite direction to the 20 N force. Therefore we need to re-calculate its components, keeping in mind that the angle of the 15 N force this time is

$\theta=180^{\circ}-60^{\circ}=120^{\circ}$

So we have:

$F_{2x}=F_2 cos \theta = (15)(cos 120)=-7.5 N\\F_{2y}=F_2 sin \theta =(15)(sin 120)=13.0 N$

So, the components of the resultant this time are:

$F_x = F_{1x}+F_{2x}=20-7.5 = 12.5 N\\F_y = F_{1y}+F_{2y}=0+13.0=13.0 N$

And the magnitude is:

$F=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}=\sqrt{13.5^2+13.0^2}=18.7 N$

And the direction is:

$\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{F_y}{F_x})=tan^{-1}(\frac{13.0}{13.5})=43.9^{\circ}$

A 30-g bullet is fired with a horizontal velocity of 450 m/s and becomes embedded in block B, which has a mass of 3 kg. After th

Zolol [24]

Answer:

(a) The velocity of the bullet and B after the first impact is 4.4554 m/s.

(b) The velocity of the carrier is 0.40872 m/s.

Explanation:

(a) To solve the question, we apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum as follows.

we note that the distance between B and C is 0.5 m

Then we have

Sum of initial momentum = Sum of final momentum

0.03 kg × 450 m/s = (0.03 kg + 3 kg) × v₂

Therefore v₂ = (13.5 kg·m/s)÷(3.03 kg) = 4.4554 m/s

The velocity of the bullet and B after the first impact = 4.4554 m/s

(b) The velocity of the carrier is given as follows

Therefore from the conservation of linear momentum we also have

(m₁ + m₂)×v₂ = (m₁ + m₂ + m₃)×v₃

Where:

m₃ = Mass of the carrier = 30 kg

Therefore

(3.03 kg)×(4.4554 m/s) = (3.03 kg+30 kg) × v₃

v₃ = (13.5 kg·m/s)÷ (33.03 kg) = 0.40872 m/s

The velocity of the carrier = 0.40872 m/s.
