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.

What is the speed of a truck that travels 10 i’m in 10 minutes ?

fiasKO [112]

10km/10min is a legitimate speed. So is meters/sec, km/hour (kph), etc.

Kph is very common for vehicles:

10 km/10 min (60 min/hr) = 60 kph

Find the net work W done on the particle by the external forces during the motion of the particle in terms of the initial and fi

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

$W=K_f-K_i$

Explanation:

The work done on a particle by external forces is defined as:

$W=\int\limits^{r_f}_{r_i} {F\cdot dr} \,$

According to Newton's second law $F=ma$ . Thus:

$W=\int\limits^{r_f}_{r_i}{ma\cdot dr} \,\\$

Acceleration is defined as the derivative of the speed with respect to time:

$W=m\int\limits^{r_f}_{r_i}{\frac{dv}{dt}\cdot dr} \,\\\\W=m\int\limits^{r_f}_{r_i}{dv \cdot \frac{dr}{dt}} \,$

Speed is defined as the derivative of the position with respect to time:

$W=m\int\limits^{v_f}_{v_i} v \cdot dv \,$

Kinetic energy is defined as $K=\frac{mv^2}{2}$ :

$W=m\frac{v_f^2}{2}-m\frac{v_i^2}{2}\\W=K_f-K_i$

A motorist driving at 25 meters/second decelerates to

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Work done = 0.5*m*[(v2)^2 - (v1)^2]
where m is mass,
v2 and v1 are the velocities.

Given that m = 1.50 x 10^3 kg, v2 = -15 m/s (decelerates), v1 = 25 kg,

Work done = 0.5 * 1.50 x 10^3 * ((-15)^2 - 25^2) = 3 x 10^5 joules

Just ignore the negative value for the final result because work is a scalar quantity.
