Which two types of waves can transmit energy through a vacuum?

1 answer:

7 0

Given what we know, we can confirm that amongst the wave types mentioned both X-rays and radio waves are able to transmit energy through a vacuum.

<h3>How can these waves propagate through a vacuum?</h3>

This is due to the fact that unlike sound, water, and seismic waves that transmit energy through air, water, or the earth, the waves mentioned above, those being radio and x-rays, do not need a medium through which to propagate. This allows them to exist and transmit energy even in a vacuum such as outer space, which is corroborated by their existence in space.

Therefore, we can confirm that amongst the wave types mentioned both X-rays and radio waves are able to transmit energy through a vacuum.

What is the magnitude of the kinetic frictional force

Effectus [21]

The magnitude of the kinetic friction force, ƒk, on an object is. Where μk is called the kinetic friction coefficient and |FN| is the magnitude of the normal force of the surface on the sliding object. The kinetic friction coefficient is entirely determined by the materials of the sliding surfaces. hope it helps

A watermelon is dropped off of a 50 ft bridge, and it explodes upon impact with the ground. How fast was it traveling in mph upo

Drupady [299]

Answer: 56.72 ft/s

Explanation:

Ok, initially we only have potential energy, that is equal to:

U =m*g*h

where g is the gravitational acceleration, m the mass and h the height.

h = 50ft and g = 32.17 ft/s^2

when the watermelon is near the ground, all the potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy, and the kinetic energy can be written as:

K = (1/2)*m*v^2

where v is the velocity.

Then we have:

K = U

m*g*h = (m/2)*v^2

we solve it for v.

v = √(2g*h) = √(2*32.17*50) ft/s = 56.72 ft/s

In an electric field, 0.90 joule of work is required to bring 0.45 coulomb of charge from point a to point

jarptica [38.1K]

The difference in electric potential energy between the two points is
$\Delta U = q \Delta V$
where q is the magnitude of the charge and $\Delta V$ is the electric potential difference.

But for energy conservation, the difference in electric potential energy $\Delta U$ between the two points is equal to the work done to move the charge between A and B:
$W=\Delta U$
so we have
$W=q \Delta V$

and by substituting the numbers of the problem, we find the value of $\Delta V$ :
$\Delta V = \frac{W}{q}= \frac{0.90 J}{0.45 C}=2 V$

A horizontal pipe of diameter 1.03m has a smooth constriction to a section of diameter 0.618 m. The density of oil flowing in th

vodka [1.7K]

Velocity of the oil in the pipe: 0.76 m/s, in the constricted section: 5.87 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using Bernoulli's equation:

$p_1 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 = p_2 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2$ (1)

where

$p_1 = 7340 N/m^2$ is the pressure in the pipe

$p_2 = 5505 N/m^2$ is the pressure in the constricted section

$\rho = 821 kg/m^3$ is the density of the oil

$v_1$ is the velocity of the oil in the pipe

$v_2$ is the velocity of the oil in the constricted section

Also, according to the continuity equation,

$A_1 v_1 = A_2 v_2$

where

$A_1 = \pi r_1^2$ is the cross-sectional area of the pipe, with

$r_1 = \frac{1.03}{2}=0.515 m$ is the radius

$A_2 = \pi r_2^2$ is the cross-sectional area of the constricted section, with

$r_2=\frac{0.618}{2}=0.309 m$ is the radius

So the equation becomes

$r_1^2 v_1 = r_2^2 v_2$

So we can write

$v_2=\frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}v_1$

Substituting into eq.(1),

$p_1 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 = p_2 + \frac{1}{2}\rho (\frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}v_1)^2$

And solving the equation for $v_1$ :

$p_1 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 = p_2 + \frac{1}{2}\rho \frac{r_1^4}{r_2^4}v_1^2\\v_1=\sqrt{\frac{p_2-p_1}{\frac{1}{2}\rho-\frac{1}{2}\rho \frac{r_1^4}{r_2^4}}}=0.76 m/s$

And the velocity in the constricted section is

$v_2=\frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}v_1=5.87 m/s$
