Light, radiant heat (infrared radiation), X rays, and radio waves are all examples of traveling electromagnetic waves. Electroma

gnetic waves comprise combinations of electric and magnetic fields that are mutually compatible in the sense that the changes in one generate the other.The simplest form of a traveling electromagnetic wave is a plane wave. For a wave traveling in the x direction whose electric field is in the y direction, the electric and magnetic fields are given byE =E0sin(kxt)j^,B =B0sin(kxt)k^.This wave is linearly polarized in the y direction.In these formulas, it is useful to understand which variables are parameters that specify the nature of the wave. The variables E0 and B0 are the __________ of the electric and magnetic fields.(A) maxima(B) amplitudes(C) wavelengths(D) velocities

Answer:

B) Amplitudes

Explanation:

The equations of the electric and magnetic fields given are sinusoidal functions. he sine function varies between the value of -1 and 1 when is multiplied by a number A then varies from -A to A. In this case the variation goes from -E0 to E for the electric field and from -B0 to B0 for the magnetic field.  Because the amplitude is half of the distance between the highest and the lowest value of the sinusoidal function. In the electric field is: E0-(-E0)/2=E0 and in the magnetic field B0-(-B0)/2=B0.

a 10 kilogram steel ball is dropped from the top of a tower 100 meters high the kinetic energy of the ball just before it sttike
EleoNora [17]

Explanation:

If we assume negligible air resistance and heat loss, we can assume that all of the Gravitational potential energy of the ball will turn into Kinetic energy as it falls toward the ground.

Therefore our Kinetic energy = mgh = (10kg)(9.81N/kg)(100m) = 9,810J.

Two double bonds means that the total number of electrons being shared in the molecule is
Tema [17]

Answer:

9 terms. In carbon dioxide (CO2), there are two oxygen atoms for each carbon atom. Each oxygen atom forms a double bond with carbon, so the molecule is formed by two double bonds. Two double bonds means that the total number of electrons being shared in the molecule is.

Which one of the following energy conversion devices has the lowest energy efficiency?
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

A) incandescent ligth bulb, its efficiency is about 10%

Explanation:

The incandescent bulb, that is, the well-known focus with its warm light, was one of the most useful inventions of the 19th century although its use is currently considered very inefficient. These lamps waste between 80 and 90 percent of the total electricity they consume by turning it into heat. The metal filament thus heated and which is the central part of the bulb, only converts the remaining energy into light. Its service life ranges from 750 to 1,000 hours.

This is why they are used in ovens for food preparation, because of the large amount of heat they generate.

The steam boiler in a power plant depends on the fuel that it is using, but a coal-fired power plant with modern technology its efficiency is about 40%

Electric motor are around 85-92%

In order to better understand the concept of efficiency it is as if we pay 100 dollars of gasoline for our weekly use, but of that 100 dollars the car only uses 10 dollars to do that activity the rest of the money the 90 dollars were lost because of the inefficiencies of the vehicle.

A 180 lb crate is on the ground, and a strong rope is attached. You need to move it across the basement floor, which has a coeff
jekas [21]

Answer:

F = 505.13 N

Yes it is better to pull the rope rather than push it

Explanation:

Let the force is applied at an angle of 60 degree

so we will have net vertical force on the crate is given as

F_n + Fsin60 = mg

here we know

m = 180 lb

m = 81.65 kg

F_n = 81.65(9.81) - Fsin60

F_n = 801 - 0.866 F

now friction force on the crate is given as

F_x = \mu F_n

Fcos60 = 0.7(801 - 0.866 F)

0.5F + 0.61F = 560.7

F = 505.13 N

Yes it is better to pull the rope rather than push it
