Answer:

E=3.5(8.98*10^{6}x-2.69*10^{15}t)

B=1.17*10^{-8}(8.98*10^{6}x-2.69*10^{15}t)

Explanation:

The electric field equation of a electromagnetic wave is given by:

E=E_{max}(kx-\omega t) (1)

  • E(max) is the maximun value of E, it means the amplitude of the wave.
  • k is the wave number
  • ω is the angular frequency

We know that the wave length is λ = 700 nm and the peak electric field magnitude of 3.5 V/m, this value is correspond a E(max).

By definition:

k=\frac{2\pi}{\lambda}            

k=8.98*10^{6} [rad/m]      

And the relation between λ and f is:                

c=\lambda f

f=\frac{c}{\lambda}

f=\frac{3*10^{8}}{700*10^{-9}}

f=4.28*10^{14}

The angular frequency equation is:

\omega=2\pi f

\omega=2\pi*4.28*10^{14}

\omega=2.69*10^{15} [rad/s]

Therefore, the E equation, suing (1), will be:

E=3.5(8.98*10^{6}x-2.69*10^{15}t) (2)

For the magnetic field we have the next equation:

B=B_{max}(kx-\omega t) (3)

It is the same as E. Here we just need to find B(max).

We can use this equation:

E_{max}=cB_{max}

B_{max}=\frac{E_{max}}{c}=\frac{3.5}{3*10^{8}}

B_{max}=1.17*10^{-8}T

Putting this in (3), finally we will have:

B=1.17*10^{-8}(8.98*10^{6}x-2.69*10^{15}t) (4)

I hope it helps you!

A spring has a natural length of 0.5 m and was stretched by 0.02 m. if the spring had a resultant energy of 0.5 j what is the sp
Anna71 [15]

\textbf{2500 }\dfrac{\textbf{kg}}{\textbf{s}^{\textbf{2}}}

Explanation:

       Natural length of a spring is 0.5\text{ }m. The spring is streched by 0.02\text{ }m. The resultant energy of the spring is 0.5\text{ }J.

       The potential energy of an ideal spring with spring constant k and elongation x is given by \dfrac{1}{2}kx^{2}.

       So, in the current problem, the natural length of the spring is not required to find the spring constant k.

       \text{Potential Energy in the spring = }\dfrac{1}{2}kx^{2}\\0.5\text{ }J\text{ }=\text{ }\dfrac{1}{2}k(0.02\text{ }m)^{2}\\k\times0.0004\text{ }m^{2}\text{ }=\text{ }1\text{ }J\text{ }=\text{ }1\text{ }kg\frac{m^{2}}{s^{2}}\\k\text{ }=\text{ }\dfrac{1\text{ }kg\dfrac{m^{2}}{s^{2}}}{0.0004\text{ }m^{2}}\text{ }=\text{ }2500\text{ }\frac{kg}{s^{2}}

∴ The spring constant of the spring = 2500\text{ }\frac{kg}{s^{2}}

irina1246 [14]

Answer & Explanation:

Crashing into the asteroid would cause the satellite to slow down, stop, or reverse direction, because it is a force in the opposite direction to the satellite's motion. Whichever crash was a stronger force would cause it to change motion more. It takes a stronger force to change the velocity of a more massive object.
