In a vacuum all electromagnetic waves have the same?

1 answer:

7 0

Electromagnetic waves do not need a material medium for its movement. They all travel at the same speed in a vacuum

What is Electromagnetic waves ?

Electromagnetic waves are those that do not require a material medium for their propagation. They are transverse waves which made up of electric and magnetic waves

In a vacuum all electromagnetic waves have the same speed. That is, all types of electromagnetic waves travel at the same speed in a vacuum which is equal to 299792458 m/s

Examples are;

radio wave

infrared

ultraviolet

x - rays

Gamma ray

visible light

microwave

Therefore, in a vacuum, all electromagnetic waves have the same speed.

169.491525424 m/s

Explanation:

x Denotes position

t Denotes time

Average velocity is given by

$v_a=\dfrac{x_2-x_1}{t_2}\\\Rightarrow v_a=\dfrac{1000-63}{4.75}\\\Rightarrow v_a=197.263157895\ m/s$

The average velocity is 197.263157895 m/s

$v_a=\dfrac{x_2-x_1}{t_2}\\\Rightarrow v_a=\dfrac{1000-0}{5.9}\\\Rightarrow v_a=169.491525424\ m/s$

The average velocity is 169.491525424 m/s

Given vectors D (3.00 m, 315 degrees wrt x-axis) and E (4.50 m, 53.0 degrees wrt x-axis), find the resultant R= D + E. (a) Write

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

R = ( 4.831 m , 1.469 m )

Magnitude of R = 5.049 m

Direction of R relative to the x axis= 16°54'33'

Explanation:

Knowing the magnitude and directions relative to the x axis, we can find the Cartesian representation of the vectors using the formula

$\vec{A}= | \vec{A} | \ ( \ cos(\theta) \ , \ sin (\theta) \ )$

where $| \vec{A} |$ its the magnitude and θ.

So, for our vectors, we will have:

$\vec{D}= 3.00 m \ ( \ cos(315) \ , \ sin (315) \ )$

$\vec{D}= ( 2.121 m , -2.121 m )$

and

$\vec{E}= 4.50 m \ ( \ cos(53.0) \ , \ sin (53.0) \ )$

$\vec{E}= ( 2.71 m , 3.59 m )$

Now, we can take the sum of the vectors

$\vec{R} = \vec{D} + \vec{E}$

$\vec{R} = ( 2.121 \ m , -2.121 \ m ) + ( 2.71 \ m , 3.59 \ m )$

$\vec{R} = ( 2.121 \ m + 2.71 \ m , -2.121 \ m + 3.59 \ m )$

$\vec{R} = ( 4.831 \ m , 1.469 \ m )$

This is R in Cartesian representation, now, to find the magnitude we can use the Pythagorean theorem

$|\vec{R}| = \sqrt{R_x^2 + R_y^2}$

$|\vec{R}| = \sqrt{(4.831 m)^2 + (1.469 m)^2}$

$|\vec{R}| = \sqrt{23.338 m^2 + 2.158 m^2}$

$|\vec{R}| = \sqrt{25.496 m^2}$

$|\vec{R}| = 5.049 m$

To find the direction, we can use

$\theta = arctan(\frac{R_y}{R_x})$

$\theta = arctan(\frac{1.469 \ m}{4.831 \ m})$

$\theta = arctan(0.304)$

$\theta = 16\°54'33''$

As we are in the first quadrant, this is relative to the x axis.

A car is traveling at a speed of 20m/s and has a mass of 1200kg how much kinetic energy does it have

Oxana [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for Kinetic Energy is

$KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$ . Filling in:

$KE=\frac{1}{2}(1200)(20)^2$ It looks like we only need 1 significant digit here but I'll give you 2 and you can round how you want.

KE = 2.4 × 10⁵ J

A speedboat initially at rest accelerates uniformly at 4.0 m/s (squared) for 7.0 s. How fast is the boat moving after 7.0 s?

zaharov [31]

Well if the boat initially at rest accelerates at uniformly at 4.0 m/s (squared) then it would be best to muitlply it so 4.0 squared equals 2 by multiplying that by 7.0 your answer would be 14 s
