Radio waves travel at a speed of 1.7 times 10^8 m/s through ice. A radio wave pulse sent into the Antarctic ice reflects off the

rock at the bottom and returns to the surface in 32.9 times 10^-6 s. Part A How deep is the ice? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

The values with (1/2)(9.8 m/s2) (4 - X)^2 = (1.7 × 10^8 m/s) (X) —> We discover with the calculator X = 4.40 × 10^-7. The depth of the ice is then calculated by multiplying by the speed 74.8 m. Through ice, radio waves move at a speed of 1.7 x 108 m/s.

What is radio waves?

A radio wave pulse that is delivered into the Antarctic ice returns after reflecting off the bottom rock. A radio wave pulse that is transmitted into the Antarctic ice bounces off the subsurface rock and resurfaces. ice in Antarctica Through ice, radio waves move at a speed of 1.7 108 m/s. The rock reflects the radio wave pulse that was transmitted into the Antarctic ice. The amount of time that passed between the signal being sent and being received by the earth station.

krok68 [10]

Answer:

The speed of the spider is v = (2g*L*(1-cosθ))^1/2

Explanation:

using the energy conservation equation we have to:

Ek1 + Ep1 = Ek2 + Ep2

where

Ek1 = kinetic energy = 0

Ep1 = potential energy = m*g*L*cosθ

Ek2 = (m*v^2)/2

Ep2 = m*g*L

Replacing, we have:

0 - m*g*L*cosθ = (m*v^2)/2 - m*g*L

(m*v^2)/2 = m*g*L*(1-cosθ)

v^2 = 2g*L*(1-cosθ)

v = (2g*L*(1-cosθ))^1/2

How many electrons have been removed from a positively charged electroscope if it has a net charge of 6x10-11?
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

<h3>Because one Coulomb of charge is an abnormally large quantity of charge, the units of microCoulombs (µC) or nanoCoulombs (nC) are more commonly used as the unit of measurement of charge. To illustrate the magnitude of 1 Coulomb, an object would need an excess of 6.25 x 1018 electrons to have a total charge of -1 C.</h3>

What did Thomson contribute to the model of atom
Ganezh [65]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

<em>Electrons </em>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Thomson contributed to the model of an atom by discovery of </u></em><em><u>electrons </u></em><em><u>and thus proving the existence of sub-atomic particles in an atom. </u></em>
  • <u><em>Thomson used cathode ray tube, and demonstrated that cathode rays were negatively charged.</em></u> According to his model normally known as the plum pudding in which he stated that an atom is composed of electrons as subatomic particles that are surrounded by positive charges to balance the electrons.

Operators must slow to no wake speed when within what distance of a u.s. naval vessel?
Alex Ar [27]
Recreational boaters have a role in keeping the waterways safe and secure. Violators of the restrictions can expect a quick and severe response. The operator should not approach within yards and slow to minimum speed within 500 yards of any of united states naval vessel. If the vessel need to pass within 100 yards of a united states naval vessel for safe passage, must contact the united states naval vessel or the united states coast guard escort vessel on VHF-FM channel 16. In addition,

• The operator must perceive and avoid all security areas.

• Avoid commercial port operation areas particularly those that include military cruise line or petroleum amenities. 

• The operator must perceive and avoid other controlled areas near dams, power plants, etc. 

• The operator of the vessel must not discontinue or anchor underneath bridges or in the channel.
