What is (a) the wavenumber and (b) the wavelength of the radiation used by an fm radio transmitter broadcasting at 92. 0 mhz?

1 answer:

5 0

The wavenumber and (b) the wavelength of the radiation used by an fm radio transmitter broadcasting at 92. 0 mhz will be 31.25 * $10^{2}$ $m^{-1}$ and 0.032 * $10^{2}$ m respectively

Forms of electromagnetic radiation like radio waves, light waves or infrared (heat) waves make characteristic patterns as they travel through space. Each wave has a certain shape and length. The distance between peaks (high points) is called wavelength.

Wavenumber, also called wave number, a unit of frequency, often used in atomic, molecular, and nuclear spectroscopy, equal to the true frequency divided by the speed of the wave and thus equal to the number of waves in a unit distance.

wavelength = ?

frequency = 92 m Hz = 92 * $10^{6}$ Hz

speed of light = 3 * $10^{8}$ m/s

speed of light = frequency * wavelength

wavelength = speed of light / frequency

= 3 * $10^{8}$ / 92 * $10^{6}$

= 0.032 * $10^{2}$ m

wavenumber = 1 / wavelength

= 1 / 0.032 * $10^{2}$ m

= 31.25 * $10^{2}$ $m^{-1}$

The electric field between square the plates of a parallel-plate capacitor has magnitude E. The potential across the plates is m

Helga [31]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field between the plates is half its initial value.

Explanation:

We know the electric field E = V/d where V = voltage applied and d = separation between plates.

Since V is constant and V = Ed,

So, E₁d₁ = E₂d₂ where E₁ = initial electric field at separation d₁, d₁ = initial separation of plates, E₂ = final electric field at separation d₂ and d₂ = final separation of plates.

So, E₂ = E₁d₁/d₂

Now, the distance between the plates is twice their original separation. Thus, d₂ = 2d₁

So, E₂ = E₁d₁/2d₁ = E₁/2

So, E₂ = E₁/2

Thus, the magnitude of the electric field between the plates is half its initial value.

Two Polaroids are aligned so that the initially unpolarized light passing through them is a maximum. At what angle should one of

steposvetlana [31]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the law of Malus which describes the change in the Intensity of Light when it crosses a polarized surface.

Mathematically the expression is given as

$I = I_0 cos^2\theta$

Where,

$I_0$ = Initial Intensity

I = Final Intensity after pass through the polarizer

$\theta$ = Angle between the polarizer and the light

Since it is sought to reduce the intensity by half the relationship between the two intensities will be given as

$\frac{I}{I_0} = \frac{1}{2}$

Using the Malus Law we have,

$I = I_0 cos^2\theta$

$cos^2\theta = \frac{I}{I_0}$

$cos^2\theta = \frac{1}{2}$

$\theta = cos^{-1}(\frac{1}{2})^2$

$\theta = 75.52\°$

Angle with respect to maximum is $90-75.52 = 14.48\°$

How does this diagram demonstrate the law of superposition?

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

well, as u can tell the top layer will always be the youngest layer aka the newest layer. The farther u go down the older the layers get. So the deeper u dig the farther back in time we see.
