Answer:

The answer is B. Light

Explanation:

The sense of sight is one of the main sensory abilities of humans and many other animals, while the term light is considered as part of the radiation field known as the electromagnetic spectrum. Light is the part of electromagnetic radiation that can be perceived by the human eye; what is known as vision, the ability to interpret the environment thanks to the rays of light that reach the eye.

An AM radio station broadcasts isotropically (equally in all directions) with an average power of 3.40 kW. A receiving antenna 6

lara [203]

To solve the problem we will apply the concepts related to the Intensity as a function of the power and the area, as well as the electric field as a function of the current, the speed of light and the permeability in free space, as shown below.

The intensity of the wave at the receiver is

$I = \frac{P_{avg}}{A}$

$I = \frac{P_{avg}}{4\pi r^2}$

$I = \frac{3.4*10^3}{4\pi(4*1609.34)^2} \rightarrow 1mile = 1609.3m$

$I = 6.529*10^{-6}W/m^2$

The amplitude of electric field at the receiver is

$I = \frac{E_{max}^2}{2\mu_0 c}$

$E_{max}= \sqrt{2I\mu_0 c}$

The amplitude of induced emf by this signal between the ends of the receiving antenna is

$\epsilon_{max} = E_{max} d$

$\epsilon_{max} = \sqrt{2I \mu_0 cd}$

Here,

I = Current

$\mu_0$ = Permeability at free space

c = Light speed

d = Distance

Replacing,

$\epsilon_{max} = \sqrt{2(6.529*10^{-6})(4\pi*10^{-7})(3*10^{8})(60.0*10^{-2})}$

$\epsilon_{max} = 0.05434V$

Thus, the amplitude of induced emf by this signal between the ends of the receiving antenna is 0.0543V

A particle with mass 1.81×10−3 kg and a charge of 1.22×10−8 C has, at a given instant, a velocity v⃗ =(3.00×104m/s)j^. What are

slava [35]

Answer:

The magnitude and direction of the acceleration of the particle is $a= 0.3296\ \hat{k}\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass $m = 1.81\times10^{-3}\ kg$

Velocity $v = (3.00\times10^{4}\ m/s)j$

Charge $q = 1.22\times10^{-8}\ C$

Magnetic field $B= (1.63\hat{i}+0.980\hat{j})\ T$

We need to calculate the acceleration of the particle

Formula of the acceleration is defined as

$F = ma=q(v\times B)$

$a =\dfrac{q(v\times B)}{m}$

We need to calculate the value of $v\times B$

$v\times B=(3.00\times10^{4}\ m/s)j\times(1.63\hat{i}+0.980\hat{j})$

$v\times B=4.89\times10^{4}$

Now, put the all values into the acceleration 's formula

$a =\dfrac{1.22\times10^{-8}\times(-4.89\times10^{4}\hat{k})}{1.81\times10^{-3}}$

$a= -0.3296\ \hat{k}\ m/s^2$

Negative sign shows the opposite direction.

Hence, The magnitude and direction of the acceleration of the particle is $a= 0.3296\ \hat{k}\ m/s^2$

One of the important waste products of photosynthesis is oxygen gas. Where does this oxygen gas come from?

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

End product of photosynthesis.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a process that plants undergo in the manufacture of their food. This is done in the presence of sunlight which is trapped by their coloring pigment called chlorophyll and reactants such as Carbon dioxide and Water.

6CO2+6H2O= C6H12O6+ 6O2

The oxygen gas which is a waste product of photosynthesis is released into the atmosphere and used by animals in respiration.
