An apple is held completely submerged just below the surface of water in a container. The apple is then moved to a deeper point

in the water. Compared with the force needed to hold the apple just below the surface, what is the force needed to hold it at the deeper point?
Physics

Answer:

Explanation:

When the apple is held submerged in water , it experiences a buoyant force due to which it floats in water . One has to apply downward force to keep it submerged. The lower the buoyant force , lower the force needed to submerge it in water.

When apple is held at much deeper point , it experience greater pressure due to column of water around it . So its size or its volume decreases . But its weight remains the same . Due to less volume , buoyant force also decreases ( buoyant force is equal to weight of displaced volume of water. )

Due to buoyant force becoming less , force needed on apple  in downward direction will also be less.

What will be the length of a half wavelength dipole antenna operating at 10GHz?
iVinArrow [24]

Given :

Frequency , \nu = 10\ GHz .

To Find :

The length of a half wavelength dipole .

Solution :

Now , wavelength is given by :

\lambda=\dfrac{c}{\nu}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8\ m/s}{10\ GHz}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{10\times 10^9}\ m\\\\\lambda=0.03\ m\\\\\lambda=3 \ cm

Now , half length is given by :

L=\dfrac{\lambda}{2}\\\\L=\dfrac{3}{2}\ cm\\\\L=1.5 \ cm

Therefore , length of a half wavelength dipole is 1.5 cm .

Hence , this is the required solution .

Hazel recently read an article that claimed that radio waves can cause electron displacement. Based on
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

Based on  the passage, the article's claim is not true.  Therefore, the answer is:

No, because radio waves  have energies that are too  low to fall in the ionizing  range.

Explanation:

Radio waves are generally known as forms of non-ionizing radiation.  This means that they do not have enough energy, unlike microwaves, to separate electrons from atoms or molecules, thereby ionizing them.  They cannot cause electron displacement, as claimed in the article.  Therefore, they cannot break chemical bonds, which can cause chemical reactions or DNA damage. As non-ionizing radiation, radio waves occur at lower frequencies in the electromagnetic spectrum.

A piano tuner strikes a tuning fork at the same time he strikes a piano key with a note of a similar pitch. If he hears 3 beats
DaniilM [7]
The frequency produced by the string could be 437 Hz or it could be 443 Hz.

The frequency of the beats ... 3 Hz ... tells the piano tuner that
the difference between the fork and string frequencies is 3 Hz,
but it doesn't tell her which one is higher or lower.
