Communication with submerged submarines via radio waves is difficult because seawater is conductive and absorbselectromagnetic wa

ves. Penetration into the ocean is greater at longer wavelengths, so the United States has radioinstallations that transmit at 76 Hz for submarine communications. What is the approximate wavelength of those extremelylow-frequency waves?A. 500 kmB. 1000 kmC. 2000 kmD. 4000 km

Answer:

D. 4000 km

Explanation:

f = Frequency of wave that is being transmitted = 76 Hz

\lambda = Wavelength of wave that is being transmitted

v = The velocity of electromagnetic waves through air = 3\times 10^8\ m/s

Velocity of a wave is given by

v=f\lambda\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{v}{f}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{3\times 10^8}{76}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=3947368.42105\ m=3947.36842105 km\approx 4000\ km

Hence, the approximate wavelength of the waves is 4000 km

what are the variables in an experiment that tests the distance honey flows at different temperatures? identify the independent
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

The distance that the honey flowed would be the dependent or outcome variable and the temperature of the honey would be the independent variable.

The dependent variable is what is being measured in an experiment. You can remember it by thinking “it depends on what you’re changing.”

The independent variable in an experiment is what is being changed. You can remember this by thinking “the Independent variable is what I as the scientist change.”

The mean time between collisions for electrons in room temperature copper is 2.5 x 10-14 s. What is the electron current in a 2
Darya [45]

Answer:

1.87 A

Explanation:

τ = mean time between collisions for electrons = 2.5 x 10⁻¹⁴ s

d = diameter of copper wire = 2 mm = 2 x 10⁻³ m

Area of cross-section of copper wire is given as

A = (0.25) πd²

A = (0.25) (3.14) (2 x 10⁻³)²

A = 3.14 x 10⁻⁶ m²

E = magnitude of electric field = 0.01 V/m

e = magnitude of charge on electron = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

m = mass of electron = 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg

n = number density of free electrons in copper = 8.47 x 10²² cm⁻³ = 8.47 x 10²⁸ m⁻³

i = magnitude of current

magnitude of current is given as

i = \frac{Ane^{2}\tau E}{m}

i = \frac{(3.14\times 10^{-6})(8.47\times 10^{28})(1.6\times 10^{-19})^{2}(2.5\times 10^{-14}) (0.01)}{(9.1\times 10^{-31})}

i  = 1.87 A

What is an Amplitude
dangina [55]

Amplitude is a measurement of the magnitude of displacement (or maximum disturbance) of a medium from its resting state, as diagramed in the peak deviation example below (it can also be a measurement of an electrical signal's increased or decreased strength above or below a nominal state).
