Which type of surface would most likely be the best reflector of electromagnetic energy?

1 answer:

5 0

<span>light colored and smooth surface would most likely be the best reflector of electromagnetic energy.Light, shiny surfaces are the best reflectors of radiation and they will allow the waves to reflect and bounce off rather than absorb. we can consider mirror as the example ,it will only reflect the light energy falling on them and it will not absorb. The darker coloured and rough surfaced substances will definitely absorb some amount of light falling on it. so light coloured smooth or shiny surfaced material would be the best reflector for electromagnetic energy.</span>

A car and a motorcycle start from rest at the same time on a straight track, but the motorcycle is 25.0 m behind the car. The ca

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

t = 8.45 sec

car distance d = 132.09 m

bike distance d = 157.08 m

Explanation:

GIVEN :

motorcycle is 25 m behind the car , therefore distance need to covered by bike to overtake car is 25+ d, when car reache distance d at time t

for car

by equation of motion

$d = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2$

u = 0 starting from rest

$d = \frac{1}{2}at^2$

$t^2 = \frac{2d}{a}$

for bike

$d+25 = 0 + \frac{1}{2}*4.40t^2$

$t^2= \frac{d+25}{2.20}$

equating time of both

$\frac{2d}{a} = \frac{d+25}{2.20}$

solving for d we get

d = 132 m

therefore t is $= \sqrt{\frac{2d}{a}}$

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2*132}{3.70}}$

t = 8.45 sec

each travelled in time 8.45 sec as

for car

$d = \frac{1}{2}*3.70 *8.45^2$

d = 132.09 m

fro bike

$d = \frac{1}{2}*4.40 *8.45^2$

d = 157.08 m

g A loop circuit has a resistance of R1 and a current of 2 A. The current is reduced to 1.4 A when an additional 2.2 Ω resistor

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

R1 = 5.13 Ω

Explanation:

From Ohm's law,

V = IR............... Equation 1

Where V = Voltage, I = current, R = resistance.

From the question,

I = 2 A, R = R1

Substitute into equation 1

V = 2R1................ Equation 2

When a resistance of 2.2Ω is added in series with R1,

assuming the voltage source remain constant

R = 2.2+R1, and I = 1.4 A

V = 1.4(2.2+R1)................. Equation 3

Substitute the value of V into equation 3

2R1 = 1.4(2.2+R1)

2R1 = 3.08+1.4R1

2R1-1.4R1 = 3.08

0.6R1 = 3.08

R1 = 3.08/0.6

R1 = 5.13 Ω

A flat coil of wire has an inductance of 40. 0 mh and a resistance of 6. 00 ω. It is connected to a 21. 2-v battery at the insta

MissTica

For a flat coil of wire has an inductance of 40. 0 mh and a resistance of 6. 00 ω, the rate of energy being delivered is mathematically given as

P= 53 W

<h3>What rate is energy being delivered by the battery?</h3>

Generally, the equation for the Battery power is mathematically given as

P = I (dt)V

Therefore

P= 2.50 A * 21.2V

P= 53 W

In conclusion, rate of energy being delivered

P= 53 W
