Interference is an example of which aspect of electromagnetic radiation
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

We experience interference while listening to the radio. A radio station works by sending and receiving radio waves. Since the radio waves are being interfered with other waves which must have a wave nature.

The interference is the net result of two individual waves. It can be constructive or destructive interference and is the property of waves and not particles.

This interference is an example of electromagnetic radiation. Thus we experience wave behavior of electromagnetic radiation in our daily communications.

In a local bar, a customer slides an empty beer mug down the counter for a refill. The height of the counter is 1.42 m. The mug
telo118 [61]

Answer:

a) V_{x}=3.72m/s, b) ∠=-54.83°

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must start with a drawing of the situation, this will help us visualize the problem better. (See picture attached).

a)

Now, the idea is that the beer mug has a horizontal speed and no vertical speed at initial conditions. So knowing this, we can start finding the initial velocity of the mug.

In order to do so, we need to find the time it takes for the mug to reach the ground. We can find it by using the following equation:

y=y_{0}+V_{y0}t+\frac{1}{2}a_{y}t^{2}

We can see from the drawing that y and the initial velocity in y are zero, so we can simplify our formula:

0=y_{0}+\frac{1}{2}a_{y}t^{2}

so we can solve for t, so we get:

t=\sqrt{\frac{-(2)y_{0}}{a}}

so now we can substitute the known values, so we get:

t=\sqrt{\frac{-(2)(1.42)}{-9.8}}

which yields:

t=0.538s

So we can use this value to find the velocity in x:

V_{x}=\frac{x}{t}

When substituting we get:

V_{x}=\frac{2m}{0.538s}

which yields:

V_{x}=3.72m/s

b)

In order to solve part b, we need to find the y-component of the velocity, for which we can use the following formula:

\Delta y=\frac{V_{f}^{2}-V_{0}^{2}}{2a}

We know that V_{0} is zero, so we can simplify the expression:

\Delta y=\frac{V_{yf}^{2}}{2a}

So we can solve the equation for V_{yf}^{2} so we get:

V_{yf}=\sqrt{2\Delta y a}

and when substituting the known values we get:

V_{yf}=\sqrt{2(-1.42m)(-9.8m/s^{2})}

which yields:

V_{yf}=-5.28m/s

Once we got the final velocity in y, we can use it together with the velocity in x to find the angle.

So we can use the following formula:

tan \theta =\frac{V_{y}}{V_{x}}

when solving for theta we get:

\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{V_{y}}{V_{x}})

We can substitute so we get:

\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{-5.28m/s}{3.72m/s})

which yields:

\theta = -54.83^{o}

If the 50 kg boy were in a spacecraft 5.0r from the center of the earth, what would his weight be?
Lady_Fox [76]
·The acceleration of gravity is proportional to

                       1 / (the square of the distance from the center) .

When we're on the surface, we're 1 radius from the center of the Earth,
and the acceleration of gravity is  9.8 m/s² .

The boy's weight = (mass) · (gravity) = (50kg) · (9.8 m/s²)

                                                             =      490 newtons .

At the distance of 5 radii from the center (4 radii altitude from the surface),
the acceleration of gravity is

                 (9.8 m/s²) · (1/5)²  =  0.39 m/s² .

The boy's weight is    (mass) · (gravity)  =  (50kg) · (0.39 m/s²)

                                                                  =     19.6 newtons .

Just as we expected, his weight at that distance is

         (19.6 / 490) = 0.04  =  1/25  =  1/5²  of his weight on the surface.
