a. 240 µW/m^2
b. 340 µW/m^2

Answer:

Option D is correct: 170 µW/m²

Explanation:

Given that,

Frequency f = 800kHz

Distance d = 2.7km = 2700m

Electric field Eo = 0.36V/m

Intensity of radio signal

The intensity of radial signal is given as

I = c•εo•Eo²/2

Where c is speed of light

c = 3×10^8m/s

εo = 8.85 × 10^-12 C²/Nm²

I = 3×10^8 × 8.85×10^-12 × 0.36²/2

I = 1.72 × 10^-4W/m²

I = 172 × 10^-6 W/m²

I = 172 µW/m²

Then, the intensity of the radio wave at that point is approximately 170 µW/m²

Point charges q1=+2.00μC and q2=−2.00μC are placed at adjacent corners of a square for which the length of each side is 5.00 cm.
8_murik_8 [283]

The electric potential is a scalar unit, so we don't have to struggle with the vectors. The formula that gives electric potential is

V = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q}{r}

1) At point a, the electric potential is the sum of the potentials due to q1 and q2. So,

V_a = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q_1}{r_1} + \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q_2}{r_2}

The distance from the center of the square to one of the corners is \sqrt2 L/2 = 0.035m

V_a = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{2\times10^{-6}}{0.035} + \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{-2\times10^{-6}}{0.035} = 0

The answer is zero, because the point charges are at equal distances and their magnitudes are also equal but their directions are opposite.

2) V_b = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q_1}{r_1} + \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q_2}{r_2}

r_1 = 0.05\sqrt2m\\r_2 = 0.05m

V_b = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{2\times10^{-6}}{0.05\sqrt2} + \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{-2\times10^{-6}}{0.05}\\V_b = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{2\times10^{-6}}{0.05} (\frac{1}{\sqrt2}-1)\\V_b = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0} (4\times 10^{-5})(-0.29)\\V_b = (-\frac{2.9\times10^{-6}}{\pi\epsilon_0})[tex]3) The work done on q3 by q1 and q2 is equal to the difference between  energies. This is the work-energy theorem. So,[tex]W = U_b - U_a

U = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q_1q_3}{r} = Vq_3

W = q_3(V_b - V_a) = q_3(V_b - 0)\\W = (-2\times10^{-6})(-\frac{2.9\times10^{-6}}{\pi\epsilon_0})\\W = \frac{5.8\times10^{-12}}{\pi\epsilon_0}

A block of mass 2 kg slides down a frictionless ramp of length 1.3 m tilted at an angle 25o to the horizontal. At the bottom of
marin [14]

Answer:

Diagrams in pictures

Explanation:

Using energy I can get

m g h = 1/2 m v^2

So the velocity at the end of the ramp is the squareroot of two times the initial height of the box times the gravity constant.

(H= 1,3m sin25)

V=2,32m/s

V= a t

And

X= v t +1/2 a t^2

Knowing v=2,32 m/s and x= 1,3 m

I can get

a= 6,21m/s2

F= m a

I can get the force of the box when it collides with the spring

F= 12, 425 N

The force the spring makes on the box then is

F = -12,425N = -k d

Then the spring's constant is k= 51,75N/m

To make the two diagrams I need the functions of time when the box slows down

I use the same two equations

V= a t

And

X= v t + 1/2 a t^2

Being now 2,32 my initial velocity and 0 my final velocity, and my distance 0,24 m.

I get there the time t=0,0689 seconds and the acceleration a= -33,67 m/s2 (negative because it's slowing down).

Then,

V(t)= - 33,67 m/s2 t for time between 0 and 0,689 sec

X(t)= 2,32 m/s t + 1/2 33,67 m/s2 t^2.

for time between 0 and 0,689 sec

Diagrams and equations are in the pictures

Which best symbolizes the hydrogen bonding between two water molecules?
Artemon [7]

The best symbolizes the hydrogen bonding between two water molecules is given in the diagram.

<h3 /><h3>What is hydrogen bonding?</h3>

A hydrogen bond is an attraction between an electronegative atom carrying a single pair of electrons—the hydrogen bond acceptor—and a hydrogen atom that is covalently bonded to a more electronegative "donor" atom or group.

One definition of a polar covalent bond is one in which one atom has a stronger alternation for electron negativity difference between two bonds, the more polar the link.

Polar molecules like H2O have a mild partial negative charge in one area and a partial positive charge in another.

A rocket takes off from Earth's surface, accelerating straight up at 69.2 m/s2. Calculate the normal force (in N) acting on an a
goldenfox [79]

According to Newton's 3rd law, there will be equal and opposite force on the astronaut which is  -6048 N

<h3>What does Newton's third law say ?</h3>

The law state that in every action, there will be equal and opposite reaction.

Given that a rocket takes off from Earth's surface, accelerating straight up at 69.2 m/s2. We are to calculate the normal force (in N) acting on an astronaut of mass 87.4 kg, including his space suit.

Let us first calculate the force involved in the acceleration of the rocket by using the formula

F = ma

Where mass m = 87.4 kg, acceleration a = 69.2 m/s2

Substitute the two parameters into the formula

F = 87.4 x 69.2

F = 6048.08 N

According to the Newton's 3rd law, there will be equal and opposite force on the astronaut.

Therefore, the normal force acting on the astronaut is -6048 N approximately
