Radio station klbj broadcasts at a frequency of 93.7 mhz. determine the length of the waves that corresponds to this frequency.

1 answer:

4 0

<span>The wavelength (in m) of a periodic wave is equal to the velocity of the wave (in m/s) divided by the frequency (in Hz). When talking about radio waves (electromagnetic radiation) that velocity is the speed of light, or 299792458 meters per second. Given a frequency of 93.7 MHz, or 93700000 Hz, the wave length is 299792458/93700000, or 3.1994926m.</span>

A cube is 4.4 cm on a side, with one corner at the origin. Part 1 (a) What is the unit vector pointing from the origin to the di

Sidana [21]

Answer:

(a) $\hat{A} = \frac{\hat{i} + \hat{j} + \hat{k}}{\sqrt{3}}$

(b) $\theta = 85.44^{\circ}$

Solution:

As per the question:

Side of the cube, a = 4.4 cm

Coordinates of the diagonally opposite corner, A = <4.4, 4.4, 4.4> cm

Now,

(a) To calculate the unit vector:

$\hat{A} = \frac{\vec{A}}{|A|}$

$\hat{A} = \frac{4.4\hat{i} + 4.4\hat{j} + 4.4\hat{k}}{\sqrt{()4.4}^{2} + (4.4)^{2} + (4.4)^{2}}$

$\hat{A} = \frac{4.4(\hat{i} + \hat{j} + \hat{k})}{4.4\sqrt{3}}$

$\hat{A} = \frac{\hat{i} + \hat{j} + \hat{k}}{\sqrt{3}}$

(b) To calculate the angle between the two vectors say A and A' is given by:

$\vec{A}\cdot \vec{A'} = \vec{A}\vec{A'}cos\theta$

$\theta = cos^{- 1}(\frac{\vec{A}\cdot \vec{A'}}{\vec{A}\vec{A'}})$ (1)

Now,

The coordinates of the diagonally opposite corner, A' is <0, 0, 1> cm

Thus

$\vec{A'} = 0\hat{i} + 0\hat{j} + 1\hat{k} = \hat{k}$

Now,

Using equation (1) :

$\theta = cos^{- 1}(\frac{(\frac{\hat{i} + \hat{j} + \hat{k}}{\sqrt{3}})\cdot \hat{k}}{|A||A'|})$

$|A||A'| = (\sqrt{4.4^{2} +4.4^{2} + 4.4^{2}})(\sqrt{0^{2} + 0^{2} + 0^{2}}) = 7.261$

Thus

$\theta = cos^{- 1}(\frac{\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}}{7.261})$

$\theta = cos^{- 1}(0.07946) = 85.44^{\circ}$

Dima020 [189]

Explanation:

Commercially available batteries use a variety of metals and electrolytes. Anodes can be made of zinc, aluminum, lithium, cadmium, iron, metallic lead, lanthanide, or graphite. Cathodes can be made of manganese dioxide, mercuric oxide, nickel oxyhydroxide, lead dioxide or lithium oxide. Potassium hydroxide is the electrolyte used in most battery types, but some batteries use ammonium or zinc chloride, thionyl chloride, sulfuric acid or lithiated metal oxides. The exact combination varies by battery type. For example, common single-use alkaline batteries use a zinc anode, a manganese dioxide cathode, and potassium hydroxide as the electrolyt
