Answer:

0.368 cm

Explanation:

x = distance by which the mercury rise

d = depth of the water = 10 cm = 0.10 m

ρ = density of water = 1000 kgm⁻³

ρ' = density of mercury = 13600 kgm⁻³

P₀ = atmospheric pressure

Using equilibrium of pressure on both side

P₀ + ρ g d = P₀ + ρ' g (2x)

(1000) (0.10) = (13600) (2x)

x = 0.00368 m

x = 0.368 cm

A plane electromagnetic wave, with wavelength 5 m, travels in vacuum in the positive x direction with its electric vector E, of
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

E₀ = 229.1 V/m

E = E₀ / √2 = 229.1 / 1.414 = 162 V/m

B =  E / c  ( c is velocity of em waves )

=   162 / (3 x 10⁸)  = 54 x 10⁻⁸ T

rate of energy flow =  ( E x B )  / μ₀

= 162 x 54 x 10⁻⁸ / 4π x 10⁻⁷

= 69.65 W per m².
