Given: Please see the attached image below.

To be able to subtract vectors, we can either use the parallelogram method or the triangle method. Take note that the only difference is that alternatively adding vectors A and B, we will instead be adding A and – B. When we ponder of vector subtraction, we must anticipate about it in terms of adding a negative vector. A negative vector has the same magnitude as the original vector, however, it has an opposite direction.

So in this problem, the two vectors that will have the largest magnitude are A & F when subtracted (i.e., when one vector is subtracted from the other).

Answer:

$x=65.55m$

Explanation:

Let x be the distance to the shore

From trigonometry properties:

$tan(40^{o} )=\frac{55m}{x} \\x=\frac{55m}{tan(40^{o} )} \\x=65.55m$

What form of electro magnetic radiation does Wi-Fi use

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

<h2>Non-Ionizing Radiation From Wireless Technology </h2>

Radiofrequency (RF) energy is a type of electromagnetic radiation. It is used to transmit signals carrying information in the form of radio waves. Radio waves are broadcast using a transmitter. When the radio waves reach a receiver, the signal is converted back into the information that was originally sent by the transmitter. When you talk on a cell phone, your cell phone acts as a transmitter and your voice is carried on radio waves to the person you are calling. Their phone acts as the receiver and converts the signal back into your voice. In addition to cell phones, other wireless devices such as radios, Wi-Fi routers, satellites, radars and pacemakers can send or receive RF energy waves.

Describe electronegativity, and explain the trend of electronegativity in the Periodic Table

vaieri [72.5K]

Explanation:

Electronegativity is the property of an atom that attracts the shared pair of an electron to itself. There is a trend in the periodic table.

While moving down in a group, the electronegativity decreases. This is due to the reason that as we move down the number of shells added and so the electron become very far from the pull of the nucleus.

As we move across a period the electronegativity increases. This is because of the no. of charge on the nucleus increase.

A light bulb connects to a battery. A second, identical light bulb connects in parallel to the first light bulb. The connecting

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:d

Explanation:

Suppose V is the voltage of battery and R is the resistance of bulb

so Power drop for initial stage

$P_1=\frac{V^2}{R}$

When another identical bulb of same resistance is applied in parallel so voltage Drop across both the resistor will be same i.e. V

so Power consumed $P_2=\frac{V^2}{R}$

so there is no change in power and hence no dip in brightness
