Answer:

The building was moved to a distance of, S = 510.2 m

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the building, m = 1.45 x 10⁶ kg

The work done to overcome the force of resistance, E = 1 x 10⁸ J

The force of resistance of the building, 2% of building weight

                                          Fₓ =  2 x 1.45 x 10⁶ x 9.8 / 100

                                               = 284200 N

The work done on the building,

                                    E = Fₓ · S

∴                                   S = E /  Fₓ

                                        = 1.45 x 10⁶ / 284200 N

                                        = 510.2 m

Hence, the building was moved to a distance of, S = 510.2 m

Electromagnetic waves differ from the other types of waves because they are
Ronch [10]

Correct answer choice is :



B) Able to travel through a vacuum.



Explanation:



Electromagnetic waves are applied to carry long/short/FM wavelength radio waves, and TV/telephone/wireless signals or services. They are also effective for transferring energy in the form of microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet light, X-rays, and gamma rays. Electromagnetic waves change from mechanical waves in that they do not need a medium to generate. This means that electromagnetic waves can move not only in the air and solid matters but also in the void of space.

The potential difference between the plates of an air-filled parallel-plate capacitor with a plate separation of 4 cm is 51 V. W
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Electric field between plates of a parallel plate capacitor is uniform .

In a uniform electric field , relation between electric field and potential gradient is as follows

electric field = potential gradient               [ E = - dV / dl ]

in the given case ,

dV = 51 V  ,

dl = 4 cm

=  4 x 10⁻² m

E = 51 /  4 x 10⁻²

= 12.75 x 10² V / m

= 1275 V / m
