It’s frequency is high and microwaves can pass through the atmosphere of the Earth.

That is the main reason why microwaves are chosen for satellite communication. Its frequency is high and microwaves can pass through the atmosphere of Earth to reach higher orbit satellites. ... Radio waves (other than microwaves )get affected by ionosphere and hence isn't used.

A hoop (I = MR2) of mass 3 kg and radius 1.1 m is rolling at a center-of-mass speed of 11 m/s. An external force does 842 J of w

Scilla [17]

Answer:

$v_f = 20 m/s$

Explanation:

Since the hoop is rolling on the floor so its total kinetic energy is given as

$KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2} I\omega^2$

now for pure rolling condition we will have

$v = R\omega$

also we have

$I = mR^2$

now we will have

$KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}(mR^2)\frac{v^2}{R^2}$

$KE = mv^2$

now by work energy theorem we can say

$W = KE_f - KE_i$

$842 J = mv_f^2 - mv_i^2$

$842 = 3(v_f^2) - 3\times 11^2$

now solve for final speed

$v_f = 20 m/s$

Do you think toxicity is a qualitative or quantitative property? explain

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

Toxicity is a quantitative property

Explanation:

Qualitative property of a object cannot be measured it can just be observed

Quantitative property of a substance can be measured and be assigned a numerical value .
The toxicity level of a substance can be measured and be assigned a numeral value
