A transmitter generates a 15-dBm signal and is connected to an antenna using a cable that introduce 2 dB of loss. The cable has

two connectors, one at each end, that intro-duce a loss of 2 dB each. What is the signal level at the input of the antenna in dBm and milliwatts?

Answer:

9 dBm or 7.94 mW

Explanation:

As per the question:

Signal generated by the transmitter, x_{T} = 15 dBm

Loss by the antenna, L = 2 dB

No. of connectors, n = 2

Loss by each connector, l = 2 dB

Now,

The signal level at the input of the antenna:

P = x_{T} - L - nl = 15 - 2 - 2\times 2 = 9\ dBm

Now, the signal level at the input in milliwatt:

P = \frac{10^{\frac{P(in\ dBm)}{10}}}{1000}

P = \frac{10^{\frac{9}{10}}}{1000} = 7.94\ mW

A bus slams on its breaks and goes from 30 km/hr to 15km/hr in 4 seconds. What is its acceleration?
PolarNik [594]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change).

Change in speed = (15 - 30) = -15 km/hr
Time for the change = 4 sec

Acceleration = (-15 km/hr) / (4 sec) = -3.75 km/hr per second .

Is that a lot ?  Not much ?

Let's convert it to a unit that we can think about:

     (-15 km/hr) x (1,000 m/km) x (1 hr / 3,600 sec) =

           (-15 x 1,000) / (3,600)  =  -(4 and 1/6) m/sec .

So the acceleration of the bus is    -(4 and 1/6) m/sec² .

The negative sign means that it slowed down.

(4 and 1/6) m/sec²  is about  42%  of the acceleration of gravity ...
the acceleration the bus would have if it drove off of a cliff.

When the car or the bus you're riding in slows down at that rate,
you feel  42%  of your weight pulling you forward against your
seat belt.  That's quite a drastic acceleration !

Violet light of wavelength 400 nm ejects electrons with a maximum kinetic energy of 0.860 eV from sodium metal. What is the bind
Travka [436]

Answer:

Binding Energy = 2.24 eV

Explanation:

First, we need to find the energy of the photon of light:

E = hc/λ

where,

E = Energy of Photon = ?

h = Plank's Constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ = wavelength of light = 400 nm = 4 x 10⁻⁷ m

Therefore,

E = (6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(4 x 10⁻⁷ m)

E = (4.97 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)(1 eV/1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)

E = 3.1 eV

Now, from Einstein's Photoelectric Equation:

E = Binding Energy + Kinetic Energy

Binding Energy = E - Kinetic Energy

Binding Energy = 3.1 eV - 0.86 eV

<u>Binding Energy = 2.24 eV</u>

Point charge μC is located at x =, y = , point charge is located at x = 0m. What are (a)the magnitude and (b)direction of the to
pishuonlain [190]

Answer: The question has some details missing. here is the complete question ; Point charge 1.5 μC is located at x = 0, y = 0.30 m, point charge -1.5 μC is located at x = 0 y = -0.30m. What are (a)the magnitude and (b)direction of the total electric force that these charges exert on a third point charge Q = 5.0 μC at x = 0.40 m, y = 0

Explanation:

  • a) First of all find the distance between the two charges;
  • x = 0, y = 0.30  and x = 0.40 m, y = 0
  • r = √( 0.4² + 0.3²)
  • = 0.5m

hence, the force F = 2Kq1q2cosθ /r²...............equation 1

but cosθ = y/r = 0.3/0.5

cosθ = 0.6

plugging back to equation 1;

F = 2 x 9 x 10^9 x 1.5 x 10^-6 x 5 x 10^-6 /0.5^2

F = 540 x 10^-3

Magnitude of Force = 0.54N

b) Direction is at angle 90
