zepelin [54]3 years ago
8 0

Science literacy is important because it provides a context for addressing societal problems, and because a science- literate populace can better cope with many of its prob- lems and make intelligent and informed decisions that will affect the quality of their lives and those of their children

A radio station broadcast on a frequency of 3.7 mhz what is the energy of the radio wave
Ratling [72]

A radio station broadcast on a frequency of 3.7 mhz what is the energy of the radio wave A radio station broadcasts its programmes at a wavelength of 500 m. Find the frequency of the radiowaves transmitted by the radio station, if the speed of radiowaves in air is 3 x 108 m/s. Ans: 6 x 10 Hz

<h3>What is radio station ?</h3>

Radio broadcasting is the act of sending audio (sound), occasionally together with accompanying metadata, across radio waves to radio receivers used by the general public. Unlike satellite radio, which uses a satellite in Earth's orbit, terrestrial radio broadcasting uses a land-based radio station to transmit radio waves. The listener needs a broadcast radio receiver to hear the material (radio). A radio network with which stations frequently have affiliations provide content in a standard radio format, whether through broadcast syndication, simulcasting, or both. Radio stations use a variety of modulations to transmit their signals, including FM (frequency modulation), which is an older analog audio standard, and AM (amplitude modulation).

A firefighter of mass 81 kg slides down a vertical pole with an acceleration of 3 m/s 2 . The acceleration of gravity is 10 m/s
natima [27]

Answer:

The force of friction that acts on him is

F_k=567N

Explanation:

The firefighter with an acceleration of 3m/s^2 take the gravity acceleration as 10m/s^2 isn't necessary to know the coefficient of friction just to know the force of friction:

F=m*a

F=F_w-F_k

m*a=F_w-F_k

F_w=81kg*10m/s^2=810N

Sole to Fk

81kg*3m/s^2=810N-F_k

F_k=810N-243N

F_k=567N

The potential energy of a watermelon is 15.0 J. The watermelon is 3.0 m high. What is the mass of the watermelon?
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

m = 0.51[kg]

Explanation:

Potential energy is defined as the product of mass by gravity by height.

E_{pot}=m*g*h

where:

Epot = potential energy = 15 [J]

m = mass [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.8 [m/s²]

h = elevation = 3 [m]

Now replacing:

E_{pot}=m*g*h\\15=m*9.8*3\\m = 0.51[kg]

Why must the height of the meniscus in the graduated cylinder match the height of the water in the tub when measuring volume?
galben [10]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

First, in order for you to understand, remember the basic concept of meniscus in graduated cylinder.

<em>"The meniscus is the curve seen at the top of a liquid in response to its container. The meniscus can be either concave or convex, depending on the surface tension of the liquid and its adhesion to the wall of the container".</em>

Now, according to this definition, and for water, the reading of the volume must be donde at the bottom of the curve of the meniscus. This is because the water  gives a concave curve.

If you read it and matches the height of water, you are getting two results:

One, get an accurate value or volume, because it's been done at eye level.

The second fact is that when you do the reading this way, The total pressure is made equal to the atmospheric pressure by adjusting the height of the cylinder until the water level is equal.
