Explain in your own words the interaction between the electric and magnetic fields that make up a light wave.

Physics

Answer:

They oscillates perpendicularly to one another, the oscillation of one field generates the other field.

Explanation:

In a light wave, an oscillating electric field of a light wave produces a magnetic field, and the magnetic field also oscillates to produce an electric field. The magnetic field and the electric field of a light wave both oscillates perpendicularly to one another. The resultant energy and direction of the wave generated as a result of these oscillating fields is propagated perpendicularly to both fields.

Find the wavelength λ of the 80.0-khz wave emitted by the bat. express your answer in millimeters.
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

4.29 millimeters

Explanation:

Bats emit ultrasound waves: in air, ultrasound waves travel at a speed of

v=343 m/s

The frequency of the waves emitted by this bat is:

f=80.0 kHz = 80,000 Hz

Therefore we can find the wavelength of the wave emitted by the bat by using the relationship between speed, frequency and wavelength:

\lambda=\frac{v}{f}=\frac{343 m/s}{80,000 Hz}=4.29\cdot 10^{-3} m=4.29 mm

An 3.7 lb hammer head, traveling at 5.8 ft/s strikes a nail and is brought to a stop in 0.00068 s. The acceleration of gravity i
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

31677.2 lb

Explanation:

mass of hammer (m) = 3.7 lb

initial velocity (u) = 5.8 ft/s

final velocity (v) = 0

time (t) = 0.00068 s

acceleration due to gravity (g) 32 ft/s^{2}

force = m x ( a + g )

where

  • m is the mass = 3.7 lb
  • g is the acceleration due to gravity = 32 ft/s^{2}
  • a is the acceleration of the hammer

       from v = u + at

       a = (v-u)/ t

       a = (0-5.8)/0.00068 = -8529.4 ( the negative sign showa the its decelerating)

we can substitute all required values into force= m x (a+g)

force = 3.7 x (8529.4 + 32) = 31677.2 lb

If a golf ball is swinging on a pendulum on the planet mars (g=3.711 m/s²) and it takes 7 seconds to complete one oscillation, w
sertanlavr [38]
T = 2*pi*Sqrt (L/g)

T = Period = Time to complete one oscillation, L = Length of the pendulum, g = gravitational acceleration.

Then,

L = {T/(2*pi)}^2*g = {7/(2*pi)}^2*3.711 = 4.606 m
