Look on a periodic table and it will be the one that is in the middle that is in big letters like carbon is C and gold is AU

Telephone signals are often transmitted over long distances by microwaves. What is the frequency of microwave radiation with a w

amm1812

Answer:

1) f= 8.6 GHz

2) t= 0.2 ms

Explanation:

1)

Since microwaves are electromagnetic waves, they move at the same speed as the light in vacuum, i.e. 3*10⁸ m/s.
There exists a fixed relationship between the frequency (f) , the wavelength (λ) and the propagation speed in any wave, as follows:

$v = \lambda * f (1)$

Replacing by the givens, and solving for f, we get:

$f =\frac{c}{\lambda} =\frac{3e8m/s}{0.035m} = 8.57e9 Hz (2)$

⇒ f = 8.6 Ghz (with two significative figures)

2)

Assuming that the microwaves travel at a constant speed in a straight line (behaving like rays) , we can apply the definition of average velocity, as follows:

$v =\frac{d}{t} (3)$

where v= c= speed of light in vacuum = 3*10⁸ m/s

d= distance between mountaintops = 52 km = 52*10³ m

Solving for t, we get:

$t = \frac{d}{c} = \frac{52e3m}{3e8m/s} = 17.3e-5 sec = 0.173e-3 sec = 0.173 ms (4)$

⇒ t = 0.2 ms (with two significative figures)

What forces are those that act on an object causing the net force to be something other than zero?

Arisa [49]

Gravity is all ways pulling down and the normal force acting on top of the object and for it to have to push or pull to the object

A. A light wave moves through glass (n=1.5) at an angle of 25°. What angle will it have when it moves from the glass into air (n

torisob [31]

PART A)

By Snell's law we know that

$n_1sin i = n_2 sin r$

here we know that

$n_1 = 1.5$

$i = 25 degree$

$n_2 = 1$

now from above equation we have

$1.5 sin25 = 1 sin r$

$r = 39.3 degree$

so it will refract by angle 39.3 degree

PART B)

Here as we can see that image formed on the other side of lens

So it is a real and inverted image

Also we can see that size of image is lesser than the size of object here

Here we can use concave mirror to form same type of real and inverted image

PART C)

As per the mirror formula we know that

$\frac{1}{d_i} + \frac{1}{d_o} = \frac{1}{f}$

$\frac{1}{d_i} + \frac{1}{60} = \frac{1}{20}$

$d_i = 30 cm$

so image will form at 30 cm from mirror

it is virtual image and smaller in size
