Two radio antennas are 120 m apart on a north-south line, and they radiate in phase at a frequency of 3.4 MHz. All radio measure

ments are made far from the antennas. If the east-west reference line passes midway between the two antennas, what is the smallest angle from the antennas, measured north of east, at which constructive interference of two radio waves occurs?

Answer:

the smallest angle from the antennas is <em>47.3°</em>

Explanation:

We first need to write the expression for the relation between the wavelength (λ) and the frequency (f) of the wave, and then solve for the wavelength.

Therefore, the relation is:

λ = c /f

where

  • c is the speed of light constant
  • λ is the wavelength
  • f is the frequency

Thus,

λ = (3 × 10⁸ m/s) / (3.4 MHz)

  = (3 × 10⁸ m/s) / (3.4 MHz)(10⁶ Hz/1 MHz)

  = 88.235 m

Therefore, the smallest angle measured (from the north of east) from the antennas for the constructive interference of the two-radio wave can be calculated as

θ = sin⁻¹(λ / d)

where

  • d is the distance between the two radio antennas

Thus,

θ = sin⁻¹(88.235 / 120)

<em>θ = 47.3 °</em>

<em></em>

Therefore, the smallest angle from the antennas, measured north of east, at which constructive interference of two radio waves occurs is <em>47.3 °</em>.

a man uses a 900 watt electric iron to press his clothes for an average of 4 hours a week for five weeks if the cost of an elect
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

54 Kobo

Explanation:

Units of <u>electricity</u> are measured in kilowatt hours (kWh).

Given information:

  • 900 watt electric iron
  • Appliance usage = 4 hours a week for 5 weeks
  • Unit cost of electricity = 3 Kobo per kWh

<h3><u>Step 1</u></h3>

Convert the wattage of the electric iron from watts to kilowatts.

1000 watts (W) = 1 kilowatt (kW)

⇒ 900 watts = 1 ÷ 1000 = 0.9 kilowatts

This means that the power consumption of the electric iron is 0.9 kW per hour of use.

<h3><u>Step 2</u></h3>

Total hours spent pressing clothes:

= 4 hours per week for 5 weeks

= 4 × 5

= 20 hours

<u>Total power consumption</u>:

= number of kW × number of hours

= 0.9 × 20

= 18 kWh

<h3><u>Step 3</u></h3>

To find the <u>total cost</u>, multiply the total kWh by the cost per kWh:

⇒ Cost = 18 × 3 = 54 Kobo

I do have a couple ideas and tips that may help you win. I don’t know how the guidelines are set up so if the ideas won’t be helpful I apologize.

First off put some ice cubes in the container then sprinkle salt on them, The reaction will create an effect and be super cold.


Another idea would be to get some dry ice if you able to, This will freeze it solid within seconds.


The last idea combines the the first. Take a bowl and fill it with with water and ice (Make sure the bowl is insulated) add a small handful of salt into the bowl, Put your drink into the cooler and before shutting stir then well then close and wait for the amount of time left, Your should have a cold water bottle.


I hoped this helped you out and I hope you also win the contest.

I NEED HELP ASAP!!! 100 points if you answer these 7 questions:
netineya [11]

Answer:

#1. B. Alfred Wegener

#2. C. Volcanic activity at the ocean bottom.

#3. B, C. Continental, Sea floor (oceanic).

#4. B. Folding

#5. B. Tectonics

#6. C. Point underground where the earthquake starts

#7. C. Flood waters carrying away soil

Explanation:

#1. Alfred Lothar Wegener was a German polar researcher, geophysicist and meteorologist. During his lifetime he was primarily known for his achievements in meteorology and as a pioneer of polar research, and is also known as the father of plate tectonics.

#2. The most prominent feature of ocean topography discovered in the 1960s was: Volcanic activity at the ocean bottom. The continents have always been in their current positions.

#3. Tectonic plates are composed of oceanic lithosphere and thicker continental lithosphere, each topped by its own kind of crust. The two types of tectonic plates are continental and oceanic tectonic plates.

#4. Tremendous pushing forces exerted by two of Earth's plates moving together squeezed rock layers from opposite sides. This caused the rock layers to buckle and fold, forming folded mountains. Folded mountains are mountains formed by the folding of rock layers caused by compression forces.

#5. Plate tectonics is the scientific theory explaining the movement of the earth's crust. It is widely accepted by scientists today. Recall that both continental landmasses and the ocean floor are part of the earth's crust, and that the crust is broken into individual pieces called tectonic plates.

#6. The hypocenter is the point within the earth where an earthquake rupture starts. The epicenter is the point directly above it at the surface of the Earth. Also commonly termed the focus. See also epicenter.

#7. This process is known as erosion. In earth science, erosion is the action of surface processes that removes soil, rock, or dissolved material from one location on the Earth's crust, and then transports it to another location.

Hope this helps!

Have a nice day!
