Laser transmissions travel at a higher speed than the radio waves true or false

1 answer:

6 0

<span>False. Laser transmissions and radio waves are both forms of electromagnetic radiation. Both travel at approximately 3.00 x 10^8 meters per second. This is the case because wavelength and frequency are directly proportional to this value. Although laser light has a shorter wavelength than radio waves, it will travel at the same speed because the frequency will be greater.</span>

Fundamentally, pressure is defined as force per unit area. What is the source of the force in a gas sample? A) The force is from

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

Given

Pressure = Force /Area

For any gas sample, force is defined as basically the force exerted by the gas molecules when they strike the surface (with in which they are contained) and bounce back.

Hence, Option C is the correct

An electron accelerated from rest through a voltage of 780 v enters a region of constant magnetic field. part a part complete if

maxonik [38]

The electron is accelerated through a potential difference of $\Delta V=780 V$ , so the kinetic energy gained by the electron is equal to its variation of electrical potential energy:
$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = e \Delta V$
where
m is the electron mass
v is the final speed of the electron
e is the electron charge
$\Delta V$ is the potential difference

Re-arranging this equation, we can find the speed of the electron before entering the magnetic field:
$v= \sqrt{ \frac{2 e \Delta V}{m} } = \sqrt{ \frac{2(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C)(780 V)}{9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg} }=1.66 \cdot 10^7 m/s$

Now the electron enters the magnetic field. The Lorentz force provides the centripetal force that keeps the electron in circular orbit:
$evB=m \frac{v^2}{r}$
where B is the intensity of the magnetic field and r is the orbital radius. Since the radius is r=25 cm=0.25 m, we can re-arrange this equation to find B:
$B= \frac{mv}{er}= \frac{(9.1 \cdot 10^{-31}kg)(1.66 \cdot 10^7 m/s)}{(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C)(0.25 m)} =3.8 \cdot 10^{-4} T$

What is the main difference between velocity and speed?

Marina86 [1]

Speed is scalar, meaning it's only going to be like 74 mph, doesn't matter which direction. Velocity is a vector, meaning it has direction. You can go -74mph when talking about velocity, not speed.

It takes fifteen minutes to complete a drilling operation using a lathe. the duration of this operation is known as _____ time.

dalvyx [7]

I think the correct answer would be processing time. The time of fifteen minutes describes how long the whole operation was done or how long is the whole processing of drilling. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
