Answer:

<em>The electric field  can either oscillates in the z-direction, or the y-direction, but must oscillate in a direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation, and the direction of oscillation of the magnetic field.</em>

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are waves that have an oscillating magnetic and electric field, that oscillates perpendicularly to one another. Electromagnetic waves are propagated in a direction perpendicular to both the electric and the magnetic field. If the wave is propagated in the x-direction, then the electric field can either oscillate in the y-direction, or the z-direction but must oscillate perpendicularly to both the the direction of oscillation of the magnetic field, and the direction of propagation of the wave.

A person is riding a bicycle, and its wheels have an angular velocity of 10.7 rad/s. Then, the brakes are applied and the bike i
Scilla [17]

Answer:

(a) t = 22.9 s

(b) α= - 0.467 rad/s²

Explanation:

The uniformly accelerated circular movement, is a circular path movement in which the angular acceleration is constant.

We apply the equations of circular motion uniformly accelerated :

ωf ²=  ω₀² + 2*α*θ  Formula (1)

ωf= ω₀ + α*t Formula (2)

Where:

θ : angle that the body has rotated in a given time interval (rad)

α : angular acceleration (rad/s²)

t : time interval (s)

ω₀ : initial angular speed ( rad/s)

ωf : final angular speed ( rad/s)

Data

θ =  19.5 revolutions  : angular displacement of each wheel or angle that the  wheel has rotated in a given time interval

ω₀= 10.7 rad/s :  initial angular speed of the Wheel ( rad/s)

ωf = 0 : final angular speed  of the Whee( rad/s)

Calculating of the angular acceleration (α )

We replace data in the fómula (1),considering that 1 revolution is equal to 2π radians :

ωf ²=  ω₀² + 2*α*θ

(0 )²=  (10.7)² + 2*α*(19.5*2*π )

0= 114.49 + (245.04)*α

-114.49 =  (245.04)*α

α= (-114.49) /(245.04)

α= -114.49 /(245.04)

α= -0.467 rad/s²

Time does it take for the bike to come to rest

We replace data in the formula (2)

ωf = ω₀ + α*t

0 =  10.7 + -0.467*t

-10.7  = - 0.467*t    we multiply by (-1) both sides of the equation :

10.7  = 0.467*t  

t = 10.7 / 0.467

t = 22.9 s
