Answer: The correct answer is an antenna.

Explanation:

In radio communication, radio receives radio waves which is an electromagnetic wave. It converts the information carried by them to usable form.

An antenna intercepts radio waves. It converts  them to tiny alternating current which are applied to receiver. Then, receiver extracts the desired information.

Therefore, the primary job of an antenna on a receiver is to capture modified radio waves

Define and describe the following terms: amplitude, wavelength, frequency, period, tension.
maw [93]

Answer:

Amplitude—distance between the resting position and the maximum displacement of the wave

Frequency—number of waves passing by a specific point per second

Period—time it takes for one wave cycle to complete

wavelength λ - the distance between adjacent identical parts of a wave, parallel to the direction of propagation.

Tension - described as the pulling force transmitted axially by the means of a string, a cable, chain, or similar one-dimensional continuous object, or by each end of a rod, truss member, or similar three-dimensional object

A 72.8-kg swimmer is standing on a stationary 265-kg floating raft. The swimmer then runs off the raft horizontally with a veloc
nalin [4]

Answer:

-1.43 m/s relative to the shore

Explanation:

Total momentum must be conserved before and after the run. Since they were both stationary before, their total speed, and momentum, is 0, so is the total momentum after the run off:

m_sv_s + m_rv_r = 0

where m_s = 72.8, m_r = 265 are the mass of the swimmer and raft, respectively. v_s = 5.21 m/s, v_r are the velocities of the swimmer and the raft after the run, respectively. We can solve for v_r

265v_r + 72.8*5.21 = 0

v_b = -72.8*5.21/265 = -1.43 m/s

So the recoil velocity that the raft would have is -1.43 m/s after the swimmer runs off, relative to the shore

While on a playground, you and your niece take turns sliding down a frictionless slide. Your mass is 75 kg while your little nie
Olenka [21]

Answer:

c.

Explanation:

  • In absence of friction, total mechanical energy must be conserved.
  • This means that the change in gravitational potential energy (in magnitude) must be equal to the change in kinetic energy:

       \Delta K = \Delta U \\ \\  \frac{1}{2} * m* v^{2}  = m*g*h

  • As it can be seen, the mass m is on the both sides of the equation, which means that it can be simplified.
  • We can solve this equation for v (speed at the bottom) as follows:

        v = \sqrt{2*g*h}

  • As it can be seen, the mass has no part in the equation, so, due both are starting from the same height, both people have the same speed at the bottom.
  • The option c is the right one.
