Which statement correctly differentiates between transmitters and receivers?
jeka94

Answer:

Transmitters send radio waves, and receivers capture radio waves.

Explanation:

Let us look at each of the choices one by one:

(1).Transmitters have antennas, and receivers do not have antennas.

Nope. To send signals transmitters need antennas, and to receive signals   the receivers need antennas as well.

(2). Transmitters send radio waves, and receivers capture radio waves.

This is true. Transmitters are for transmitting and receivers are for     receiving EM signals.

(3). Transmitters have demodulators, and receivers have modulators.

No, it is the other way around. Transmitters have modulators, and          receivers have demodulators.

(4). Transmitters do not have amplifiers, and receivers have amplifiers.

Nope. Both the transmitters and the receivers need amplifiers.    Transmitters need them to increase the power of the broadcast, and   receivers need them to amplify the signal for processing.

Therefore, only the 2nd statement "Transmitters send radio waves, and receivers capture radio waves." is correct.

A worker is thinking about two ways to get a box up 1.2 m onto a loading dock. He can use a force of 250 N to lift it straight u
harina [27]

Answer:

<em>The second option has a lower power output. P=30 W</em>

Explanation:

<u>Mechanical Power </u>

It is a physical magnitude that measures the rate a work W is done over time t.

\displaystyle P=\frac{W}{t}

Since W=F.d

\displaystyle P=\frac{F.d}{t}

The first option means the worker will lift the box by a distance of 1.2 meters in 3 seconds by applying 250 N of force. That produces a power of

\displaystyle P=\frac{(250). (1.2)}{3}=100\ Watt

The second option requires the worker applies 75 N of force and travel a distance of 4 meters for 10 seconds, thus the power is

\displaystyle P=\frac{(75). (4)}{10}=30\ Watt

The second option has a lower power output
