Do radio waves travel at the speed of sound

Physics
2 answers:
adell [148]3 years ago
8 0

Sound travels at approximately 1,100 feet per second (766 miles per hour). Radio waves travel at the speed of light, which is approximately 186,000 miles per second. This means that in the time radio waves travel the length of a football field, light can travel further than all the way around the world.

According to Coulomb's law, the electrical force between two charged objects:A.is zero if they are opposite charges.B.increases
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer and explanation:

A correct option is an option (B).

The electrical force between two charges is given as,

F=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q_1q_1}{r^2}

The electrical force is directly proportional to the product of two charges. Thus Force will depend on two charges irrespective of their signs.

Option (A) is incorrect because if charges are opposite, the value of force will not be zero. It will be -ve.

Option (C) is incorrect because the force is directly proportional to the product of charges, it depends on the amount of charge.

Option (D) is also incorrect because the force in inversly proportional to the distance between two charges. Thus, if the distance between two charges is increased, the force between two charges will decrease.

Concllusion:

The correct option is option (B).

A spherical gas-storage tank with an inside diameter of 8.0 m is being constructed to store gas under an internal pressure of 1.
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

The minimum wall thickness Tmin required for the spherical tank is 65.90mm

Explanation:

Solution

Recall that,

Tmin = The minimum wall thickness =PD/2бp

where D = diameter of 8.0 m

Internal pressure = 1.62 MPa

Then

The yield strength = 295MPa/3.0 = 98.33

thus,

PD/2бp = 1.62 * 8000/ 2 *98.33

= 12960/196.66 = 65.90

Therefore the wall thickness Tmin required for the spherical tank is 65.90mm

An object is dropped from a height of 75.0 m above ground level. (a) determine the distance traveled during the first second.
barxatty [35]

The relevant formula we can use in this case would be:

h = v0 t + 0.5 g t^2

where,

h = height or distance travelled

v0 = initial velocity = 0 since it was dropped

t = time = 1 seconds

g = 9.8 m/s^2

 

So calculating for height h:

h = 0 + 0.5 * 9.8 m/s^2 * (1 s)^2

<span>h = 4.9 meters</span>

A park ranger driving on a back country road suddenly sees a deer in his headlights 20
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

17.1

Explanation:

The distance ahead, of the deer when it is sighted by the park ranger, d = 20 m

The initial speed with which the ranger was driving, u = 11.4 m/s

The acceleration rate with which the ranger slows down, a = (-)3.80 m/s² (For a vehicle slowing down, the acceleration is negative)

The distance required for the ranger to come to rest, s = Required

The kinematic equation of motion that can be used to find the distance the ranger's vehicle travels before coming to rest (the distance 's'), is given as follows;

v² = u² + 2·a·s

∴ s = (v² - u²)/(2·a)

Where;

v = The final velocity = 0 m/s (the vehicle comes to rest (stops))

Plugging in the values for 'v', 'u', and 'a', gives;

s = (0² - 11.4²)/(2 × -3.8) = 17.1

The distance the required for the ranger's vehicle to com to rest, s = 17.1 (meters).
