Answer:electromagnetic wave

Explanation:

Grace [21]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

When you use your control remote, you can see that there is not a "material" thing that comes out of the control remote and goes to the TV, but there is actually energy that comes from the control remote (and this is why your control remote needs battery)

This energy is called an "electromagnetic wave" usually in the infrared range, this means that the energy that comes from the control remote has less energy than the visible red light (and this is why we can not see the light that comes out of the control remote), and this "signal" is read by the TV, in order to change of channel or change the volume.

You even can see that there is a sort of light (electromagnetic wave) coming out from it if you point with a camera to the small bulb that is in the front of the control remote.

A rotating light is located 13 feet from a wall. The light completes one rotation every 3 seconds. Find the rate at which the li
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

29.2 ft/s

Explanation:

The distance of the light's projection on the wall

y = 13 tan θ

where θ is the light's angle from perpendicular to the wall.

The light completes one rotation every 3 seconds, that is, 2π in 3 seconds,

Angular speed = w = (2π/3)

w = (θ/t)

θ = wt = (2πt/3)

(dθ/dt) = (2π/3)

y = 13 tan θ

(dy/dt) = 13 sec² θ (dθ/dt)

(dy/dt) = 13 sec² θ (2π/3)

(dy/dt) = (26π/3) sec² θ

when θ = 15°

(dy/dt) = (26π/3) sec² (15°)

(dy/dt) = 29.2 ft/s

1. If a car travels East 60 km for 4 hours. What was the velocity of the car?
True [87]

Answer:

15km/h East (15m/s East option)

Explanation:

Velocity = (change in) Distance/(change in) Time

The distance here is 60km, and the time is 4h, as given by the question. Therefore the velocity is 60km/4h = 15km/h.

To convert km/h to m/s, we just divide the value by 3.6, 15/3.6= 4.17m/s (2dp), which isn't actually an option here, so I'm assuming maybe a mistake in unit for the question?

'Velocity' is a vector quantity, meaning it has a size<em> </em>and a direction, as opposed to speed, a scalar quantity, which only has size. Therefore we need to add a direction for it to be velocity. The given direction here is east, so the velocity of the car is 15km/h East. (I would choose the 15m/s East as the question likely has a unit error and is closest.)

Hope this helped!

Jane plans to fly from Binghamton, New York, to Springfield, Massachusetts, about 280 km due east of Binghamton. She heads due e
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

90m/h N

Explanation:

we consider janes velocity to the positive X axis so Vj=280km/s

and the final position a dot in on the graph r=294km, we find the x and y components:

294*cos(17.8)=280 X+ confirming our theory

294*sin(17.8)=90 Y+ or N and that's the winds' velocity.
