At what speed does the radio wave travel?

2 answers:

8 0

Radio, infrared, ultraviolet, X-rays, gamma Ray's, and light that you can see, are all electromagnetic waves, and all travel at the "speed of light".

Exactly: 299,792,458 meters per second, in vacuum

Easier to remember: 300,000 kilometers per second, in vacuum

Slower in any material stuff. Depends on the substances.

A 0.10 g honeybee acquires a charge of +23 pC while flying.

kari74 [83]

Answer:

a) $\frac{F}{w} =2.347\times 10^{-6}\ N$

b) $E=4.2609\times 10^7\ N.C^{-1}$ parallel to the earth surface.

In this case according to the Fleming's left hand rule the direction of movement of bee must be in a direction parallel to the earth surface and perpendicular to the electric field at the same time.

Explanation:

Given:

mass of the bee, $m=10^{-4}\ kg$

charge acquired by the bee, $q_2=23\times 10^{-12}\ C$

Electrical field near the earth surface, $E=100\ N.C^{-1}$

Now the electric force on the bee:

we know:

$F=\frac{1}{4\pi.\epsilon_0} \times \frac{q_1.q_2}{r^2}$

$F=E.q_2$

$F=100\times 23\times 10^{-12}$

$F=23\times 10^{-10}\ N$

The weight of the bee:

$w=m.g$

$w=10^{-4}\times 9.8$

$w=9.8\times10^{-4}\ N$

Therefore the ratio :

$\frac{F}{w} =\frac{23\times 10^{-10}}{9.8\times10^{-4}}$

$\frac{F}{w} =2.347\times 10^{-6}\ N$

The condition for the bee to hang is its weight must get balanced by the electric force acing equally in the opposite direction.

So,

$F=9.8\times10^{-4}\ N$

$E.q_2=9.8\times10^{-4}\ N$

$E\times 23\times 10^{-12}=9.8\times10^{-4}\ N$

$E=4.2609\times 10^7\ N.C^{-1}$ parallel to the earth surface.

In this case according to the Fleming's left hand rule the direction of movement of bee must be in a direction parallel to the earth surface and perpendicular to the electric field at the same time.

If Scobie could drive a Jetson's flying car at a constant speed of 160.0 km/hr across oceans and space, approximately how long w

DochEvi [55]

Scobie will take 10 days to drive around Earth's equator.

To calculate the time that takes Scobie to drive around Earth's equator we need to find the distance, which is given by the equation of a circumference:

$d = 2\pi r$

<em>Where:</em>

r: is the Earth's radius = 6371 km

Then, the distance is:

$d = 2\pi r = 2\pi*6371 km = 40030.2 km$

Now, if we divide the above distance by the speed of the car we can find the time:

$t = \frac{d}{v} = \frac{40030.2 km}{160.0 km/h} = 250.2 h*\frac{1 d}{24 h} = 10 d$

Therefore, Scobie will take 10 days to drive around Earth's equator.

Suppose that sunlight is incident upon both a pair of reading glasses and a pair of sunglasses. Which pair would you expect to b

Ainat [17]

Answer: the pair of sunglasses

Explanation:

A good pair of sunglasses are composed of abosorbent lenses that filter the sunlight that affects the eyes retina, especially ultraviolet (UV). So, these sunglasses are used to reduce the amount of light or radiant energy transmitted.

On the other hand, normal reading glasses (in which the lens glass has not been treated to filter ultraviolet sunlight) will let UV rays pass through.

Therefore, if both glasses are exposed to sunlight, the sunglasses are expected to be warmer by absorbing that radiant energy and preventing it from reaching the eyes.
