Answer:

The correct answer is option a. 400J

Explanation:

Hello!

Let's solve this!

To know if the work is positive or negative we have to know the following:

The work is positive when the gas performs (expansion)

The work is negative when done outside on the gas (compression)

In this case the work is done by the gas, so it is positive.

The correct answer is option a. 400J

A radio wave has a wavelength of 300 m. The wave moves with a speed of 3.0 × 108 m/s. What is the frequency of the radio wave? A
NemiM [27]

           Frequency  =  (speed)  /  (wavelength)

                             = (3 x 10⁸ m/s)  /  (300 m)

                             =      1 x 10⁶ per sec

                             =      1 mHz 

This frequency is the " 1000 " or " 100 " that's marked
in the middle of your AM radio dial.

If there's an AM station in your city that broadcasts on 1000 kHz
and you tune your radio to it, you're picking up radio waves 
that are 300 meters long.  (about 0.19 of a mile)

A 40.0 N crate is pulled up a 5.0 m inclined plane. The angle of inclination of the plane to horizontal is 37o. If there is a co
Digiron [165]

The net gain in potential energy by the crate is 120 J.

<h3>What is potential energy?</h3>

Potential energy is the energy that an object has stored in it as a result of its position or condition. Potential energy exists in a stretched spring, a book held above your head, and a bicycle on top of a hill. The joule, which is represented by the letter "J," is the standard unit for calculating potential energy.

<h3 /><h3>Calculation:</h3>

We use the idea of potential energy, which is given by the equation,

PE = mgh

where,

m = mass of the crate

g = gravitational acceleration

h = height

Given,

mg = 40 N

L = 5 m

angle of inclination, ∅ = 37°

h = L sin∅

h = 5 (sin 37°)

h = 5 (3/5)

h = 3 m

Put the values in the above formula,

PE = mgh

PE = 40 (3)

PE = 120 J

Therefore, the net gain in potential energy by the crate is 120 J.

What is the maximum value of the magnetic field at a<br> distance2.5m from a 100-W light bulb?
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the intensity included as the power transferred per unit area, where the area is the perpendicular plane in the direction of energy propagation.

Since the propagation occurs in an area of spherical figure we will have to

I = \frac{P}{A}

I = \frac{P}{4\pi r^2}

Replacing with the given power of the Bulb of 100W and the radius of 2.5m we have that

I = \frac{100}{4\pi (2.5)^2}

I = 1.2738W/m^2

The relation between intensity I and E_{max}

I = \frac{E_max^2}{2\mu_0 c}

Here,

\mu_0 = Permeability constant

c = Speed of light

Rearranging for the Maximum Energy and substituting we have then,

E_{max}^2 = 2I\mu_0 c

E_{max}=\sqrt{2I\mu_0 c }

E_{max} = 2(1.2738)(4\pi*10^{-7})(3*10^8)

E_{max} = 30.982 V/m

Finally the maximum magnetic field is given as the change in the Energy per light speed, that is,

B_{max} = \frac{E_{max}}{c}

B_{max} = \frac{30.982 V /m}{3*10^8}

B_{max} = 1.03275 *10{-7} T

Therefore the maximum value of the magnetic field is B_{max} = 1.03275 *10{-7} T

g A simple pendulum (consisting of a point mass suspended by a massless string) on the surface of the earth has a period of 1.00
leonid [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for time period of a pendulum is given as follows :

T = 2π\sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }

l is length of pendulum and g is acceleration due to gravity .

So time period of pendulum  is not dependent on the mass of the pendulum . If time period is same and length is also the same then acceleration due to gravity will also be the same . Hence the acceleration due to gravity at distant planet will be same as that on the earth.
