Answer:

Polarization, also called wave polarization, is an expression of the orientation of the lines of electric flux in an electromagnetic field ( EM field ). Polarization can be constant -- that is, existing in a particular orientation at all times, or it can rotate with each wave cycle.

Explanation:

Hope this helps!!!!!

Polarization also occurs when light is scattered while traveling through a medium. When light strikes the atoms of a material, it will often set the electrons of those atoms into vibration. The vibrating electrons then produce their own electromagnetic wave that is radiated outward in all directions.

Which jovian planet should have the most extreme seasonal changes? a. Saturn b. Neptune c. Jupiter d. Uranus
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

D). Uranus.

Explanation:

Jovian planets are described as the planets which are giant balls of gases and located farthest from the sun which primarily include Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.

As per the question, 'Uranus' is the jovian planet that would have the most extreme seasonal changes as its tilted axis leads each season to last for about 1/4 part of its 84 years orbit. The strong tilted axis encourages extreme changes in the season on Uranus. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.

pshichka [43]

Answer:

A. 0.199 J

B. 0.0663 C

C = 0.0221 F

D. 12.68 ohms

Explanation:

From the question:

time duration, t = 0.28 seconds

Average power, P = 0.71 W

Average voltage, V = 3 V

A) Energy is given as:

E = P * t

=> E = 0.71 * 0.28 = 0.199 J

B) Electrical energy is also given as:

E = qV

where q = charge

=> q = E / V

∴ q = 0.199 / 3 = 0.0663 C

C) Capacitance is given as charge over voltage:

C = q / V

=> C = 0.0663 / 3 = 0.0221 F

D) Electrical power, P, can also be given as:

P = V^2 / R

where R = resistance

=> R = V^2 / P

R = 3^2 / 0.71 = 9 / 0.71 = 12.68 ohms

Given a wire with a cross section of .45cm^2, a length of 3cm, and an internal resistance of 3 ohms, show your 5 steps to solve
Gre4nikov [31]
Resistance ∞ (proportional) length 
resistance ∞ 1/ area

therefore, 
(the constant that we take is known as the resistivity)

resistance =  (resistivity*length )/ area
 resistivity = (resistance * area ) / length
                  = (3 * 45) / 3 =    135/3 = 45 Ωm

in short your answer is 45 Ωm

What form of electro magnetic radiation does Wi-Fi use
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

<h2>Non-Ionizing Radiation From Wireless Technology </h2>

Radiofrequency (RF) energy is a type of electromagnetic radiation. It is used to transmit signals carrying information in the form of radio waves. Radio waves are broadcast using a transmitter. When the radio waves reach a receiver, the signal is converted back into the information that was originally sent by the transmitter. When you talk on a cell phone, your cell phone acts as a transmitter and your voice is carried on radio waves to the person you are calling. Their phone acts as the receiver and converts the signal back into your voice. In addition to cell phones, other wireless devices such as radios, Wi-Fi routers, satellites, radars and pacemakers can send or receive RF energy waves.
