The average kinetic energy of water molecules is greatest in

Physics
1 answer:
user100 [1]3 years ago
3 0
<h2>Answer: in a gaseous state </h2>

The average kinetic energy of the water molecules is greater in its gaseous state (in the form of water steam).

This is because in the gaseous state the water molecules are well separated from each other and can move freely in all the available space they have; because there are no cohesion forces that bond them.

In contrast to the liquid and solid state, in which the molecules have less movement.

A thin, rectangular sheet of metal has mass M and sides of length a and b. Find the moment of inertia of this sheet about an axi
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

The moment of inertia is I=\frac{M}{12} a^{2}

Explanation:

The moment of inertia is equal:

I=\int\limits^a_b {r^{2} } \, dm

If r is -\frac{a}{2}

and dm=\frac{M}{a} dr

I=\int\limits^a_b {r^{2}\frac{M}{a}  } \, dr\\a=\frac{a}{2} \\b=-\frac{a}{2}

I=\frac{M}{a} \int\limits^a_b {r^{2}  } \, dr\\\\I=\frac{M}{a} (\frac{M}{3} )_{b}^{a}\\  I=\frac{M}{3a} (\frac{a^{3} }{8} +\frac{a^{3} }{8} )\\I=\frac{M}{12} a^{2}

A 300 MHz electromagnetic wave in air (medium 1) is normally incident on the planar boundary of a lossless dielectric medium wit
Masja [62]

Answer:

Wavelength of the incident wave in air = 1 m

Wavelength of the incident wave in medium 2 = 0.33 m

Intrinsic impedance of media 1 = 377 ohms

Intrinsic impedance of media 2 = 125.68 ohms

Check the explanation section for a better understanding

Explanation:

a) Wavelength of the incident wave in air

The frequency of the electromagnetic wave in air, f = 300 MHz = 3 * 10⁸ Hz

Speed of light in air, c =  3 * 10⁸ Hz

Wavelength of the incident wave in air:

\lambda_{air} = \frac{c}{f} \\\lambda_{air} = \frac{3 * 10^{8} }{3 * 10^{8}} \\\lambda_{air} = 1 m

Wavelength of the incident wave in medium 2

The refractive index of air in the lossless dielectric medium:

n = \sqrt{\epsilon_{r} } \\n = \sqrt{9 }\\n =3

\lambda_{2} = \frac{c}{nf}\\\lambda_{2} = \frac{3 * 10^{6} }{3 * 3 * 10^{6}}\\\lambda_{2} = 1/3\\\lambda_{2} = 0.33 m

b) Intrinsic impedances of media 1 and media 2

The intrinsic impedance of media 1 is given as:

n_1 = \sqrt{\frac{\mu_0}{\epsilon_{0} } }

Permeability of free space, \mu_{0} = 4 \pi * 10^{-7} H/m

Permittivity for air, \epsilon_{0} = 8.84 * 10^{-12} F/m

n_1 = \sqrt{\frac{4\pi * 10^{-7}  }{8.84 * 10^{-12}  } }

n_1 = 377 \Omega

The intrinsic impedance of media 2 is given as:

n_2 = \sqrt{\frac{\mu_r \mu_0}{\epsilon_r \epsilon_{0} } }

Permeability of free space, \mu_{0} = 4 \pi * 10^{-7} H/m

Permittivity for air, \epsilon_{0} = 8.84 * 10^{-12} F/m

ϵr = 9

n_2 = \sqrt{\frac{4\pi * 10^{-7} *1 }{8.84 * 10^{-12} *9 } }

n_2 = 125.68 \Omega

c) The reflection coefficient,r  and the transmission coefficient,t at the boundary.

Reflection coefficient, r = \frac{n - n_{0} }{n + n_{0} }

You didn't put the refractive index at the boundary in the question, you can substitute it into the formula above to find it.

r = \frac{3 - n_{0} }{3 + n_{0} }

Transmission coefficient at the boundary, t = r -1

d) The amplitude of the incident electric field is E_{0} = 10 V/m

Maximum amplitudes in the total field is given by:

E = tE_{0} and E = r E_{0}

E = 10r, E = 10t

A doppler effect occurs when a source of sound moves. True or False
Shtirlitz [24]
<h2>Answer: True </h2>

The <u>Doppler effect</u> refers to the change in a wave perceived frequency when the emitter of the waves, and the receiver (or observer in the case of light) move relative to each other.

In other words, it is the variation of the frequency of a wave due to the relative movement of the source of the wave with respect to its receiver.

It should be noted that this effect  bears its name in honor of the Austrian physicist <u>Christian Andreas Doppler</u>, who in 1842 proposed the existence of this effect for the case of light in the stars. Another important aspect is that the effect occurs in all waves (including light and sound). However, it is more noticeable to humans with sound waves.
