What is the practical applications of radio waves

Physics

Keith_Richards [23]3 years ago

Radio waves have many uses—the category is divided into many subcategories, including microwaves and electromagnetic waves used for AM and FM radio, cellular telephones and TV.

The lowest commonly encountered radio frequencies are produced by high-voltage AC power transmission lines at frequencies of 50 or 60 Hz. These extremely long wavelength electromagnetic waves (about 6000 km) are one means of energy loss in long-distance power transmission.

Extremely low frequency (ELF) radio waves of about 1 kHz are used to communicate with submerged submarines. The ability of radio waves to penetrate salt water is related to their wavelength (much like ultrasound penetrating tissue)—the longer the wavelength, the farther they penetrate. Since salt water is a good conductor, radio waves are strongly absorbed by it; very long wavelengths are needed to reach a submarine under the surface.



HOPE THIS REALLY HELPS YOU.
THANK YOU.

A boulder of mass 2000. kg breaks loose of a mountainside and plunges 200. m straight down into a lake at a temperature of 5.00◦
natka813 [3]

Answer:

DS = 13865.7[J/K]

Explanation:

We can calculate the energy of the rock, like the potential energy relative to the lake level. Which can be calculated by means of the following expression of the potential energy:

E_{p}=m*g*h\\\\where:\\m = mass = 2000[kg]\\h = elevation = 200 [m]\\g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]

Therefore:

E_{p}=2000*9.81*200\\E_{p}=3924000 [J]\\

This energy is transformed into thermal energy.

we shall remember that isothermal heat transfer processes are internally reversible, so the entropy change of a system during one of these processes can be determined, by the following expression.

DS=\frac{Q}{T}\\ where:\\DS = entropy change [J/K]\\Q = Heat transfer [J]\\T = temperature [K]

T = 5 + 278 = 283[K]

DS = 3924000 / 283

DS = 13865.7[J/K]

Please help
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Range = 22.61 m

Explanation:

We can use the formula for the Range in flat ground, given by:

Range=v_i^2\frac{sin(2\theta)}{g}

which for our case renders:

Range=15^2\frac{sin(80^o)}{9.8} \approx 22.61\,\,m

Two loudspeakers emit sound waves along the x-axis. A listener in front of both speakers hears a maximum sound intensity when sp
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

frequency of the sound = f = 1,030.3 Hz

phase difference = Φ = 229.09°

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data:

Xini = 0.540m

Xfin = 0.870m

v = 340m/s

Step 2: frequency of the sound (f)

f = v / λ

λ = Xfin - Xini = 0.870 - 0.540 = 0.33

f = 340 / 0.33

f = 1,030.3 Hz

Step 3: phase difference

phase difference = Φ

Φ = (2π/λ)*(Xini - λ) = (2π/0.33)* (0.540-0.33) = 19.04*0.21 = 3.9984

Φ = 3.9984 rad * (360°/2π rad)

Φ = 229.09°

Hope this helps!
