Given Information:  

Frequency = f = 11 Ghz = 11x10⁹  Hz

Distance between boats = L = 8 km = 8000 m

Diameter of radar antenna = D = 2.10 m

Required Information:  

Distance between boats = d = ?

Answer:  

Distance between boats = d = 126.65 m

Explanation:  

The minimum distance between the two boats that will result in the detection by the radar antenna is given by

d = Ltan(θmin)

Where θmin is given by

θmin = sin⁻¹(1.22*λ/D)

Where D is the diameter of the radar antenna and λ is the wavelength given by

λ = c/f

Where c is the speed of light

λ = 3x10⁸/11x10⁹

λ = 0.02727 m

θmin = sin⁻¹(1.22*(0.02727)/2.10)

θmin = 0.907°

Therefore, the minimum distance between the two boats so that the radar antenna may detect is

d = 8000*tan(0.907)

d = 126.65 m

A sail boat moves north for a distance of 10 km when blown by a wind 30° east of south with the force of 5.00×10^4 N. how much w
erma4kov [3.2K]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

a) 5.00 x 10^8 J

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

The work done to move the sailboat is calculated through the equation;

W = F x d

where F is force and d is the distance.

Substituting the known values from the given above,

                             W = (5.00 x 10⁴ N)(10 km)(1000 m/ 1km)

                                 = 5.00 x 10⁸ J

Thus, the work done is <u>5.00 x 10⁸Joules</u>

A -0.06 charge that moves downward is in a uniform electric field with a strengthened of 200 N/C. What is the magnitude and dire
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

The magnitude of the force is 12 N Upwards

Explanation:

The force on a positive charge will be in the same direction as the field, but the force on a negative charge will be in the opposite direction to the field. Thus the direction of the force is upward.

Given;

magnitude of charge, q = 0.06 C

magnitude of electric field, E = 200 N/C

The magnitude of the force is given by;

F = qE

F = 0.06 x 200 N/C

F = 12 N Upwards

Therefore, the magnitude of the force is 12 N Upwards
