Answer: True

Explanation:

Along a period from left to right the atomic size decreases because all the electrons are subsequently added to the same shell, also the equal no. of protons are added to the nucleus leading to the increase in the net effective nuclear charge at the constant distance. This leads to the increase in the force of attraction between the (opposite) charged particles which shrinks the atomic size.

What property of an electromagnetic wave changes when the wave is encoded with analog information?

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Amplitude and Frequency

Explanation:

Analog signals are composed of continuous waves that can have any values for frequency and amplitude. These waves are smooth and curved.

Radio transmissions are a combination of two kinds of waves: audio frequency waves that represent the sounds being transmitted and radio frequency waves that "carry" the audio information. All waves have a wavelength, an amplitude and a frequency as shown in the figure. These properties of the wave allow it to be modified to carry sound information.

The two most common types of modulation used in radio are amplitude modulation (AM) and frequency modulation (FM). Frequency modulation minimizes noise and provides greater fidelity than amplitude modulation, which is the older method of broadcasting . Both AM and FM are analog transmission systems, that is, they process sounds into continuously varying patterns of electrical signals which resemble sound waves.

The earth has radius R. A satellite of mass 100 kg is in orbit at an altitude of 3R above the earth's surface. What is the satel

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

W= 61.3 N

Explanation:

The only force acting on the satellite is the one due to the attraction from Earth, which obeys the Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation, as follows:

Fg =G*ms*me / (res)²

This force, also obeys the Newton's 2nd Law, so we can write the following equation:

G*ms*me*/ (res)² = ms* a = ms*g

We call to the product of the mass times the acceleration caused by gravity (g), the weight of this mass, so we can write as follows:

G*ms*me / (res)² = ms*g = W (1)

where G = 6.67*10⁻11 N*m²/kg², ms= 100 kg, me= 5.97*10²⁴ kg, and

res= 4 *re = 4*6.37*10⁶ m.

Replacing all these known values in (1), we get the value of W:

W =(( 6.67*5.97/(4*6.37)²) *( 10⁻¹¹ * 10²⁴ /10¹²) )* 100 N = 61.3 N
