What is the amplitude of the electric field of the light wave? express your answer with the appropriate units?

1 answer:

6 0

The Amplitude is the Intensity of the wave, the power transferred by unit. The light wave has two components: electric field and magnetic field. With E is denoted the amplitude of the electric field ,with M the amplitude of the magnetic field. These fields stimulate force (F) to act on particle of electric charge which gives the intensity of the wave. The Force is expressed in units Newtons and the electric charge in coloumbs. That’s why the units of the intensity of the wave is newtons per coloumbs (N*C^-1).

Answer:

Explanation:

The volume of contaminated water

= cross sectional area x height of water level

3.14 x 9 x 9 x 7.5 ft³

= 1907.55 ft³

mass = density x volume

= 1907.55 x 63.5 lbs

m = 121129.425 lbs

This mass has to be raised to the height of 8 ft before evacuation .

There is a rise of centre of mass of

8 - 7.5/2 ft

h = 4.25 ft

Energy required

= mgh

= 121129.425 x 32 x 4.25

= 16473601.8 unit.

A 97.1 kg horizontal circular platform rotates freely with no friction about its center at an initial angular velocity of 1.63 r

sammy [17]

Answer:

the final angular velocity of the platform with its load is 1.0356 rad/s

Explanation:

Given that;

mass of circular platform m = 97.1 kg

Initial angular velocity of platform ω₀ = 1.63 rad/s

mass of banana $m_{b}$ = 8.97 kg

at distance r = 4/5 { radius of platform }

mass of monkey $m_{m}$ = 22.1 kg

at edge = R

R = 1.73 m

now since there is No external Torque

Angular momentum will be conserved, so;

mR²/2 × ω₀ = [ mR²/2 + $m_{b}$ ( $\frac{4}{5}$ R)² + $m_{m}$ R² ]w

m/2 × ω₀ = [ m/2 + $m_{b}$ ( $\frac{4}{5}$ )² + $m_{m}$ ]w

we substitute

w = 97.1/2 × 1.63 / ( 97.1/2 + 8.97(16/25) + 22.1

w = 48.55 × [ 1.63 / ( 48.55 + 5.7408 + 22.1 )

w = 48.55 × [ 1.63 / ( 76.3908 ) ]

w = 48.55 × 0.02133

w = 1.0356 rad/s

Therefore; the final angular velocity of the platform with its load is 1.0356 rad/s

Toon Train is traveling at the speed of 10 m/s at the top of a hill. Five seconds later it reaches the bottom of the hill and is

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

the rate of acceleration of the train is 4 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the train, u = 10 m/s

change in time of motion, dt = 5 s

final velocity of the train, v = 30 m/s

The rate of acceleration of the train is calculated as;

$a = \frac{dv}{dt} = \frac{v-u}{dt} = \frac{30-10}{5} = \frac{20}{5} = 4 \ m/s^2$

Therefore, the rate of acceleration of the train is 4 m/s²

A pendulum consists of a 0.5 kg mass attached to the end of 1-meter-long rod of negligible mass. When the rod makes an angle of

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

T=4.24 N.m

Explanation:

Torque is equal to force for distance for sinus of the angle between the direction of the force and the distance, the distance between the mass and the pivot is 1 m, and to obtain the force that is the mass for the gravity in this case, we need to know the component that produces a torque in the pivot

F=0.5 kg* 9.8 m/ $s^{2}$ = 4.9 N

and we decompose the force in parallel direction to the rod and perpendicular direction to the rod, the magnitude that produces torque is the perpendicular component, because the torque is in function of the sinus

so, we obtain -> Fy= 4.9 N*sin(60)= 4.24 N

and, T= (4.24 N)*(1 m)*(Sin(90))= 4.24 N.m

anothe way to do it is,

T= (4.9 N)*(1 m)*(Sin(60))= 4.24 N.m, and we obtain the same result

Radiation emitted from human skin reaches its peak at λ = 960 µm. what is the frequency of this radiation? planck's constant is

Artist 52 [7]

1) The wavelength of the radiation emitted by the human skin is
$\lambda=960 \mu m = 960 \cdot 10^{-6} m$
the frequency of the radiation is related to the wavelength by
$f= \frac{c}{\lambda}$
where $c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s$ is the speed of light. Plugging numbers into the formula, we find the frequency of the radiation:
$f= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{960 \cdot 10^{-6}m}=3.13 \cdot 10^{11} Hz$

2) The frequency of this radiation is 313 GHz, and its wavelength $960 \mu m$ . If we look at the table of the electromagnetic spectrum
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_spectrum
We see that we are in the range of visible light (in particular, in the infrared range).
Therefore, the correct answer is <span>2. visible light .</span>
