Answer:
This is due to difference in bandwidths of different stations, and the inability of the bunny ear to accommodate distant bandwidths most times at the same time.
Explanation:
Bunny ears are a simple half-wave dipole antenna used to receive VHF television bands. It is constructed of two telescoping rods attached to a base, these rods extend out to about 1 meter length, and are collapsible when not in use. For the best reception the rods should be adjusted to be a little less than 1/4 wavelength at the frequency of the television channel being received and bandwidth of different station differs one frone another, so adjustment has to be made sometimes in order to get reception from other stations. Thankfully, the dipole has a wide bandwidth, so most times, adequate reception is achieved without having to adjust the length of the bunny ear.
The half wave dipole of a bunny ear has a low gain of about 2.14 dBi; which means it is not as directional and sensitive to distant stations as a large rooftop antenna, but its wide angle reception pattern may allow it to receive several stations located in different directions without requiring readjustment when the channel is changed. Sometime an adjustment of the rods is necessary.
An atom consists of the nucleus (a combination of the proton and neutron) and the electron which orbits the nucleus.
Answer:
Compasses are mainly used in navigation to find direction on the earth. This works because the Earth itself has a magnetic field which is similar to that of a bar magnet. The compass needle aligns with the Earth's magnetic field direction and points north-south. Also, In a magnet all the domains are oriented in the same direction. In the case of a nail, the domains can be aligned in the same direction causing the nail to become magnetic. That is because if you hang a bar magnet from a thread, the north pole will point to magnetic north. When you bring one north pole close to another north pole they repel each other. You can feel the two magnets pushing each other apart.
Answer:
Sink
Explanation:
Water has a density of 1 g/cm³. Since the density of the rock is greater than the density of water, the rock will sink.
