A book is sitting on a desk. What best describes the normal force acting on the book?

Gravitational force is the result of the earth pulling down on the book, so the normal force is best described as the earth or more accurately the table pushing up on the book

Answer:

The downward force the Earth pulls on the book

Explanation:

If the force was pulling any other direction the book would not be resting on the table.

In si units, the electric field in an electromagnetic wave is described by ey = 104 sin(1.40 107x − ωt). (a) find the amplitude

melamori03 [73]

Answers:
(a) $B_o = 0.3466$ μT
(b) $\lambda = 0.4488$ μm
(c) f = $6.68 * 10^{14}Hz$

Explanation:
Given electric field(in y direction) equation:
$E_y = 104sin(1.40 * 10^7 x -\omega t)$

(a) The amplitude of electric field is $E_o = 104$ . Hence

The amplitude of magnetic field oscillations is $B_o = \frac{E_o}{c}$
Where c = speed of light

Therefore,
$B_o = \frac{104}{3*10^8} = 0.3466$ μT (Where T is in seconds--signifies the oscillations)

(b) To find the wavelength use:
$\frac{2 \pi }{\lambda} = 1.40 * 10^7$
$\lambda = \frac{2 \pi}{1.40} * 10^{-7}$
$\lambda = 0.4488$ μm

(c) Since c = fλ
=> f = c/λ

Now plug-in the values
f = (3*10^8)/(0.4488*10^-6)
f = $6.68 * 10^{14}Hz$
