If an electromagnetic wave has components Ey = E0 sin(kx - ωt) and Bz = B0 sin(kx - ωt), in what direction is it traveling?

1 answer:

fomenos4 years ago

8 0

Answer:

Its traveling in the +x direction

Explanation:

The E-field is in the +y-direction, and the B-field is in the +z-direction, so it must be moving along the +x-direction, since the E-field, B-field and the direction of moving are all at right angles to each other.

A wave emitted from a source has a frequency of 10 Hz and wavelength 2.5 m. How much time will it take to reach a person located

const2013 [10]

Answer:

time taken by the wave to reach the person is 0.2 s

Explanation:

As we know that the speed of the wave is given as

$v = \lambda f$

here we know that the wavelength of the wave is

$\lambda = 2.5 m$

$f = 10 Hz$

now speed of the wave is given as

$v = 10(2.5)$

$v = 25 m/s$

Now time taken by the wave to reach 5 m distance is

$t = \frac{L}{v}$

$t = \frac{5}{25}$

$t = 0.2 s$

A ball is thrown directly downward with an initial speed of 7.70 m/s, from a height of 30.2 m. After what time interval does it

KatRina [158]

Answer:

$t = 1.82$

Explanation:

Given

$u = 7.70m/s$ -- initial velocity

$s = 30.2m$ --- height

Required

Determine the time to hit the ground

This will be solved using the following motion equation.

$s = ut + \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

Where

$g = 9,8m/s^2$

So, we have:

$30.2 = 7.70t + \frac{1}{2} * 9.8 * t^2$

$30.2 = 7.70t + 4.9 * t^2$

Subtract 30.2 from both sides

$30.2 -30.2 = 7.70t + 4.9 * t^2 - 30.2$

$0 = 7.70t + 4.9 * t^2 - 30.2$

$0 = 7.70t + 4.9t^2 - 30.2$

$7.70t + 4.9t^2 - 30.2 = 0$

$4.9t^2 + 7.70t - 30.2 = 0$

Solve using quadratic formula:

$t = \frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$

Where

$a = 4.9;\ b = 7.70;\ c = -30.2$

$t = \frac{-7.70\±\sqrt{7.70^2 - 4*4.9*-30.2}}{2*4.9}$

$t = \frac{-7.70\±\sqrt{651.21}}{9.8}$

$t = \frac{-7.70\±25.52}{9.8}$

Split the expression

$t = \frac{-7.70+25.52}{9.8}$ or $t = \frac{-7.70-25.52}{9.8}$

$t = \frac{17.82}{9.8}$ or $t = -\frac{33.22}{9.8}$

Time can't be negative; So, we have:

$t = \frac{17.82}{9.8}$

$t = 1.82$

Hence, the time to hit the ground is 1.82 seconds

Ksju [112]

Answer:

A. The project's energy costs will decrease

Explanation:

Since the project is located in an area with a demand-response program and on a site that has enough room for a wind-turbine to allow for on-site renewable energy.

Hence, the project's energy costs will decrease very well because it's implementing both of these strategies;

- Area with demand-response program.

- On-site renewable energy.
