Answer:

radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays and gamma rays.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are the waves which are created as the result of the electrical waves which are perpendicular to each other and also perpendicular to the direction of propagation.

Electromagnetic spectrum is range of the frequencies and their respective wavelengths of the various type of the electromagnetic radiation.

In order of the increasing frequency and the photon energy and the decreasing wavelength the spectrum are:

<u>radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays and gamma rays</u>.

Two parallel plates that are initially uncharged are separated by 1.7 mm, have only air between them, and each have surface area

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

$5.63\cdot 10^{-6} C$

Explanation:

The capacitor of a parallel-plate capacitor is given by:

$C=\epsilon_0 \frac{A}{d}$

where

A is the area of each plate

d is the separation between the plates

$\epsilon_0$ is the vacuum permittivity

The energy stored in a capacitor instead is given by

$U=\frac{1}{2}\frac{Q^2}{C}$

where

Q is the charge stored in each plate

Substituting the expression we found for C inside the last formula,

$U=\frac{1}{2}\frac{Q^2 d}{\epsilon_0 A}$

And re-arranging it

$Q=\sqrt{\frac{2U\epsilon_0 A}{d}}$

Now if we substitute

$d=1.7 mm=0.0017 m\\A=16 cm^2 = 16\cdot 10^{-4} m^2\\U = 1.9 J$

We find the charge stored on the capacitor:

$Q=\sqrt{\frac{2(1.9)(8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(16\cdot 10^{-4})}{0.0017}}=5.63\cdot 10^{-6} C$

10. Explain the principle of electric motor. Write its uses.

konstantin123 [22]

Explanation:

The principle of an electric motor is based on the current carrying conductor which produces magnetic field around it. A current carrying conductor is placed perpendicular to the magnetic field so that it experiences a force.

The largest electric motors are used for ship propulsion, pipeline compression and pumped-storage applications with ratings reaching 100 megawatts. Electric motors are found in industrial fans, blowers and pumps, machine tools, household appliances, power tools and disk drives.
