CHECK THE COMPLETE QUESTION BELOW;

the intensity of an electromagnetic wave is 80 MW/m2, what is the amplitude of the magnetic field of this wave? (c=3.0×108m/s, μ0=4π×10−7T⋅m/A, ε0=8.85×10−12C2/N⋅m2)

Answer:

2.4×10^5 N/C

Explanation:

the amplitude can be explained as the maximum field strength of the electric and magnetic fields. Wave energy is proportional to its amplitude squared (E2 or B2).

We were told to calculate the amplitude of the magnetic field, which can be done using expresion below

S=ε²/2cμ

Where S is the intensity intensity of an electromagnetic wave given as 80 MW/m2

ε² is the Amplitude which we are looking for

c= speed of light given as 3×10^8m/s

Substitute the values into above formula we have,

S=ε²/2cμ

Making Amplitude subject of formula

ε²=S×2cμ

ε²=[80×10^6)(2×3×10^8)(4Π×10^-7)

= 245598.44

ε²=2.4×10^5 N/C

Therefore, amplitude of the magnetic field of this wave is S=2.4×10^5 N/C

When the starter motor on a car is engaged, there is a 290 A current in the wires between the battery and the motor. Suppose the

Tema [17]

Answer:

$33.6\times10^{-4}}\text{ m}$ = 3.36 mm

Explanation:

From Ohm's law,

$V = IR$ (Voltage = Current * Resistance)

$R = \dfrac{V}{I}$

The geometric definition of resistance is

$R = \rho\dfrac{l}{A}$

where $\rho$ is the resistivity of the material, $l$ and $A$ are the length and cross-sectional area, respectively.

$A = \rho\dfrac{l}{R}$

$A = \rho\dfrac{l\timesI}{V}$

Since the wire is assumed to have a circular cross-section, its area is given by

$A = \pi\dfrac{d^2}{4}$ where $d$ is the diameter.

$\pi\dfrac{d^2}{4} = \rho\dfrac{l\timesI}{V}$

$d = \sqrt{\dfrac{4\rho l I}{\pi\times V}}$

Resistivity of copper = $1.68\times10^{-8}$ . With these and other given values,

$d = \sqrt{\dfrac{4\times1.68\times10^{-8}\times1.5\times290}{3.14\times 0.55}}$

$d = \sqrt{1128.43\times10^{-8}}$

$d = 33.6\times10^{-4} \text{ m}$

9. Using these words explain how matter and energy interact when waves are generated. Disturbance ______________________________

ohaa [14]

Answer:

A wave is a disturbance of the space (or of a medium), that carries energy without transmitting matter.

A wave is produced when there is a periodic vibration in the particles of a medium (mechanical wave), or when there is a periodic oscillation of the electric and magnetic fields (electromagnetic waves). Electromagnetic waves are the only ones that can travel through a vacuum.

Mechanical waves are further classified into two types, depending on how the particles in the medium vibrate:

- If they vibrate up and down (perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave), they are called transverse waves

- If they vibrate back and forth (parallel to the direction of motion of the wave), they are called longitudinal waves

In general, waves are generated from a precise point in the space, which is called source of the wave. The source of the wave does work, since it is responsible for starting the motion of the particle, and make them starting vibrating, so it transmits energy to the particles.
