Answer: Both are at the side of the spectrum that has the lowest frequency.

Explanation:-

Electromagnetic wave is defined as the wave which is associated with both electrical and magnetic component associated with them. They travel with the speed of light.

Both radio and microwaves are electromagnetic waves which are adjacent to each other in electromagnetic spectrum towards lower frequency and higher wavelength.

The relationship between wavelength and frequency of the wave follows the equation:

$\nu=\frac{c}{\lambda}$

where,

$\nu$ = frequency of the wave

c = speed of light

$\lambda$ = wavelength of the wave

If the displacement of a horizontal mass-spring system was doubled, the elastic potential energy in the system would change by a

bixtya [17]

Answer:

K'=4K

Explanation:

The electric potential energy is given by :

$E=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2$

Where

k is spring constant

x is compression or extension in the spring

If the displacement of a horizontal mass-spring system is doubled, x'= 2x

New elastic potential energy :

$E'=\dfrac{1}{2}kx'^2\\\\E'=\dfrac{1}{2}k(2x)^2\\\\=\dfrac{1}{2}k\times 4x^2\\\\K'=4\times \dfrac{1}{2}kx^2\\\\K'=4K$

So, new elastic potential energy 4 times the initial elastic potential energy.

North Dakota Electric Company estimates its demand trend line (in millions of kilowatt hours) to be: D = 75.0 + 0.45Q, whe

Alborosie

Answer:

The demand forecast for winter is 96.36 millions KWH

The demand forecast for spring is 145.08 millions KWH

The demand forecast for summer is 169.89 millions KWH

The demand forecast for fall is 73.08 millions KWH

Explanation:

Given that,

The demand trend line is

$D=(75.0+0.45Q)\times multiplicative\ seasonal\ factors$

We need to calculate the demand forecast for winter

Using given formula

$D=(75.0+0.45Q)\times multiplicative\ seasonal\ factors$

Put the value into the formula

$D=(75.0+0.45\times101)\times0.80$

$D=96.36\ millions\ KWH$

We need to calculate the demand forecast for spring

Using given formula

$D=(75.0+0.45Q)\times multiplicative\ seasonal\ factors$

Put the value into the formula

$D=(75.0+0.45\times102)\times1.20$

$D=145.08\ millions\ KWH$

We need to calculate the demand forecast for summer

Using given formula

$D=(75.0+0.45Q)\times multiplicative\ seasonal\ factors$

Put the value into the formula

$D=(75.0+0.45\times103)\times1.40$

$D=169.89\ millions KWH$

We need to calculate the demand forecast for fall

Using given formula

$D=(75.0+0.45Q)\times multiplicative\ seasonal\ factors$

Put the value into the formula

$D=(75.0+0.45\times104)\times0.60$

$D=73.08\ millions KWH$

Hence, The demand forecast for winter is 96.36 millions KWH

The demand forecast for spring is 145.08 millions KWH

The demand forecast for summer is 169.89 millions KWH

The demand forecast for fall is 73.08 millions KWH

Astronomers know that the distance between the Earth and the Sun averages 1.50 x108 km. How can astronomers use the observed ste

rodikova [14]

Answer:

The distance of stars and the earth can be averagely measured by using the knowledge of geometry to estimate the stellar parallax angle(p).

From the equation below, the stars distances can be calculated.

D = 1/p

Distance = 1/(parallax angle)

Stellar parallax can be used to determine the distance of stars from an observer, on the surface of the earth due to the motion of the observer. It is the relative or apparent angular displacement of the star, due to the displacement of the observer.

Explanation:

Parallax is the observed apparent change in the position of an object resulting from a change in the position of the observer. Specifically, in the case of astronomy it refers to the apparent displacement of a nearby star as seen from an observer on Earth.

The parallax of an object can be used to approximate the distance to an object using the formula:

D = 1/p

Where p is the parallax angle observed using geometry and D is the actual distance measured in parsecs. A parsec is defined as the distance at which an object has a parallax of 1 arcsecond. This distance is approximately 3.26 light years

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

1.5 * 10^-2 Tm^2

Explanation:

Electric Flux = B.A cos(theta)

B = 0.055 T

A = 0.32 m^2

theta = 30

Electric Flux = (0.055 T).(0.32 m^2).Cos(30) = 0.0152 = 1.5 * 10^-2 Tm^2

A calorimeter directly measures ______ in order to calculate ______. (1 point)

Aneli [31]

The complete sentence is:

A calorimeter directly measures changes in temperature in order to calculate specific heat.

In fact, the amount of energy acquired/released by a substance is directly proportional to its change in temperature due to the equation

$Q=mC_s \Delta T$

where Q is the amount of energy, m is the mass of the substance, Cs is the specific heat of the substance and $\Delta T$ is the change in temperature. Therefore, by knowing Q, m and by measuring the change in temperature, it is possible to calculate Cs, the specific heat capacity of the substance.
