Why can television satellites, which broadcast information as electromagnetic radiation, send signals from the vacuum of space?

a because electromagnetic radiation increases as the distance increases b because electromagnetic radiation does not need a medium to travel through c because space does not provide a medium that will block the satellite signals eliminate d because space is so vast that light waves can spread out to their full size and strength?

Answer:

<u>B</u><u> because electromagnetic radiation does not need a medium to travel through.</u>

Explanation:

Long ago, we (humans) used to think that every wave needed a medium to travel trough. The hypothetical electromagnetic medium was called Aether, but this brought some predictions of the wave behavior that couldn't be measured. One famous experiment made trying to measure one of this predictions was the Michelson Morley experiment, that tried to measure the  Aether drag, the drag of the medium made by the Earth as it travels trough it, kinda like a ship making waves as passed by a canal. So, all this experiments didn't give any results, and no one knew why. Then it came Albert Einstein. In 1905 he published a revolutionary work, that we today call the Special Relativity Theory, that does not needs an aether to explain how the light travels trough space, and its a theory accepted by all scientist (or almost all) today.

Two toy cars (m1 = 0.200 kg and m2 = 0.250 kg) are held together rear to rear with a compressed spring between them. When they a
timurjin [86]

Answer:

Acceleration of the second particle at that moment is given as

a_2 = 2.12 m/s^2

Explanation:

As we know that both cars are connected by same spring

So on this system of two cars there is no external force

So we will have

F = 0 = m_1a_1 + m_2a_2

now we have

m_1 = 0.200 kg

m_2 = 0.250 kg

a_1 = 2.65 m/s^2

now we have

0.200(2.65) + 0.250a_2 = 0

so we have

a_2 = 2.12 m/s^2

In SI units, what is the magnitude the net force acting on a 1,152 kg car that accelerates uniformly along a straight line from
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

Fnet = 14515.2 Newton

Explanation:

Net force can be defined as the vector sum of all the forces acting on a body or an object i.e the sum of all forces acting simultaneously on a body or an object.

Mathematically, net force is given by the formula;

Fnet = Fapp + Fg

Where;

  • Fnet is the net force.
  • Fapp is the applied force.
  • Fg is the force due to gravitation.

Given the following data;

Mass = 1,152 kg

Initial velocity, u = 3m/s

Final velocity, v = 17m/s

Time, t = 5 seconds

To find the magnitude of the net force;

First of all, we would determine the acceleration of the car.

Acceleration = (v-u)/t

Acceleration = (17 - 3)/5

Acceleration = 14/5

Acceleration = 2.8m/s

To find the applied force;

Fapp = mass * acceleration

Fapp = 1,152 * 2.8

Fapp = 3225.6 N

Next, we would find the force exerted on the car due to gravity.

Fg = mass * acceleration due to gravity

We know that acceleration due to gravity is equal to 9.8m/s²

Fg = 1152 * 9.8

Fg = 11289.6N

Substituting the values into the equation, we have;

Fnet = 3225.6 + 11289.6

Fnet = 14515.2 Newton
