How do microwaves use the behavior and characteristics of the electromagnetic wave to function?

Physics
1 answer:
serg [7]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Radiation moves out of the microwave into waves causing heat.

Explanation:

Inside your microwave oven, electrical energy is transformed into EM energy in the magnetron. When the microwave photons interact with food, food molecules are physically agitated, transforming the EM energy into kinetic energy, or energy of movement   .

A vector has an x-component
9966 [12]

Explanation:

The magnitude of a vector v can be found using Pythagorean's theorem.

||v|| = √(vₓ² + vᵧ²)

||v|| = √((-309)² + (187)²)

||v|| ≈ 361

You can find the angle of a vector using trigonometry.

tan θ = vᵧ / vₓ

tan θ = 187 / -309

θ ≈ 149° or θ ≈ 329°

vₓ is negative and vᵧ is positive, so θ must be in the second quadrant.  Therefore, θ ≈ 149°.

The brakes on your automobile are capable of creating a deceleration of 4.6 m/s^2. If you are going 114 km/h and suddenly see a
drek231 [11]

Answer:

The minimum time to get the car under max. speed limit of 79 km/h is 2.11 seconds.

Explanation:

a=\frac{V_f-V_0}{t}

isolating "t" from this equation:

t=\frac{V_f-V_0}{a}

Where:

a=-4.6m/s^2 (negative because is decelerating)

V_f= 79 km/h

V_0= 114 km/h

First we must convert velocity from km/h to m/s to be consistent with units.

79\frac{km}{h}*\frac{1000m}{1 km}*\frac{1h}{3600s}=\frac{79*1000}{3600}=21.94 m/s

114\frac{km}{h}*\frac{1000m}{1 km}*\frac{1h}{3600s}=\frac{114*1000}{3600}=31.67 m/s

So;

t=\frac{V_f-V_0}{a}=\frac{21.94 m/s-31.66m/s}{-4.6 m/s^2}=2.11 s
