A) The magnetic field doubles as well

The relationship between rms value of the electric field and rms value of the magnetic field for an electromagnetic wave is the following:

E_{rms}=cB_{rms}

where

E_rms is the magnitude of the electric field

c is the speed of light

B_rms is the magnitude of the magnetic field

From the equation, we see that the electric field and the magnetic field are directly proportional: therefore, if the rms value of the electric field is doubled, then the rms value of the magnetic field will double as well.

B) The intensity will quadruple

The intensity of an electromagnetic wave is given by

I=\frac{1}{2}c\epsilon_0 E_0^2

where

c is the speed of light

\epsilon_0 is the vacuum permittivity

E_0 is the peak intensity of the electric field

The rms value of the electric field is related to the peak value by

E_{rms}=\frac{E_0}{\sqrt{2}}

So we can rewrite the equation for the intensity as

I=c\epsilon_0 E_{rms}^2

we see that the intensity is proportional to the square of the rms value of the electric field: therefore, if the rms value of the electric field is doubled, the average intensity of the wave will quadruple.

A mechanic pushes a 2.30 ✕ 103-kg car from rest to a speed of v, doing 4,800 J of work in the process. During this time, the car
Illusion [34]

The horizontal force applied is  160 N while the velocity is  2.03 m/s.

<h3>What is the speed of the car?</h3>

The work done by the car is obtained as the product of the force and the distance;

W = F x

F = ?

x = 30.0 m

W = 4,800 J

F = 4,800 J/30.0 m

F = 160 N

But F = ma

a = F/m

a = 160 N/2.30 ✕ 10^3-kg

a= 0.069 m/s

Now;

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

u = 0/ms because the car started from rest

v = √2as

v = √2 * 0.069 * 30

v = 2.03 m/s

A bulldozer and a Mini Cooper are involved in a head-on collision. Which one experiences a greater force
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

The mini Cooper will experience the greater force

Explanation:

Generally, a bulldozer has a greater mass compared to a Mini Cooper hence when both of these vehicles interact in an head on collision the Mini Cooper will experience a greater force because the bulldozer has a greater momentum

84. Three resitors each of value 30 respectively are connected in a parallel
kati45 [8]

Answer:

each resistor draws 1/3 of an amp or 0.33333 amps

Explanation:

V = I * R

V = 10 volts

R = 30 ohms

10 = I * 30       Divide by 30

10/30 = I

I = 0.33333
