Physics
1 answer:
nlexa [21]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are different from ocean waves through their mode of propagation

Electromagnetic waves are Those waves that do not requires any material medium for their propagation. examples of electromagnetic waves are, Light wave, radiant heat, radio wave,

While

Ocean Waves are classified under mechanical waves, because they required a material medium for the to be to be propagated.

grigory [225]

Answer:

the maximum intensity of an electromagnetic wave at the given frequency is 45 kW/m²

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

To determine the maximum intensity of an electromagnetic wave, we use the formula;

I = \frac{1}{2}ε₀cE_{max²

where ε₀ is permittivity of free space ( 8.85 × 10⁻¹² C²/N.m² )

c is the speed of light ( 3 × 10⁸ m/s )

E_{max is the maximum magnitude of the electric field

first we calculate the maximum magnitude of the electric field ( E_{max  )

E_{max = 350/f kV/m

given that frequency of 60 Hz, we substitute

E_{max = 350/60 kV/m

E_{max = 5.83333 kV/m

E_{max = 5.83333 kV/m × ( \frac{1000 V/m}{1 kV/m} )

E_{max = 5833.33 N/C

so we substitute all our values into the formula for  intensity of an electromagnetic wave;

I = \frac{1}{2}ε₀cE_{max²

I = \frac{1}{2} × ( 8.85 × 10⁻¹² C²/N.m² ) × ( 3 × 10⁸ m/s ) × ( 5833.33 N/C )²

I = 45 × 10³ W/m²

I = 45 × 10³ W/m² × ( \frac{1 kW/m^2}{10^3W/m^2} )

I = 45 kW/m²

Therefore, the maximum intensity of an electromagnetic wave at the given frequency is 45 kW/m²

What is the process called in which water vapor and carbon dioxide retain heat
antoniya [11.8K]

The process in which water vapor and carbon dioxide retain heat is called the greenhouse effect.

<span>There are many gases which causes greenhouse effect like carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, fluorinated gases etc. These gases trap the heat in the atmosphere, resulting the surface of earth to get warm producing greenhouse effect.</span>

Which runner has greater kinetic energy: a 45 kg runner moving at a speed of 7 m per second or a 93 kg runner moving at a
bagirrra123 [75]

Kinetic Energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)

First runner:  KE = (1/2) (45kg) (49 m/s)  =  1,102.5 Joules  

Second runner:  KE = (1/2) (93kg) (9 m/s)  =  418.5 Joules

The <em>first runner </em><em>has 163</em>% more kinetic energy than the second runner has.
