An electromagnetic wave is traveling straight down toward the center of the Earth. At a certain moment in time the electric fiel

Answer:

North

Explanation:

In an electromagnetic wave, the direction of the wave, the direction of the electric field and the direction of the magnetic field are all perpendicular to each other.

Therefore, we can  find the direction of the magnetic field by using the right hand rule. We have:

- Index finger: direction of motion of the wave --> toward the center of Earth

- middle finger: direction of the electric field --> west

- thumb: direction of the magnetic field --> north

So, the magnetic field points north.

What happens to electric charges within a conductor when a charged object is brought close to it
Agata [3.3K]
Well, if a charger conductor is touched to another object or close enough to touching the object then the conductor can transfer its charge to that object. Conductors allow for electrons to be transported from particle to particle, so a charged object will always distribute its charge until the repulsive forces are minimized.

Which element easily loses one electron to form a positive ion?
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer/Explanation: As mentioned above, the characteristic chemical property of a metal atom is to lose one or more of its electrons to form a positive ion. However, certain metals lose electrons much more readily than others. In particular, cesium (Cs) can give up its valence electron more easily than can lithium (Li).

A voltage of 12 cos(I000t+45) Vis applied to a circuit in which a resistor of 4 .n, aninductor of L H, and a capacitor of 100 μF
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

0.01 H

Explanation:

V = 12 cos (1000t + 45)

C = 100 micro farad

Let the inductance be L .

When the current and the voltage are in the same phase so it is the condition of resonance.

So capacitive reactance = inductive reactance

Xc = XL

1/ωC = ωL

L = 1 / ω²C

By comparisonV = Vo Cos (ωt + Ф)

ω = 1000 rad/s

L = 1 / (1000 x 1000 x 100 x 10^-6)

L = 1 / 100

L = 0.01H

thus, the inductance of the inductor is 0.01 H.
