Answer:

Technician B is correct

Explanation:

Freezing is a method of conversion of substance in its liquid state to solid state. It is the process by which a liquid substance changes to a solid at a particular temperature.

Increasing the pressure and decreasing the temperature of a liquid increases its freezing point. For example, in other to freeze water i.e to change water to ice, it has to be kept in a fridge at a temperature lower than the temperature of the water. The essence of covering the fridge after placing the water in the fridge is to increase the pressure of the liquid hence increasing its freezing rate.

Based on the above explanation, it can be concluded that technician B is correct.

A radar for tracking aircraft broadcasts a 12 GHz microwave beam from a 2.0-m-diameter circular radar antenna. From a wave persp
NISA [10]

A) 750 m

First of all, let's find the wavelength of the microwave. We have

f=12GHz=12\cdot 10^9 Hz is the frequency

c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light

So the wavelength of the beam is

\lambda=\frac{c}{f}=\frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{12\cdot 10^9 Hz}=0.025 m

Now we can use the formula of the single-slit diffraction to find the radius of aperture of the beam:

y=\frac{m\lambda D}{a}

where

m = 1 since we are interested only in the central fringe

D = 30 km = 30,000 m

a = 2.0 m is the aperture of the antenna (which corresponds to the width of the slit)

Substituting, we find

y=\frac{(1)(0.025 m)(30000 m)}{2.0 m}=375 m

and so, the diameter is

d=2y = 750 m

B) 0.23 W/m^2

First we calculate the area of the surface of the microwave at a distance of 30 km. Since the diameter of the circle is 750 m, the radius is

r=\frac{750 m}{2}=375 m

So the area is

A=\pi r^2 = \pi (375 m)^2=4.42\cdot 10^5 m^2

And since the power is

P=100 kW = 1\cdot 10^5 W

The average intensity is

I=\frac{P}{A}=\frac{1\cdot 10^5 W}{4.42\cdot 10^5 m^2}=0.23 W/m^2

A 42.2 kg sled is pulled forward
zaharov [31]

The net force on the sledge  is 31.64N.

Frictional force = µkR

                         = 0.269 x 42.2 x 9.81 = 111.36

net force = 143N - 111.36N

               = 31.64N
