Explanation:

What is an antenna

According to NASA

An antenna is a metallic structure that captures and/or transmits radio electromagnetic waves. Antennas come in all shapes and sizes from little ones that can be found on the roof to watch TV to really big ones that capture signals from satellites millions of miles away.

How does an antenna work?

Antennas are much more than simple devices connected to every radio. They're the transducers that convert the voltage from a transmitter into a radio signal. And they pick radio signals out of the air and convert them into a voltage for recovery in a receiver

You are removing branches from your roof after a big storm. You throw a branch horizontally from your roof, which is a height 3.

mart [117]

Answer:

The initial velocity in the x-direction with which the branch was thrown is approximately 10.224 m/s

Explanation:

The given parameters of the motion of the branch are;

The height from which the branch is thrown = 3.00 m

The horizontal distance the branch lands from where it was thrown, x = 8.00 m

The direction in which the branch is thrown = Horizontally

Therefore, the initial vertical velocity of the branch, $u_y$ = 0 m/s

The time it takes an object in free fall (zero initial downward vertical velocity) to reach the ground is given as follows;

s = $u_y$ ·t + 1/2·g·t²

Where;

$u_y$ = 0 m/s

s = The initial height of the object = 3.00 m

g = The acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

∴ s = 0·t + 1/2·g·t² = 0 × t + 1/2·g·t² = 1/2·g·t²

t = √(2·s/g) = √(2 × 3/9.8) = (√30)/7 ≈ 0.78246

The horizontal distance covered before the branch touches the ground, x = 8.00 m

Therefore, the initial velocity in the horizontal, x-direction with which the branch was thrown, 'uₓ', is given as follows;

uₓ = x/t = 8.00 m/((√30)/7 s)

Using a graphing calculator, we get;

uₓ = 8.00 m/((√30)/7 s) = (28/15)·√30 m/s ≈ 10.224 m/s

The initial velocity in the horizontal, x-direction with which the branch was thrown, uₓ ≈ 10.224 m/s.

The angle between the two force of magnitude 20N and 15N is 60 degrees (20N force being horizontal) determine the resultant in m

BARSIC [14]

A) The resultant force is 30.4 N at $25.3^{\circ}$

B) The resultant force is 18.7 N at $43.9^{\circ}$

Explanation:

In order to find the resultant of the two forces, we must resolve each force along the x- and y- direction, and then add the components along each direction to find the components of the resultant.

The two forces are:

$F_1 = 20 N$ at $0^{\circ}$ above x-axis

$F_2 = 15 N$ at $60^{\circ}$ above y-axis

Resolving each force:

$F_{1x}=F_1 cos \theta = (20)(cos 0)=20 N\\F_{1y}=F_1 sin \theta =(20)(sin 0)=0 N$

$F_{2x}=F_2 cos \theta = (15)(cos 60)=7.5 N\\F_{2y}=F_2 sin \theta =(15)(sin 60)=13.0 N$

So, the components of the resultant are:

$F_x = F_{1x}+F_{2x}=20+7.5 = 27.5 N\\F_y = F_{1y}+F_{2y}=0+13.0=13.0 N$

And the magnitude of the resultant is:

$F=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}=\sqrt{27.5^2+13.0^2}=30.4 N$

And the direction is:

$\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{F_y}{F_x})=tan^{-1}(\frac{13.0}{27.5})=25.3^{\circ}$

In this case, the 15 N is applied in the opposite direction to the 20 N force. Therefore we need to re-calculate its components, keeping in mind that the angle of the 15 N force this time is

$\theta=180^{\circ}-60^{\circ}=120^{\circ}$

So we have:

$F_{2x}=F_2 cos \theta = (15)(cos 120)=-7.5 N\\F_{2y}=F_2 sin \theta =(15)(sin 120)=13.0 N$

So, the components of the resultant this time are:

$F_x = F_{1x}+F_{2x}=20-7.5 = 12.5 N\\F_y = F_{1y}+F_{2y}=0+13.0=13.0 N$

And the magnitude is:

$F=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}=\sqrt{13.5^2+13.0^2}=18.7 N$

And the direction is:

$\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{F_y}{F_x})=tan^{-1}(\frac{13.0}{13.5})=43.9^{\circ}$

One electron collides elastically with a second electron initially at rest. After the collision, the radii of their trajectories

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

114.92749 keV

Explanation:

r = Radius of trajectory

m = Mass of electron = $9.11\times 10^{-31}\ kg$

B = Magnetic field = 0.044 T

q = Charge of electron = $1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

The centripetal force and the magnetic forces are conserved

$m\frac{v^2}{r}=Bqv\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{Bqr}{m}$

Velocity of first electron

$v=\frac{Bqr_1}{m}\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{0.044\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.01}{9.11\times 10^{-31}}\\\Rightarrow v_1=77277716.79473\ m/s$

Velocity of second electron

$v=\frac{Bqr_2}{m}\\\Rightarrow v_2=\frac{0.044\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.024}{9.11\times 10^{-31}}\\\Rightarrow v_2=185466520.30735\ m/s$

Total kinetic energy is given by

$K=K_1+K_2\\\Rightarrow K=\frac{1}{2}mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2}mv_2^2\\\Rightarrow K=\frac{1}{2}m(v_1^2+v_2^2)\\\Rightarrow K=\frac{1}{2}\times 9.11\times 10^{-31}(77277716.79473^2+185466520.30735^2)\\\Rightarrow K=1.83884\times 10^{-14}\ J$

Converting to eV

$1\ J=\frac{1}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}\ eV$

$1.83884\times 10^{-14}\ J=1.83884\times 10^{-14}\times \frac{1}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}\ eV\\ =114927.49\ ev=114.92749\ keV$

The energy of incident electron is 114.92749 keV
