3. The electric field of a sinusoidal electromagnetic wave has an amplitude of 5.0 V/m. How much radiation energy passes through

a 1.5 m2 window perpendicular to the wave during one hour? a) 258 J b) 459 J c) 351 J d) 531 J e) 179 J

Answer:

e) $179$ J

Explanation:

$E_{o}$ = Magnitude of electric field = 5 V/m

$A$ = Area of window = 1.5 m²

$c$ = speed of electromagnetic wave = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

$\Delta t$ = time interval = 1 h = 3600 sec

radiation energy is given as

$U = (0.5)\epsilon _{o}E_{o}^{2}cA\Delta t$

$U = (0.5)(8.85\times 10^{-12})(5)^{2}(3\times 10^{8})(1.5)(3600)$

$U = 179$ J

Can you please summarise this, because I can't get the topic

An electric circuit is anything in which electric current flows. Typically it refers to things with wiring like the electronics in your phone, but it can be made of anything that conducts electricity.

Say you have a battery, it basically has a bunch of electrons under a potential (think of gas in a tank under pressure), but the only way for the electrons to move is to move through a conductor, which are molecules with loosely held electrons. If you take a copper wire and touch each end to the two terminals you’ve completed an electric circuit because the electrons can now flow. But you can also put things partway through the wire like a lightbulb, which when the electrons run through it generates light.

g a small smetal sphere, carrying a net charge is held stationarry. what is the speed are 0.4 m apart

weeeeeb [17]

Complete Question

A small metal sphere, carrying a net charge q1=−2μC, is held in a stationary position by insulating supports. A second small metal sphere, with a net charge of q2= -8μC and mass 1.50g, is projected toward q1. When the two spheres are 0.80m apart, q2 is moving toward q1 with speed 20ms−1. Assume that the two spheres can be treated as point charges. You can ignore the force of gravity.The speed of q2 when the spheres are 0.400m apart is.

Answer:

The value $v_2 = 4 \sqrt{10} \ m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The charge on the first sphere is $q_1 = 2\mu C = 2*10^{-6} \ C$

The charge on the second sphere is $q_2 = 8 \mu C = 8*10^{-6} \ C$

The mass of the second charge is $m = 1.50 \ g = 1.50 *10^{-3} \ kg$

The distance apart is $d = 0.4 \ m$

The speed of the second sphere is $v_1 = 20 \ ms^{-1}$

Generally the total energy possessed by when $q_2$ and $q_1$ are separated by $0.8 \ m$ is mathematically represented

$Q = KE + U$

Here KE is the kinetic energy which is mathematically represented as

$KE = \frac{1 }{2} m (v_1)^2$

substituting value

$KE = \frac{1 }{2} * ( 1.50 *10^{-3}) (20 )^2$

$KE = 0.3 \ J$

And U is the potential energy which is mathematically represented as

$U = \frac{k * q_1 * q_2 }{d }$

substituting values

$U = \frac{9*10^9 * 2*10^{-6} * 8*10^{-6} }{0.8 }$

$U = 0.18 \ J$

So

$Q = 0.3 + 0.18$

$Q = 0.48 \ J$

Generally the total energy possessed by when $q_2$ and $q_1$ are separated by $0.4 \ m$ is mathematically represented

$Q_f = KE_f + U_f$

Here $KE_f$ is the kinetic energy which is mathematically represented as

$KE_f = \frac{1 }{2} m (v_2^2$

substituting value

$KE_f = \frac{1 }{2} * ( 1.50 *10^{-3}) (v_2 )^2$

$KE_f = 7.50 *10^{ -4} (v_2 )^2$

And $U_f$ is the potential energy which is mathematically represented as

$U_f = \frac{k * q_1 * q_2 }{d }$

substituting values

$U_f = \frac{9*10^9 * 2*10^{-6} * 8*10^{-6} }{0.4 }$

$U_f = 0.36 \ J$

From the law of energy conservation

$Q = Q_f$

So

$0.48 = 0.36 +(7.50 *10^{-4} v_2^2)$

$v_2 = 4 \sqrt{10} \ m/s$
