2 Why don't all communication devices function off the same wavelength?

1 answer:

7 0

Wavelength is the distance between identical points in the adjacent cycles of a waveform signal propagated in space or along a wire. In wireless systems, this length is usually specified in meters, centimeters, or millimeters.

Wavelengths are an important factor in Wi-Fi networks. Wi-Fi operates at five frequencies, all in the gigahertz range: 2.4 GHz, 3.6 GHz, 4.9 GHz, 5 GHz and 5.9 GHz. Higher frequencies have shorter wavelengths, and signals with shorter wavelengths have more trouble penetrating obstacles like walls and floors.

As a result, wireless access points that operate at higher frequencies with shorter wavelengths, often consume more power to transmit data at similar speeds and distances achieved by devices that operate at lower frequencies, with longer wavelengths.

A man can lift a mass of 200kg onThe surface of the earth. what is the amount of mass he can lift on the surface of the moon?

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

1,211.1 kg.

Explanation:

the force of gravity is less on the moon than on earth, so if the man can lift 200kg on earth, he could lift a greater amount on the moon because there is less resistance from gravity.

To know the amount of mass he can lift on the moon, we first need to know the amount of weight that is equivalent to those 200kg here on earth. This because the weight of the object is equal to the force that must be applied to lift it, and that force is applied by the man and it will be the same here and on the moon.

We calculate weight using the formula:

$w=mg$
