I believe it is called or referred to as the "Jet Stream". During World War II, allied pilots encountered high speed winds in the upper air. They named those winds after the fastest planes they came up against: fighters equipped with jet engines! Jet stream winds in winter time can reach up to 300 MPH as well!

Two 10-cm-diameter charged rings face each other, 21.0 cm apart. Both rings are charged to +40.0 nC. What is the electric field
Katyanochek1 [597]

Complete question:

Two 10-cm-diameter charged rings face each other, 21.0 cm apart. Both rings are charged to +40.0 nC. What is the electric field strength  at the midpoint between the two rings ?

Answer:

The electric field strength at the mid-point between the two rings is zero.

Explanation:

Given;

diameter of each ring, d = 10 cm = 0.1 m

distance between the rings, r = 21.0 cm = 0.21 m

charge of each ring, q = 40 nC = 40 x 10⁻⁹ C

let the midpoint between the two rings = x

The electric field strength  at the midpoint between the two rings is given as;

E_{mid} = E_{right} +E_{left}\\\\E_{right}  = \frac{KQ}{(x^2 + r^2)^\frac{2}{3} } \\\\E_{leftt}  = -\ \frac{KQ}{(x^2 + r^2)^\frac{2}{3} }\\\\E_{mid} = \frac{KQ}{(x^2 + r^2)^\frac{2}{3} }  - \frac{KQ}{(x^2 + r^2)^\frac{2}{3} } = 0

Therefore, the electric field strength at the mid-point between the two rings is zero.

Which electromagnetic wave has the lowest frequencies (less than 3×109 hertz)?
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Radio waves

Explanation:

The electromagnetic spectrum includes all different types of waves, which are usually classified depending on their frequency. Ordering them from the highest frequency to the lowest frequency, they are:

- Gamma rays

- X-rays

- Ultraviolet

- Visible light

- Infrared radiation

- Microwaves

- Radio waves

Radio waves are the electromagnetic waves with lowest frequency, their frequency is lower than 300 GHz (3\cdot 10^{11} Hz) and therefore they are the electromagnetic waves with lowest energy (in fact, the energy of an electromagnetic wave is proportional to its frequency). They are generally used for radio and telecommunications since this type of waves can travel up to long distances.

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

The 'little brain' attached to the rear of the brainstem is called the cerebellum. See the explanation below, please.

Explanation:

The cerebellum is in the back of the brain, it is small in size. It is responsible for functions such as integrations of sensory and motor pathways, balance, coordination of movements, posture.

How is Coulomb’s law similar to newton’s law of gravitational force? How is it different
natulia [17]

The similarities and the differences between gravitational and electric force are listed below

Explanation:

- The magnitude of the gravitational force between two objects is given by Newton's law of gravitation:

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where

G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1}s^{-2} is the gravitational constant

m_1, m_2 are the masses of the two objects

r is the separation between them

- Coloumb's law gives instead the strength of the electrostatic force between two charged objects, which is

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where:

k=8.99\cdot 10^9 Nm^{-2}C^{-2} is the Coulomb's constant

q_1, q_2 are the two charges

r is the separation between the two charges

By comparing the two equations, we find the following similarities:

  • Both the forces are inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects, F\propto \frac{1}{r^2}
  • Both the forces are proportional to the product between the "main quantity" of each force, which is the mass for the gravitational force (F\propto m_1 m_2) and the charge for the electric force (F\propto q_1 q_2

Instead, we have the following differences:

  • The gravitational force is always attractive, since the sign of m is always positive, while the electric force can be either attractive or repulsive, since the sign of q can be either positive or negative
  • The value of the gravitational costant G is much smaller than the value of the Coulomb's constant, so the gravitational force is much weaker than the electric force
