The conversion that should be made for this certain problem would be from miles to feet and from hours to second. The conversion of miles to feet would have a factor of 5280. For hours to second the factor would be 3600. Hope this answers the question.

What will be the length of a half wavelength dipole antenna operating at 10GHz?
iVinArrow [24]

Given :

Frequency , \nu = 10\ GHz .

To Find :

The length of a half wavelength dipole .

Solution :

Now , wavelength is given by :

\lambda=\dfrac{c}{\nu}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8\ m/s}{10\ GHz}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{10\times 10^9}\ m\\\\\lambda=0.03\ m\\\\\lambda=3 \ cm

Now , half length is given by :

L=\dfrac{\lambda}{2}\\\\L=\dfrac{3}{2}\ cm\\\\L=1.5 \ cm

Therefore , length of a half wavelength dipole is 1.5 cm .

Hence , this is the required solution .

On the interstate, the speed limit is 60 mi/h (about 100 km/h) a skilled driver can safely decelerate at about 6.1m/s^2. How lon
velikii [3]

Answer:

4.56 seconds

63.25 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken for the car to stop

u = Initial velocity = 60 km/h = 100 km/h = 100000/3600 = 27.78 m/s

v = Final velocity = 0

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration = -6.1 m/s²

Time taken by the car to stop

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0-27.78}{-6.1}\\\Rightarrow t=4.56\ s

Time taken by the car to stop is 4.56 seconds

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=27.78\times 4.56+\frac{1}{2}\times -6.1\times 4.56^2\\\Rightarrow s=63.25\ m

The total stopping distance would be 63.25 m

A quantity of gas is contained in a sealed container of fixed volume. The temperature of the
Alchen [17]

Answer:

If the Kelvin temperature of a gas is increased, the volume of the gas increases. This can be understood by imagining the particles of gas in the container moving with a greater energy when the temperature is increased.

Explanation:

If you heat a gas you give the molecules more energy so they move faster. This means more impacts on the walls of the container and an increase in the pressure. Conversely if you cool the molecules down they will slow and the pressure will be decreased.

To calculate a change in pressure or temperature using Gay Lussac's Law.

Ah electron is a negatively charged particle that has a charge of magnitude, e - 1.60 x 10-19 C. Which one of the following stat
Advocard [28]

Answer:

The correct statement is "The electric field is directed toward the electron and has a magnitude of \rm \dfrac{ke}{r^2} ".

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's law, the magnitude of the electric field due to a static point charge q at a point r distance away from it is given by

\rm E = \dfrac{k|q|}{r^2}.

  • k is the Coulmob's constant.

The direction of the electric field along the line joining the charge and the point where electric field is to be found and it is directed from positive charge to negative charge.

Conventionally, we assume a positive test charge placed at the point where electric field is to be found, the test charge has very small charge such that its charge does not affect the electric field due to the given charge.

The charge on the electron = -e.

The electric field due to an electron is given by

\rm E = \dfrac{k|-e|}{r^2}=\dfrac{ke}{r^2}.

The direction of this electric field is from positive test charge, placed at the point where electric field is to be found, towards the electron along the line joining the two.

Thus, the correct statement is "The electric field is directed toward the electron and has a magnitude of \rm \dfrac{ke}{r^2} ".
