Transverse waves are always characterized by particle motion being perpendicular to wave motion. A longitudinal wave is a wave in which particles of the medium move in a direction parallel to the direction which the wave moves.

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

a)   I = 1,894 10¹⁰ W / m², b)  E = 1.376 10⁵ N / C

Explanation:

a) intensity is defined as energy per unit area per unit time

          I = P / A

let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

         P = 10 mW = 10 10⁻³ W

         d = 0.82 μm = 0.82 10⁻⁶ m

the laser area is

         A =π r² = π d²/4

         A =π (0.82 10⁻⁶)²/4

         A = 5.28 10⁻¹³ m²

we calculate

          I = \frac{10 \ 10^{-3}}{5.28 \ 10^{-13}}

          I = 1,894 10¹⁰ W / m²

b) average intensity and electric field are related

          I = E * E

          E = √I

          E = \sqrt{1.894 \ 10^{10}}

          E = 1.376 10⁵ N / C

Your electricity bill says 834-kWh of consumption. With this amount of energy, how many 59-W light bulbs can be powered for an a
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

2019 light bulbs

Explanation:

So the electrical energy consumed by each 59-W light bulb within 7 hours is the product of the power and time duration

E = Pt = 59 * 7 = 413 Wh or 0.413 kWh

If each light bulb consumes 0.413 kWh, then the total number of light bulbs needed to consume 834 kWh would be

834 / 0.413 = 2019 light bulbs

A suitcase is pulled 28 feet along a flat sidewalk with a constant upward force of 80 lb at an angle of 23degrees with the horiz
Elenna [48]

Answer:

2795.3 J

Explanation:

distance, d = 28 feet = 8.53 m

Force, F = 80 lb = 356 N

Angle, θ = 23°

Work = F x d x cos θ

W = 356 x 8.53 x cos 23

W = 2795.3 J

Thus, the work done is 2795.3 J.
