An 800-kHz radio signal is detected at a point 8.5 km distant from a transmitter tower. The electric field amplitude of the sign

al at that point is 0.90 V/m. Assume that the signal power is radiated uniformly in all directions and that radio waves incident upon the ground are completely absorbed. What is the average electromagnetic energy density at that point

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Frequency of radio signal is

f = 800kHz = 800,000 Hz.

Distance from transmitter

d = 8.5km = 8500m

Electric field amplitude

E = 0.9 V/m

The average energy density can be calculated using

U_E = ½•ϵo•E²

Where ϵo = 8.85 × 10^-12 F/m

Then,

U_E = ½ × 8.85 × 10^-12 × 0.9²

U_E = 3.58 × 10^-12 J/m²

The average electromagnetic energy density is 3.58 × 10^-12 J/m²

Answer:

4.96*10^-20 J

Explanation:

To find the average electromagnetic energy of the wave you use the fact that the wave can be taken as a spherical electromagnetic wave. IN this case, the amplitude of the wave change in space according to:

|E|=\frac{E_o}{r}

for a distance of 8.5km = 5.5*10^3m you have:

|E|=\frac{0.90\ V/m}{8.5*10^3m}=1.058*10^{-4}\ V/m

Next, to find the average energy at this point you use the following formula:

u_E=\frac{1}{2}\epsilon_0|E|^2

εo : dielectric permittivity of vacuum = 8.85*10^-12C^2/Nm^2

u_E=\frac{1}{2}(8.85*10^{-12})|1.058*10^{-4}|^2\ J=4.96*10^{-20}J

hence, the average energy of the wave is 4.96*10^-20 J

Explain why streets and highways have speed limits and not velocity limits.
alexdok [17]
We know that speed is a scalar unit while velocity is a vector. The signs are mostly concerned with the magnitude that the car should travel in, the direction is not as important. 

Hope I helped :)

Which scenario is an application of Newtons Second Law of Motion?
svlad2 [7]
D would be the answer because The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

A 2.1 kg block is dropped from rest from a height of 5.5 m above the top of the spring. When the block is momentarily at rest, t
ella [17]

Answer:

The speed of the block is 8.2 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of block, m = 2.1 kg

height above the top of the spring, h = 5.5 m

First, we determine the spring constant based on the principle of conservation of potential energy

¹/₂Kx² = mg(h +x)

¹/₂K(0.25)² = 2.1 x 9.8(5.5 +0.25)

0.03125K = 118.335

K = 118.335 / 0.03125

K = 3786.72 N/m

Total energy stored in the block at rest is only potential energy given as:

E = U = mgh

U = 2.1 x 9.8 x 5.5 = 113.19 J

Work done in compressing the spring to 15.0 cm:

W = ¹/₂Kx² = ¹/₂ (3786.72)(0.15)² = 42.6 J

This is equal to elastic potential energy stored in the spring,

Then, kinetic energy of the spring is given as:

K.E = E - W

K.E = 113.19 J - 42.6 J

K.E = 70.59 J

To determine the speed of the block due to this energy:

KE =  ¹/₂mv²

70.59 =  ¹/₂ x 2.1 x v²

70.59 = 1.05v²

v² = 70.59 / 1.05

v² = 67.229

v = √67.229

v = 8.2 m/s

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

1) The force Christian can exert on his bicycle before picking up the the cargo is 529.74 N

2) The force Christian can exert on his bicycle after picking up the the cargo is 647.46 N

Therefore, Christian has to exert more force on his bike after picking up the cargo

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of Christian and his bicycle = 54 kg

The mass of the cargo = 12 kg

1) The force Christian can exert on his bicycle before picking up the the cargo = Mass of Christian and his bicycle × Acceleration due to gravity

∴ The force Christian can exert on his bicycle before picking up the the cargo = 54 kg × 9.81 m/s² = 529.74 N

2) The force Christian can exert on his bicycle after picking up the the cargo = (54 + 12) kg × 9.81 m/s² = 647.46 N

Therefore, Christian has to exert more force on his bike after picking up the cargo.
