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

A cat runs at 2 m/s for 3 s and then slows to a stop with an acceleration of 0.80 m/s2. What is

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

see that the correct one is B

Explanation:

To solve this exercise let us use the kinematic relations

v² = v₀² - 2 a x

as they indicate that the car stops, therefore the final speed is yield v = 0

x = v₀² / 2a

let's calculate

x = 2²/(2 0.8)

x = 2.5 m / s²

When reviewing the answers we see that the correct one is B

A 5kg object moving horizontally at 3m/s collides with a stationary 3kg object. After the collision, the 5kg object is deflected

gavmur [86]

Answer:

The velocity of each ball after the collision are 2.19 m/s and 2.58 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of object = 5 kg

Speed = 3 m/s

Mass of stationary object = 3 kg

Moving object deflected = 30°

Stationary object deflected = 31°

We need to calculate the velocity of each ball after collision

Using conservation of momentum

Along x-axis

$m_{1}u_{1}+m_{2}u_{2}=m_{1}v_{1}\cos\theta+m_{2}v_{2}\cos\theta$

Put the value into the fomrula

$5\times3+0=5\times v_{1}\cos30+3\times v_{2}\cos45$

$15=5v_{1}\times\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}+3v_{2}\times\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$

$15=\dfrac{5\sqrt{3}}{2}v_{1}+\dfrac{3}{\sqrt{2}}v_{2}$ ....(I)

Along y -axis

$m_{1}u_{1}+m_{2}u_{2}=m_{1}v_{1}\sin\theta+m_{2}v_{2}\sin\theta$

Put the value into the formula

$0+0=5\times v_{1}\sin30-3\times v_{2}\sin45$

$\dfrac{5}{2}v_{1}-\dfrac{3}{\sqrt{2}}v_{2}=0$ ...(II)

From equation (I) and (II)

$v_{1}=\dfrac{15\times2}{5\sqrt{3}+5}$

$v_{1}=2.19\ m/s$

Put the value of v₁ in equation (I)

$\dfrac{5}{2}\times2.19-\dfrac{3}{\sqrt{2}}v_{2}=0$

$v_{2}=\dfrac{5.475\times\sqrt{2}}{3}$

$v_{2}=2.58\ m/s$

Hence, The velocity of each ball after the collision are 2.19 m/s and 2.58 m/s.

what is the energy (in j) of a photon required to excite an electron from n = 2 to n = 8 in a he⁺ ion? submit an answer to three

grin007 [14]

Answer:

Approximately $5.11 \times 10^{-19}\; {\rm J}$ .

Explanation:

Since the result needs to be accurate to three significant figures, keep at least four significant figures in the calculations.

Look up the Rydberg constant for hydrogen: $R_{\text{H}} \approx 1.0968\times 10^{7}\; {\rm m^{-1}$ .

Look up the speed of light in vacuum: $c \approx 2.9979 \times 10^{8}\; {\rm m \cdot s^{-1}}$ .

Look up Planck's constant: $h \approx 6.6261 \times 10^{-34}\; {\rm J \cdot s}$ .

Apply the Rydberg formula to find the wavelength $\lambda$ (in vacuum) of the photon in question:

$\begin{aligned}\frac{1}{\lambda} &= R_{\text{H}} \, \left(\frac{1}{{n_{1}}^{2}} - \frac{1}{{n_{2}}^{2}}\right)\end{aligned}$ .

The frequency of that photon would be:

$\begin{aligned}f &= \frac{c}{\lambda}\end{aligned}$ .

Combine this expression with the Rydberg formula to find the frequency of this photon:

$\begin{aligned}f &= \frac{c}{\lambda} \\ &= c\, \left(\frac{1}{\lambda}\right) \\ &= c\, \left(R_{\text{H}}\, \left(\frac{1}{{n_{1}}^{2}} - \frac{1}{{n_{2}}^{2}}\right)\right) \\ &\approx (2.9979 \times 10^{8}\; {\rm m \cdot s^{-1}}) \\ &\quad \times (1.0968 \times 10^{7}\; {\rm m^{-1}}) \times \left(\frac{1}{2^{2}} - \frac{1}{8^{2}}\right)\\ &\approx 7.7065 \times 10^{14}\; {\rm s^{-1}} \end{aligned}$ .

Apply the Einstein-Planck equation to find the energy of this photon:

$\begin{aligned}E &= h\, f \\ &\approx (6.6261 \times 10^{-34}\; {\rm J \cdot s}) \times (7.7065 \times 10^{14}\; {\rm s^{-1}) \\ &\approx 5.11 \times 10^{-19}\; {\rm J}\end{aligned}$ .

(Rounded to three significant figures.)
