Why do remote controls for TV’s use infrared waves to communicate?

Physics
1 answer:
Delvig [45]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:  An IR remote (also called a transmitter) uses light to carry signals from the remote to the device so it can be controlled. It emits pulses of invisible infrared light that correspond to specific binary codes. These codes represent commands, such as power on, volume up, or channel down.

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

5000 m³

Explanation:

density = mass / volume

mass = density × volume

mass = 1000 × 5

mass = 5000 ( kg )

A physics book slides off a horizontal tabletop with a speed of 1.10 m/s. It strikes the floor in 0.350s. ignore air resistance.
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

a. 0.6 m b. 0.385 m c. 3.6 m/s at 287.78° to the horizontal

Explanation:

a. Using s = ut - 1/2gt² for motion under gravity where s = vertical distance = height of table, u = initial vertical velocity of book = 0 m/s, t = time of flight = 0.350 s and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s².

Substituting these these values into s and taking the top of the table as position 0 m, we have.

0 - s = 0t - 1/2gt²

-s = -1/2gt²

s = 1/2gt²

s = 1/2 × 9.8 m/s² × (0.350 s)²

s = 0.6 m

b. Using d = v't where d = horizontal distance from table, v' = horizontal velocity of book = 1.10 m/s and t = time of flight = 0.350 s

d = v't = 1.10 m/s × 0.350 s = 0.385 m

c. Using v² = u² - 2gs where u = initial vertical velocity of book = 0 m/s and g = 9.8 m/s², s = -0.6 m (negative since we are at the bottom and 0 m is at the top)and v = final vertical velocity of book

v² = u² - 2gs

= 0 - 2 × 9.8 m/s² × (-0.6 m)

= 11.76 m²/s²

v = √11.76 m/s

= 3.43 m/s

So, the magnitude of the resultant velocity is V = √(v² + v'²)

= √((3.43 m/s)² + (1.10 m/s)'²)

= √(11.76 m²/s² + 1.21 m²/s²)

= √12.97 m²/s²

= 3.6 m/s

Its direction Ф = tan⁻¹(-v/v') since v is in the negative y direction

= tan⁻¹(-3.43 m/s/1.10 m/s)

= tan⁻¹(-3.1182)

= -72.22°

Ф = -72.22°+ 360 = 287.78° since it is in the third quadrant

The gravitational potential energy of a particle of mass m moving under the influence of a fixed mass M is given by - , where G
djverab [1.8K]

-GMm/2r is the total energy of the mass m if it is in a circular orbit about mass M.

Given

A particle of mass m moving under the influence of a fixed mass's M, gravitational potential energy of formula  -GMm/r, where r is the separation between the masses and G is the gravitational constant of the universe.

As the Gravity Potential energy of particle = -GMm/r

Total energy of particle = Kinetic energy + Potential Energy

As we know that

Kinetic energy = 1/2mv²

Also, v is equals to square root of GM/r

v = √GM/r

Put the value of v in the formula of kinetic energy

We get,

Kinetic Energy = GMm/2r

Total Energy = GMm/2r + (-GMm/r)

                     = GMm/2r - GMm/r

                     = -GMm/2r

Hence, -GMm/2r is the total energy of the mass m if it is in a circular orbit about mass M.
