Answer:

Amplitude and Frequency

Explanation:

Analog signals are composed of continuous waves that can have any values for frequency and amplitude. These waves are smooth and curved.

Radio transmissions are a combination of two kinds of waves: audio frequency waves that represent the sounds being transmitted and radio frequency waves that "carry" the audio information. All waves have a wavelength, an amplitude and a frequency as shown in the figure. These properties of the wave allow it to be modified to carry sound information.

The two most common types of modulation used in radio are amplitude modulation (AM) and frequency modulation (FM). Frequency modulation minimizes noise and provides greater fidelity than amplitude modulation, which is the older method of broadcasting . Both AM and FM are analog transmission systems, that is, they process sounds into continuously varying patterns of electrical signals which resemble sound waves.

Answer:

$T_s = 6.8 degree C$

Explanation:

As per thermal radiation we know that rate is heat radiation is given as

$\frac{dQ}{dt} = \sigma eA (T^4 - T_s^4)$

here we know that

T = 34 degree C = 307 K

$A = 1.38 m^2$

e = 0.557

$\sigma = 5.67 \times 10^{-8} W/m^2K^4$

$\frac{dQ}{dt} = 120 J/s$

now we have

$120 = (5.67 \times 10^{-8})(0.557)(1.38)(307^4 - T_s^4)$

$120 = (4.36 \times 10^{-8})(307^4 - T_s^4)$

$T_s = 279.8 K$

$T_s = 6.8 degree C$

Which type of radiation can reach the furthest? A. Beta B. Gamma C. Alpha

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

C. Alpha

Explanation:

Gamma radiation, unlike alpha or beta, does not consist of any particles, instead consisting of a photon of energy being emitted from an unstable nucleus. Having no mass or charge, gamma radiation can travel much farther through air than alpha or beta, losing (on average) half its energy for every 500 feet.

A cello string 0.75 m long has a 220 hz fundamental frequency. find the wave speed along the vibrating string. answer in units o

maxonik [38]

For fundamental frequency of a string to occur, the length of the string has to be half the wavelength. That is,

1/2y = L, where L = length of the string, y = wavelength.

Therefore,
y = 2L = 2*0.75 =1.5 m

Additionally,
y = v/f Where v = wave speed, and f = ferquncy

Then,
v = y*f = 1.5*220 = 330 m/s
