Answer:

The ratio of the potential difference across a metallic conductor to the current in the conductor is known as.

B. Resistance.

Explanation:

According to ohms law " the current passing through a conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference between the ends provided the temperature of the wire remains constant".

What is resistance ?

Resistance is a measure of the opposition to current flow in an electrical circuit

what is a resistor ?

a resistor is a n electric conductor which forms resistance to free flow of electric current, the resistance is measured in Ω

An AM radio station broadcasts isotropically (equally in all directions) with an average power of 3.40 kW. A receiving antenna 6

To solve the problem we will apply the concepts related to the Intensity as a function of the power and the area, as well as the electric field as a function of the current, the speed of light and the permeability in free space, as shown below.

The intensity of the wave at the receiver is

$I = \frac{P_{avg}}{A}$

$I = \frac{P_{avg}}{4\pi r^2}$

$I = \frac{3.4*10^3}{4\pi(4*1609.34)^2} \rightarrow 1mile = 1609.3m$

$I = 6.529*10^{-6}W/m^2$

The amplitude of electric field at the receiver is

$I = \frac{E_{max}^2}{2\mu_0 c}$

$E_{max}= \sqrt{2I\mu_0 c}$

The amplitude of induced emf by this signal between the ends of the receiving antenna is

$\epsilon_{max} = E_{max} d$

$\epsilon_{max} = \sqrt{2I \mu_0 cd}$

Here,

I = Current

$\mu_0$ = Permeability at free space

c = Light speed

d = Distance

Replacing,

$\epsilon_{max} = \sqrt{2(6.529*10^{-6})(4\pi*10^{-7})(3*10^{8})(60.0*10^{-2})}$

$\epsilon_{max} = 0.05434V$

Thus, the amplitude of induced emf by this signal between the ends of the receiving antenna is 0.0543V

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

d = 4180.3m

wavelengt of sound is 0.251m

Explanation:

Given that

frequency of the sound is 5920 Hz

v=1485m/s

t=5.63s

let d represent distance from the vessel to the ocean bottom.

an echo travels a distance equivalent to 2d, that is to and fro after it reflects from the obstacle.

$velocity=\frac{distance}{time}\\\\ v=\frac{2d}{t} \\\\vt=2d\\\\d=\frac{vt}{2}$

$d=\frac{1485*5.63}{2}\\d= 4180.3m$

wavelengt of sound is $\lambda$ = v/f

= (1485)/(5920)

= 0.251 m
