Complete question is;

A microwave oven operates at a frequency of 2400 MHz. The height of the oven cavity is 25 cm and the base measures 30 cm by 30 cm. Assume that microwave energy is generated uniformly on the upper surface of the cavity and propagates directly

downward toward the base. The base is lined with a material that completely absorbs microwave energy. The total microwave energy content of the cavity is 0.50 mJ.

Answer:

Power ≈ 600,000 W

Explanation:

We are given;

Frequency; f = 2400 Hz

height of the oven cavity; h = 25 cm = 0.25 m

base area; A = 30 cm by 30 cm = 0.3m × 0.3m = 0.09 m²

total microwave energy content of the cavity; E = 0.50 mJ = 0.5 × 10^(-3) J

We want to find the power output and we know that formula for power is;

P = workdone/time taken

Formula for time here is;

t = h/c

Where c is speed of light = 3 × 10^(8) m/s

Thus;

t = 0.25/(3 × 10^(8))

t = 8.333 × 10^(-10) s

Thus;

Power = (0.5 × 10^(-3))/(8.333 × 10^(-10))

Power ≈ 600,000 W

the gravitational force between two objects is 1600 and what will be the gravitational force between the objects if the distance
Xelga [282]

I believe this is what you have to do:

The force between a mass M and a point mass m is represented by

F = G\frac{Mm}{r^{2} }

So lets compare it to the original force before it doubles, it would just be the exact formula so lets call that F₁

So F₁ = G(Mm/r^2)

Now the distance has doubled so lets account for this in F₂:

F₂ = G(Mm/(2r)^2)

Now square the 2 that gives you four and we can pull that out in front to give

F₂ = \frac{1}{4} G(Mm/r^2)

Now we can replace G(Mm/r^2) with F₁ as that is the value of the force before alterations

now we see that:

F₂ = \frac{1}{4} F₁

So the second force will be 0.25 (1/4) x 1600 or 400 N.

A girl swings on a playground swing in such a way that at her highest point she is 4.1 m from the ground, while at her lowest po
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

V1 =8.1 m/s

Explanation:

height at highest point (h2) = 4.1 m

height at lowest point (h1) = 0.8 m

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

from conservation of energy, the total energy at the lowest point will be the same as the total energy at the highest point. therefore

mgh1 + 0.5mV1^{2} = mgh2 + 0.5mV2^{2}

where

  • speed at highest point = V2
  • speed at lowest point = V1
  • mass of the girl and swing = m
  • at the highest point, the  speed is minimum (V1 = 0)
  • at the lowest point the speed is maximum (V2 is the maximum speed)
  • therefore the equation becomes mgh1 + 0.5mV1^{2} = mgh2

      m(gh1 + 0.5V1^{2}) = m(gh2)

      gh1 + 0.5V1^{2} = gh2

      V1 = \sqrt{\frac{gh2 - gh1}{0.5}}

now we can substitute all required values into the equation above.

V1 = \sqrt{\frac{(9.8x4.1) - (9.8x0.8)}{0.5}}

V1 = \sqrt{\frac{32.34}{0.5}}

V1 =8.1 m/s

What does -9.8 m/s mean? And what does it mean if something has a negative velocity?
a_sh-v [17]

I can't guess what -9.8 m/s means until you tell me where it came from,
or what 'm/s' means.

If perhaps it has something to do with the acceleration of gravity on Earth,
then the correct figure is ' -9.8 m/s² '.  That means that any object that
has no other force acting on it except gravity has its speed changing by
9.8 meters per second every second.  Since it's gravity doing the job,
then the object's speed is either increasing down, or decreasing up. 

If an object has negative velocity, then it's moving in the direction opposite
to the direction that you decided to call positive when you started doing the
problem.

For example, if you decide that up is positive and down is negative, and
then somebody drops a stone from the top of a tall building, then the
gravitational force on the stone is negative (pointing down), its velocity
is negative (it's falling towards down), and its acceleration is negative (its
speed towards down is getting faster and faster).  Everything is negative,
only because you decided that up is positive and down is negative.  It's
nothing to be worried about.

How much energy is used for boiling water in a 4 KW kettle for 20 minutes.​
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:About 860,000 results (1.08 seconds)

kettle-power

Jun 18, 2014 — It's interesting to see how much energy heating and cooling systems use ... the kettle uses goes into the water it costs more to use electricity to boil ... 3 minutes is 1/20 of an hour, so 2.4kW for 3 minutes is equivalent to 2.4 / 20 = 0.12kWh. ... kettle should NOT clock over 1kw/h in the 4 minutes it takes to boil
