To cook food, a microwave oven converts electrical energy into electromagnetic energy. (A) Specifically, it pours high-power RADIO waves into the box.

Water molecules and fat molecules resonate (jiggle) with the radio waves, and the heat is generated IN THE FOOD.

I work with microwave radios.

-- To communicate high-speed data over a distance of 5 to 10 miles, we use a radio transmitter with a power output of 0.07 watt .

-- To communicate high-speed data over distances up to 80 miles, we use a radio transmitter with a power output of 1 to 2 watts.

-- To heat up a chunk of leftover meatloaf, a microwave oven pumps radio waves into the box with a power output of 1200 to 1500 watts ! !

You have a radioactive sample with a half-life of 1 hour. At t = 1 hour, a Geiger counter measures its radiation at 40 counts/mi

Mama L [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that, .

The half-life of a radioactive element is

t½ = 1 hr.

At the first hour, the radioactive element has 40 counts/minute

After 4 hours it has 5 counts/minute

So,

We want to filled the table.

0 hours, I.e at the start

40 counts/mins × 2 = 80 counts / mis

First half-life (first hour) is

40 counts/mins

Second half-life (second hour)

40 counts/mins × ½ = 20 counts/mins

Third half-life (third hour)

40 counts/mins × ¼ = 10 counts / mins

Fourth half life (fourth hour)

40 counts/mins × ⅛ = 5 counts / mins

So, the table is

Time........................Geiger Counter Rate

0 hours.................... 80 counts / minutes

1 hour........................ 40 counts / minutes

2 hours..................... 20 counts / minutes

3 hours..................... 10counts / minutes

4 hours...................... 5 counts / minute

A car traveling at 22m/s is in an accident, and the 81 kg driver is brought to a stop in 1.4 s by in inflating airbag. What forc

larisa86 [58]

Here, F = m * a
F = m * v/t
Here, m = 81 Kg
v = 22 m/s
t = 1,4 s

Substitute their values,
F = 81 * 22/1.4
F = 81 * 15.71
F = 1273 N
So, Closest value from your options is 1300 N

In short, Your Answer would be Option B

Hope this helps!

A charged particle enters into a uniform magnetic field such that its velocity vector is perpendicular to the magnetic field vec

Ugo [173]

Answer:

a circular path

Explanation:

In a magnetism field if a charged particle having a charge of magnitude '' enters such that its velocity vector V is 90° to the direction of the magnetic field "B'', then it will experience a force, called Lorentz force F

$F = V\times B$

According to the property of cross-product, the Lorentz force (F) acting on the particle will be perpendicular to the instantaneous position of the particle, making the path of the particle to be a circular path.
