Answer:

D. Frequency

Explanation:

The energy of an electromagnetic wave is proportional to frequency, mathematically it is expressed as;

E ∝ f

E = hf

where;

h is Planck's constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ Js

The equation above can also be expanded to;

$E = hf = h \frac{c}{\lambda}$

where;

c is speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ is the wavelength of the electromagnetic wave

Since the speed of light is constant, we can conclude that the energy of the electromagnetic wave is directly proportional to its frequency and inversely proportional to its wavelength.

Therefore, the correct option for direct proportionality is FREQUENCY

Mama L [17]

Answer:

Txomin lifted the stone with greater mass. (Txomin levantó la roca con mayor fuerza).

Explanation:

The sportsman that lifts the stone with a greater mass needs a higher force (El deportista que levanta la piedra con mayor masa necesita una mayor fuerza):

José

$F = (200\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)$

$F = 1961.4\,N$

Txomin

$F = (220\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)$

$F = 2157.54\,N$

Txomin lifted the stone with greater mass. (Txomin levantó la roca con mayor fuerza).

17. (a) Will the electric field strength between two parallel conducting plates exceed the breakdown strength for air ( 3.0×106

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

Distance between plates d = 2 x 10⁻³m

Potential diff applied = 5 x 10³ V

Electric field = Potential diff applied / d

= 5 x 10³ / 2 x 10⁻³

= 2.5 x 10⁶ V/m

This is less than breakdown strength for air 3.0×10⁶ V/m

b ) Let the plates be at a separation of d .so

5 x 10³ / d = 3.0×10⁶ ( break down voltage )

d = 5 x 10³ / 3.0×10⁶

= 1.67 x 10⁻³ m

= 1.67 mm.

Two radio antennas A and B radiate in phase. Antenna B is a distance of 120 m to the right of antenna A. Consider point Q along

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

240 m

120 m

Explanation:

d = Path difference = 120 m

For destructive interference

Path difference

$d=\dfrac{\lambda}{2}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=2d\\\Rightarrow \lambda=2\times 120\\\Rightarrow \lambda=240\ m$

The longest wavelength is 240 m

For constructive interference

$d=\lambda\\\Rightarrow 120\ m=\lambda$

The longest wavelength is 120 m

Hey Tori's are the rim of a canyon yells hello toward the opposite side she has an echo hello four seconds later if the speed of

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

The wall is 680 meter away from the person.

Explanation:

Given data

Speed of sound = 340 $\frac{m}{s}$

Given that Persons said hello toward the opposite side she has an echo hello 4 seconds later means it takes 2 seconds for the sound to reach the wall & again 2 seconds to reach the persons ear.

Therefore the distance between the person & wall is

D = speed × Time

D = 340 × 2

D = 680 meter

Therefore the wall is 680 meter away from the person.
