Answer:

Radio Waves

Explanation:

Radio wave is a type of electromagnetic radiation notorious for their use in technologies used for communication like air traffic control, mobile phones, televisions and remote-controlled toys. Radio waves have the longest wavelength in the electromagnetic spectrum and are easily transmitted through air.

A radar gun uses radio waves to tell how far away an object is. To do that, the radar tool emits a focused radio wave and listens for any echo. If there is an item, say a car within the route of the radio wave, it's going to replicate some of the electromagnetic energy, and the radio wave will return to the radar gun. Radio waves flow via the air at a steady pace, so the radar gun can calculate how far the object is based totally on how long it takes the radio signal to return.

The magnetic field perpendicular to a single 13.2-cm diameter circular loop of copper wire decreases uniformly from 0.670 T to z
shusha [124]

Answer:

5.23 C

Explanation:

The current in the wire is given by I = ε/R where ε = induced emf in the wire and R = resistance of wire.

Now, ε = -ΔΦ/Δt where ΔΦ = change in magnetic flux = AΔB and A = area of loop and ΔB = change in magnetic field intensity = B₂ - B₁

B₁ = 0.670 T and B₂ = 0 T

ΔB = B₂ - B₁ = 0 - 0.670 T = - 0.670 T

A = πD²/4 where D = diameter of circular loop = 13.2 cm = 0.132 m

A = π(0.132 m)²/4 = 0.01368 m² = `1.368 × 10⁻² m²

ε = -ΔΦ/Δt = -AΔB/Δt = -1.368 × 10⁻² m² × (-0.670 T)/Δt= 0.9166 × 10⁻² Tm²/Δt

Now, the resistance R of the circular wire R = ρl/A' where ρ = resistivity of copper wire =  1.68 x 10⁻⁸ Ω.m, l = length of wire = πD and A' = cross-sectional area of wire = πd²/4 where d = diameter of wire = 2.25 mm = 2.25 × 10⁻³ m

R = ρl/A' = 1.68 x 10⁻⁸ Ω.m × π × 0.132 m÷π(2.25 × 10⁻³ m)²/4 = 0.88704/5.0625 = 0.1752 × 10⁻² Ω = 1.752 × 10⁻³ Ω

So, I = ε/R = 0.9166 × 10⁻² Tm²/Δt1.752 × 10⁻³ Ω  

IΔt = 0.9166 × 10⁻² Tm²/1.752 × 10⁻³ Ω = 0.5232 × 10 C

Since ΔQ = It = 5.232 C ≅ 5.23 C

So the charge is 5.23 C
