Answer:
1) f= 8.6 GHz
2) t= 0.2 ms
Explanation:
1)
- Since microwaves are electromagnetic waves, they move at the same speed as the light in vacuum, i.e. 3*10⁸ m/s.
- There exists a fixed relationship between the frequency (f) , the wavelength (λ) and the propagation speed in any wave, as follows:
- Replacing by the givens, and solving for f, we get:
⇒ f = 8.6 Ghz (with two significative figures)
2)
- Assuming that the microwaves travel at a constant speed in a straight line (behaving like rays) , we can apply the definition of average velocity, as follows:
where v= c= speed of light in vacuum = 3*10⁸ m/s
d= distance between mountaintops = 52 km = 52*10³ m
⇒ t = 0.2 ms (with two significative figures)
Answer:
Upward force on the boy will be 1024 N
Explanation:
We have given mass of the boy m = 80 kg
Acceleration due to gravity 
It is given that elevator is ascending with acceleration of 
So net acceleration on the boy = 9.8+3 = 12.8 
( As the car elevator is moving ascending )
So upward force on the boy will be equal to F = m(g+a)
So 
So upward force on the boy will be 1024 N
Answer:
If one end of a metal bar is heated, the atoms at that end vibrate more than the atoms at the cold end. The vibration spreads along the bar from atom to atom.
Explanation:
The spread of heat in this way is called conduction. Metals are good conductors of heat.
Explanation:
Watts are defined as 1 Watt = 1 Joule per second (1W = 1 J/s)
which means that 1 kW = 1000 J/s. A Watt is the amount of energy (in Joules) that an electrical device (such as a light) is burning per second that it's running.
