The global positioning system (GPS) uses electromagnetic waves sent between computer devices on Earth and satellites in space to

automatically determine the exact position of the computer device on Earth. In order to create this technology, engineers had to apply Einstein’s theory of relativity, which explains how electromagnetic waves change direction in space.
During which stage of developing the global positioning system did engineers first apply the theory of relativity to design the product?

Explain in details the concept of economic geography​
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

In the words of Hartshorn and Alexander: “Economic Geography is the study of the spatial variation on the earth’s surface of activities related to producing, exchanging and consuming goods and services. Whenever possible the goal is to develop generalizations and theories to account for these spatial variations.”

At noon on a clear day, sunlight reaches the earth\'s surface at Madison, Wisconsin, with an average power of approximately 3.00
alexira [117]
Energy of a wave:
E = nhc/λ
3000 = (n x 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ x 3 x 10⁸)/(510 x 10⁻⁹)
n = 7.69 x 10 ²¹ photons per second per meter²
2.70 cm² = 2.70/10,000 m²
= 2.7 x 10⁻⁴
Photons per second = 7.69 x 10 ²¹ x 2.7 x 10⁻⁴
= 2.08 x 10¹⁸ photons per second

A ball rolls down the hill which has a vertical height of 15 m. Ignoring friction what would be the gravitational potential ener
trasher [3.6K]

a) Potential energy: 147 m [J]

The gravitational potential energy of an object is given by

U=mgh

where

m is its mass

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

h is the height of the object above the ground

In this problem,

h = 15 m

We call 'm' the mass of the ball, since we don't know it

So, the potential energy of the ball at the top of the hill is

U=(m)(9.8)(15)=147 m (J)

b) Velocity of the ball at the bottom of the hill: 17.1 m/s

According to the law of conservation of energy, in absence of friction all the potential energy of the ball is converted into kinetic energy as the ball reaches the bottom of the hill. Therefore we can write:

U=K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

v is the final velocity of the ball

We know from part a) that

U = 147 m

Substituting into the equation above,

147 m = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

And re-arranging for v, we find the velocity:

v=\sqrt{2\cdot 147}=17.1 m/s
