Radar uses radio waves of a wavelength of 2.4 ${\rm m}$ . The time interval for one radiation pulse is 100 times larger than t

blondinia [14]

Answer:

120 m

Explanation:

Given:

wavelength 'λ' = 2.4m

pulse width 'τ'= 100T ('T' is the time of one oscillation)

The below inequality express the range of distances to an object that radar can detect

τc/2 < x < Tc/2 ---->eq(1)

Where, τc/2 is the shortest distance

First we'll calculate Frequency 'f' in order to determine time of one oscillation 'T'

f = c/λ (c= speed of light i.e 3 x $10^{8}$ m/s)

f= 3 x $10^{8}$ / 2.4

f=1.25 x $10^{8}$ hz.

As, T= 1/f

time of one oscillation T= 1/1.25 x $10^{8}$

T= 8 x $10^{-9}$ s

It was given that pulse width 'τ'= 100T

τ= 100 x 8 x $10^{-9}$ => 800 x $10^{-9}$ s

From eq(1), we can conclude that the shortest distance to an object that this radar can detect:

$x_{min}$ = τc/2 => (800 x $10^{-9}$ x 3 x $10^{8}$ )/2

$x_{min}$ =120m

Joan stirred a pot of hot soup with a metal spoon. after a minute or two, the handle of the spoon became too hot to hold. what k

natima [27]

When the metal spoon comes in contact with the hot soup, heat transfer from hot soup to the spoon because of difference in temperature of the two. The kind of heat transfer represented here is conduction. In conduction, heat is transferred from a region of higher temperature to a region of lower temperature when there is a physical contact between the two.

A 1.80-m string of weight 0.0126 N is tied to the ceiling at its upper end, and the lower end supports a weight W. Neglect the v

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

W = 0.135 N

Explanation:

Given:

- y (x, t) = 8.50*cos(172*x -2730*t)

- Weight of string m*g = 0.0126 N

- Attached weight = W

Find:

The attached weight W given that Tension and W are equal.

Solution:

The general form of standing mechanical waves is given by:

y (x, t) = A*cos(k*x -w*t)

Where k = stiffness and w = angular frequency

Hence,

k = 172 and w = 2730

- Calculate wave speed V:

V = w / k = 2730 / 172 = 13.78 m/s

- Tension in the string T:

T = Y*V^2

where Y: is the mass per unit length of the string.

- The tension T and weight attached W are equal:

T = W = Y*V^2 = (w/L*g)*V^2

W = (0.0126 / 1.8*9.81)*(13.78)^2

W = 0.135 N

An inductor is connected across an ac source. suppose the frequency of the source is doubled. what happens to the inductive reac

MaRussiya [10]

<span>If an inductor is connected across an ac source and suppose the frequency of the source is doubled, then t</span>he inductive reactance of the inductor is also doubled. The inductive reactance (XL) is the t<span>he opposition to current flowing through a coil in an AC circuit, the </span>impedance measured in Ohms and can be calculated with the following formula:
XL=2*pi*f*L,
where f is the frequency. So, if the frequency is doubled than also the inductive reactance is doubled.

TEA [102]

Answer:

(a) $P_{power}=2688.53Watt$

(b) $P_{power}=3.605hp$

Explanation:

For part (a)

As we know that

$P_{power}=\frac{W_{work}}{t_{time}}\\As\\ W=1/2(mv_{f}^{2}-mv_{o}^{2} )So\\P_{power}=\frac{1/2(mv_{f}^{2}-mv_{o}^{2} )}{t}\\ P_{power}=\frac{1/2(56.0kg*(14.2m/s)^2-56.0kg*(0m/s)^2)}{2.1s} \\P_{power}=2688.53Watt$

For part (b)

The power in unit of horsepower is:

$P_{power}=(2688.53Watt)(\frac{1hp}{745.7Watt} )\\P_{power}=3.605hp$
