It turns out that the depth in the ocean to which airborne electromagnetic signals can be detected grows with the wavelength. Th

erefore, the military got the idea of using very long wavelengths corresponding to about 30 Hz to communicate with submarines throughout the world. If we want to have an antenna that is about one-half wavelength long, how long would that be

Wavelength = speed / frequency.

Wavelength = 3x10^8 m/s / 30 hz

Wavelength = 10 million meters

1/2 wavelength = 5 million meters

(that's about 3,100 miles)

I'm pretty sure the frequency is wrong in the question.

I think it's actually 30 kHz, not 30 Hz.

That makes the antenna about 3.1 miles long.

A monkey running through the jungle goes 0.198 km straight to the East, then turns 15.8° deflection from straight East toward th
inn [45]

Answer:

|\vec r|=339.82\ m

\theta=-6.67^o

Explanation:

<u>Displacement </u>

It's a vector magnitude that measures the space traveled by a particle between an initial and a final position. The total displacement can be obtained by adding the vectors of each individual displacement. In the case of two displacements:

\vec r=\vec r_1+\vec r_2

Given a vector as its polar coordinates (r,\theta), the corresponding rectangular coordinates are computed with

x=rcos\theta

y=rsin\theta

And the vector is expressed as

\vec z==

The monkey first makes a displacement given by (0.198 km,0°). The angle is 0 because it goes to the East, the zero-reference for angles. Thus the first displacement is

\vec r_1==\ km=\ m

The second move is (145 m , -15.8°). The angle is negative because it points South of East. The second displacement is

\vec r_2==\ m

The total displacement is

\vec r=\ m+\ m

\vec r=\ m

In (magnitude,angle) form:

|\vec r|=\sqrt{337.52^2+(-39.48)^2}=339.82\ m

\boxed{|\vec r|=339.82\ m}

\displaystyle tan\theta=\frac{-39.48}{337.52}=-0.1169

\boxed{\theta=-6.67^o}

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Technician A

Explanation:

It is seen that a tire pressure will increase or decrease 1 psi for each 10^{\circ} F  change in temperature.

For Technician B vehicle pressure should not be adjusted after tire has been warmed as the warm air may increase the pressure but it will be auto adjusted as  the temperature falls to normal .
