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.

Answer:

Magnitude of the net force on q₁-

Fn₁=1403 N

Magnitude of the net force on q₂+

Fn₂= 810 N

Magnitude of the net force on q₃+

Fn₃= 810 N

Explanation:

Look at the attached graphic:

The charges of the same sign exert forces of repulsion and the charges of   opposite sign exert forces of attraction.

Each of the charges experiences 2 forces and these forces are equal and we calculate them with Coulomb's law:

F= (k*q*q)/(d)²

F= (9*10⁹*3*10⁻⁶*3*10⁻⁶)(0.01)² =810N

Magnitude of the net force on q₁-

Fn₁x= 0

Fn₁y= 2*F*sin60 = 2*810*sin60° = 1403 N

Fn₁=1403 N

Magnitude of the net force on q₃+

Fn₃x= 810- 810 cos 60° = 405 N

Fn₃y= 810*sin 60° = 701.5 N

Fn_{3} = \sqrt{405^{2}+701.5^{2}  }

Fn₃ = 810 N

Magnitude of the net force on q₂+

Fn₂ = Fn₃ = 810 N

An electron is accelerated by a 3.6 kv potential difference. the charge on an electron is 1.60218 × 10−19 c and its mass is 9.10
katen-ka-za [31]
By definition, the potential energy is:
 U = qV
 Where,
 q: load
 V: voltage.
 Then, the kinetic energy is:
 K = mv ^ 2/2
 Where,
 m: mass
 v: speed.
 As the power energy is converted into kinetic energy, we have then:
 U = K
 Equating equations:
 qV = mv ^ 2/2
 From here, we clear the speed:
 v = root (2qV / m)
 Substituting values we have:
 v = root ((2 * (1.60218 × 10 ^ -19) * 3600) /9.10939×10^-31))
 v = 3.56 × 10 ^ 7 m / s
 Then, the centripetal force is:
 Fc = Fm
 mv ^ 2 / r = qvB
 By clearing the magnetic field we have:
 B = mv / qr
 Substituting values:
 B = (9.10939 × 10 ^ -31) * (3.56 × 10 ^ 7) / (1.60218 × 10 ^ -19) * 0.059
 B = 3.43 × 10 ^ -3 T
 Answer:
 
A magnetic field that must be experienced by the electron is:
 
B = 3.43 × 10 ^ -3 T
