<span>speed of slower=x; distance in 6 hours is 6x
 speed of larger=2x; distance in 6 hours is 12x
 12x-6x=204 miles
</span><span> 6x=204
 x=34 mph slower, 204 miles in 6 hours.
 2x=68 mph, faster, 408 miles in 6 hours, and difference is 204 miles</span>

At some instant and location the electric field associated with an electromagnetic wave in vacuum has the strength 96.5 V/m. Fin
prisoha [69]

Answer:

B = 32.17 x 10^-8 Tesla

u = 8.24 x 10^-8 J/m^3

P/A = 24.72 W/m^2

Explanation:

E = 96.5 V/m

velocity of light, c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

Let B be the magnetic field.

The relation between the electric field strength and the magnetic field strength is given by

B = E / c = 96.5 / (3 x 10^8) = 32.17 x 10^-8 Tesla

Let u be the energy density.

u = \frac{1}{2}\times \varepsilon _{0}E^{2}+\frac{1}{2\mu _{0}}B^{2}

u = \frac{1}{2}\times 8.854\times 10^{-12}\times 96.5\times 96.5+\frac{1}{2\times 4\times 3.14\times 10^{-7}}\times 32.17^{2}\times 10^{-16}

u = 8.24 x 10^-8 J/m^3

Let Power flow per unit area is

P/A = u x c = 8.24 x 10^-8 x 3 x 10^8 = 24.72 W/m^2

What happens to the distance between interference fringes if the separation between two slits is increased?
kolezko [41]

Answer:

It will decrease

Explanation:

The double-slit interference equation, which gives us the position y of a maximum on the screen (measured relative to the central position), is

y=\frac{n\lambda D}{d}

where

n is the order of the maximum

D is the distance between the slits and the screen

\lambda is the wavelength of the light

d is the separation between the two slits

From the formula, we see that y is inversely proportional to d: this means that if the separation between the slits is increased, the distance of each maximum from the central position (y) decreases, therefore the distance between the interference fringes will decrease.

Despite a very strong wind, a tennis player manages to hit a tennis ball with her racquet so that the ball passes over the net a
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

The downward force of gravity and the force exerted by the air.

Explanation:

Gravity, in a Newtonian Framework, acts at distance, so, the ball doesn't has to be connected to Earth to feel its gravitational pull (as we know by experience).

The racket only can exert a force in the ball when is touching it, so, once the ball has left the contact with the racket, there is no force by the "hit".

The air is always touching the ball on the atmosphere (even when physicist pretend that is not). So, there is drag from the wind, and a buoyant force  exerted by the air over the ball at every time.
