The electromagnetic waves do not need any medium to travel as they are not mechanical in nature. They propagate in the form of electric and magnetic energy having a perpendicular vector of its velocity wave

A system undergoes a two-step process. In the first step, the internal energy of the system increases by 222 J when 150 J of wor

joja [24]

Answer:0 J

Explanation:

Given

For first step

change in internal Energy of the system is $\Delta U_1=222 J$

Work done on the system $W_1=-150 J$

For second step

change in internal Energy of the system is $\Delta U_2=123 J$

Work done on the system $W_2=-195 J$

Work done on the system is considered as Positive and vice-versa.

and from first law of thermodynamics

$Q=\Delta U+W$

for first step

$Q_1=222-150=72 J$

$Q_2=123-195=-72 J$

overall heat added $=Q_1+Q_2$

$Q_{net}=72-72 =0$

For overall Process Heat added is 0 J

A space vehicle is traveling at 3760 km/h relative to Earth when the exhausted rocket motor is disengaged and sent backward. The

almond37 [142]

Answer:

3688 km/h

Explanation:

Given:-

- The speed of vehicle relative to earth, vs_e = 3760 km/h

- The relative speed of command and motor, v_c/m = 90 km/h

- The mass of command = m

- The mass of motor = 4m

Find:-

What is the speed of the command module relative to Earth just after the separation?

Solution:-

- Consider the space vehicle as a system that detaches itself into two parts ( command and motor ). We will assume that the gravitational pull due to Earth on the space vehicle is negligible. With that assumption we have our system in isolation. We will apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum on the system as follows:

Initial momentum = Final momentum

Pi = Pf

M*vs_e = m*vc_e + 4m*vm_e

Where,

M = m + 4m = 5m

vc_e = Velocity of command relative to earth

vm_e = Velocity of motor relative to earth

- We will develop a relation of velocities of command and motor in the frame of earth as follows:

vm_e = v_c/m + vc_e

- Substituting (vm_e) from Equation 2 into Equation 1, we have:

5m*vs_e = m*vc_e + 4m*(v_c/m + vc_e)

5m*vs_e = 5m*vc_e + 4m*(v_c/m)

- Solve for vc_e:

5m*vs_e - 4m*(v_c/m) = 5m*vc_e

vs_e - 0.8*(v_c/m) = vc_e

- Plug in values and evaluate vc_e:

vc_e = 3760 - 0.8*(90)

vc_e = 3,688 km/h

During science class, while studying mixtures, you mix together iron filings and sand. Your teacher challenges you to separate t

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer : Use a magnet to pull out the iron filings as they are attracted to a magnet

Explanation : we use the magnet to separate the sand from the iron filing. Because the magnet has an attraction power.

We can say that we can use the magnet to attract the iron filings out of the mixture because iron is magnetic solid, but sand will not attract because sand is not magnetic solid.

So, we use a magnet to pull out the iron filings as they are attracted to a magnet.
