Why is it important to study electromagnetic waves?

1 answer:

3 0

The study of EM is essential to understanding the properties of light, its propagation through tissue, scattering and absorption effects, and changes in the state of polarization. ... Since light travels much faster than sound, detection of the reflected EM radiation is performed with interferometry.

Use the terms "force", "weight", "mass", and "inertia" to explain why it is easier to tackle a 220 lb football player than a 288

Tomtit [17]

<span><u>Answer </u>
The mass of 220 lb football has less than 288 lb football. So, it will be easier to move it since it will require less force. The heavy football will have a bigger momentum. Since 288 lb has more weight than 220 lb, it will have bigger inertia making it difficult for the players to stop it.
This makes it easier to tackle 220 lb football than 288 lb football.

A circular loop of wire with a diameter of 0.626 m is rotated in a uniform electric field to a position where the electric flux

Mila [183]

Answer:

C) 2.44 × 106 N/C

Explanation:

The electric flux through a circular loop of wire is given by

$\Phi = EA cos \theta$

where

E is the electric field

A is the cross-sectional area

$\theta$ is the angle between the direction of the electric field and the normal to A

The flux is maximum when $\theta=0^{\circ}$ , so we are in this situation and therefore $cos \theta =1$ , so we can write

$\Phi = EA$

Here we have:

$\Phi = 7.50\cdot 10^5 N/m^2 C$ is the flux

d = 0.626 m is the diameter of the coil, so the radius is

r = 0.313 m

and so the area is

$A=\pi r^2 = \pi (0.313 m)^2=0.308 m^2$

And so, we can find the magnitude of the electric field:

$E=\frac{\Phi}{A}=\frac{7.50\cdot 10^5 Nm^2/C}{0.308 m^2}=2.44\cdot 10^6 N/C$

The haystack maker tractor lifted 120 kg of grass to a height of 5 meters in 6 seconds. Calculate the power of the haystack make

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

1000 Joules per second.

Explanation:

To lift that much grass 5 meters higher than it was before the tractor did work that is the product of the (force needed to overdo gravity) and (displacement):

$W = mg\Delta h=120kg\cdot 10\frac{m}{s^2}\cdot 5m = 6000J$

Power is work over the amount of time:

$P = \frac{W}{\Delta t}=\frac{6000J}{6 s} = 1000 \frac{J}{s}$

A 477 g portion of soup is heated in a microwave oven from 25°C to 90°C, using radiation with a wavelength of 1.55 × 10⁻² m. Ass

zheka24 [161]

To solve this problem we will use the heat transfer equations, to determine the amount of heat added to the body. Subsequently, through the energy ratio given by Plank, we will calculate the energy of each of the photons. The relationship between total energy and unit energy will allow us to determine the number of photons

The mass of water in the soup is 477g

The change in temperate is

$\Delta T = (90+273K)-(25+273K) = 65K$
