Radio waves, gamma-rays, visible light, and all the other parts of the electromagnetic spectrum are electromagnetic ... The different types of radiation are defined by the the amount of energy found in the photons.

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

E=3.5(8.98*10^{6}x-2.69*10^{15}t)

B=1.17*10^{-8}(8.98*10^{6}x-2.69*10^{15}t)

Explanation:

The electric field equation of a electromagnetic wave is given by:

E=E_{max}(kx-\omega t) (1)

  • E(max) is the maximun value of E, it means the amplitude of the wave.
  • k is the wave number
  • ω is the angular frequency

We know that the wave length is λ = 700 nm and the peak electric field magnitude of 3.5 V/m, this value is correspond a E(max).

By definition:

k=\frac{2\pi}{\lambda}            

k=8.98*10^{6} [rad/m]      

And the relation between λ and f is:                

c=\lambda f

f=\frac{c}{\lambda}

f=\frac{3*10^{8}}{700*10^{-9}}

f=4.28*10^{14}

The angular frequency equation is:

\omega=2\pi f

\omega=2\pi*4.28*10^{14}

\omega=2.69*10^{15} [rad/s]

Therefore, the E equation, suing (1), will be:

E=3.5(8.98*10^{6}x-2.69*10^{15}t) (2)

For the magnetic field we have the next equation:

B=B_{max}(kx-\omega t) (3)

It is the same as E. Here we just need to find B(max).

We can use this equation:

E_{max}=cB_{max}

B_{max}=\frac{E_{max}}{c}=\frac{3.5}{3*10^{8}}

B_{max}=1.17*10^{-8}T

Putting this in (3), finally we will have:

B=1.17*10^{-8}(8.98*10^{6}x-2.69*10^{15}t) (4)

I hope it helps you!

Which rational number could be graphed between 0 and 1?A number line going from negative 5 to positive 3 in increments of 1.Nega
vovikov84 [41]

In order to find which rational number is between 0 and 1, let's convert them into their decimal form:

\begin{gathered} \text{negative one-half:} \\ -\frac{1}{2}=-0.5 \\  \\ \text{one}-\text{fourth:} \\ \frac{1}{4}=0.25 \\  \\ \text{three}-\text{halves:} \\ 3\cdot\frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}=1.5 \\  \\ 1.75 \end{gathered}

Looking at the numbers in their decimal form, we can see that the number between 0 and 1 is one-fourth, therefore the correct option is the second one.

Four charges with equal magnitudes of 10.6 × 10-12 C are placed at the corners of a rectangle. The lengths of the sides of the r
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Figure a. E_net = 99.518 N/C

Figure b. E_net = 177.151 N / C

Explanation:

Given:

- Attachment for figures missing in the question.

- The dimensions for rectangle are = 7.79 x 3.99 cm

- All four charges have equal magnitude Q = 10.6*10^-12 C

Find:

Find the magnitude of the electric field at the center of the rectangle in Figures a and b.

Solution:

- The Electric field generated by an charged particle Q at a distance r is given by:

                                         E = k*Q / r^2

- Where, k is the coulomb's constant = 8.99 * 10^9

Part a)

- First we see that the charges +Q_1 and +Q_3 produce and electric field equal but opposite in nature. So the sum of Electric fields:

                                 E_1 + E_3 = 0

- For Charges -Q_2 and +Q_4, they are equal in nature but act in the same direction towards the negative charge -Q_2. Hence, the net Electric Field at center of the rectangle can be given as:

                                  E_net = E_2 + E_4

                                  E_2 = E_4

                                  E_net = 2*E = 2*k*Q / r^2

- The distance r from each corner to mid-point of the rectangle is constant. It can be evaluated by Pythagoras Theorem as follows:

                                  r = sqrt ( (7.79/200)^2 + (3.99/200)^2 )

                                  r = sqrt ( 1.9151*10^-3 ) = 0.043762 m

- Plug the values in the E_net expression developed above:

                                  E_net = 2*(8.99*10^9)*(10.6*10^-12) / 1.9151*10^-3

                                 E_net = 99.518 N/C

Part b)

- Similarly for Figure b, for Charges -Q_2 and +Q_4, they are equal in nature but act in the same direction towards the negative charge -Q_2. Also, Charges -Q_1 and +Q_3, they are equal in nature but act in the same direction towards the negative charge -Q_1. These Electric fields are equal in magnitude to what we calculated in part a).

- To find the vector sum of two Electric Fields E_1,3 and E_2,4 we see the horizontal components of each cancels each other out. While the vertical components E_1,3 and E_2,4 are equal in magnitude and direction.

Hence,

                                  E_net = 2*E_part(a)*cos(Q)

- Where, Q is the angle between resultant, vertical in direction, and each of the electric field. We can calculate Q using trigonometry as follows:

                                  Q = arctan ( 3.99 / 7.79 ) = 27.12 degrees.

- Now, compute the net electric field E_net:

                                  E_net = 2*(99.518)*cos(27.12)

                                  E_net = 177.151 N / C
