Answer:

The  magnitude of the  electric field intensity is  E =  7.89  *10^{6} \ V/m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  voltage is  \epsilon     =  72.7 \ mV  =  72.7 *10^{-3}  V

    The  thickness of the membrane is  t =  9.22 \ nm  =  9.22 *10^{-9} \ m

     

Generally the electric field intensity is mathematically represented as

                E =  \frac{\epsilon }{t}

 substituting values

                E =  \frac{72.7 *10^{-3} }{9.22 *10^{-9}}

                E =  7.89  *10^{6} \ V/m

A pendulum oscillates 12 times in 4 seconds. what is the length of the pendulum?
seraphim [82]

Answer:

L = 2.8 cm

Explanation:

Period T = 4 / 12 = 1/3 s

T = 2π√(L/g)

L = (T/2π)²g

L = ((1/3)/2π)²9.8 = 0.02758... ≈ 2.8 cm

Sort the sentences based on whether they describe radio waves, visible light waves, or both.
valentina_108 [34]

The electromagnetic spectrum includes a continuous spectrum of wavelengths that include:

Radio waves, microwaves, infrared light, visible, ultraviolet, X-rays, gamma rays

The wavelength decreases from radio waves to gamma rays, whereas the energy increases along the same direction.

In the given example, radio waves have a lower energy and higher wavelength than visible light. The latter can be perceived by the human eye, whereas radio waves are not visible to the human eye.

1) They have colors = visible light

2) They can travel in a vacuum  = both

3) They have energy = both

4) They’re used to learn about  dust and gas clouds = radio waves

5) They’re used to find the  temperature of stars  = visible light

6)They’re invisible = radio waves

What does convection mean
Sladkaya [172]
Convection is the movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder, denser material to sink under the influence of gravity, which consequently results in transfer of heat

Question 4 - If Angelica starts out at 30m/s, and in 16 s speeds up to 84 m/s, what is her acceleration?
Triss [41]

Answer:

C. 3.375 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object can be found using the equation:

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time it takes for the velocity to change from u to v

In this problem:

u = 30 m/s is the initial velocity of Angelica

v = 84 m/s is the final velocity

t is the time

Substituting into the equation, we find the acceleration:

a=\frac{84-30}{16}=3.375 m/s^2
