Answer:

rock of mass m is dropped to the ground from a height h. A second rock, with mass 2m, is dropped from the same height. When the second rock strikes the ground, what is its kinetic energy? (a) Twice that of the first rock, (b) four times that of the first rock, (c) same as that of the first rock, (d) half as much as that of the first rock, (e) impossible to determine.

A certain 60.0 Hz AC power line radiates an electromagnetic wave having a maximum electric field strength of 11.6 kV/m.

yuradex [85]

Explanation:

Given that,

Frequency of the power line, f = 6 Hz

Value of maximum electric field strength of 11.6 kV/m

(a) The wavelength of this very low frequency electromagnetic wave is given by using relation as :

$c=f\lambda$

$\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8\ m/s}{60\ Hz}$

$\lambda=5\times 10^6\ m$

(b) As its can be seen that the wavelength of this wave is very high. It shows that it is a radio wave.

(c) The relation between the maximum magnetic field strength and maximum electric field strength is given by :

$B_0=\dfrac{E_0}{c}\\\\B_0=\dfrac{11.6\times 10^3}{3\times 10^8}\\\\B_0=3.86\times 10^{-5}\ T$

So, the maximum magnetic field strength is $3.86\times 10^{-5}\ T$ .

What is the difference between beta plus and minus

Minchanka [31]

Beta decay is very complex phenomena in natural radioactive decay. There are 3 types of Beta decay.

B+ decay (Beta plus or Beta positive or positron decay):

is the conversion of a proton into a neutron plus a positron and an electron neutrino.

B- decay (Beta negative or Beta nought):

is the conversion of a neutron into a proton plus an electron and a electron antineutrino.

Note: a positron is the a positive electron or the antiparticle of the electron.

Hope it helps
