Answer:

a

  \lambda  =  202.7 \  m

b

  w =  9.3 *10^{6} \  rad/s

c

  k = 0.031 m^{-1}

d

  E_{max} = 9.0 *10^{-3} \  V/m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

       The frequency of the radio station is  f=  1480 \  kHz  =  1480 *10^{3}\ Hz

         The magnitude of the magnetic field is  B  =  3.0* 10^{-11} \  T

Generally the wavelength is mathematically represented as

          \lambda  =  \frac{c}{f}

Here c is the speed of light with value  c =  3.0 *10^{8} \ m/s

So

        \lambda  =  \frac{3.0 *10^{8}}{ 1480 *10^{3}}

=>      \lambda  =  202.7 \  m

Generally the angular frequency is mathematically represented as

       w =  2 \pi * f

=>   w =  2 * 3.142 *  1480 *10^{3}

=>   w =  9.3 *10^{6} \  rad/s

Generally the wave number is mathematically represented as        

=>      k = \frac{2 \pi }{\lambda}

=>      k = \frac{2  *  3.142  }{ 202.7}

=>      k = 0.031 m^{-1}

Generally the amplitude of the electric field at this distance from the transmitter is mathematically represented as

         E_{max} = c *  B

=>      E_{max} = 3.0 *10^{8} *   3.0* 10^{-11}

=>      E_{max} = 9.0 *10^{-3} \  V/m

A paper airplane with mass 0.1 kg is flying 1.5 m above the ground with a speed of 2 m/s. What is the total mechanical energy of
Wewaii [24]
Total mechanical energy = kinetic energy + potential energy
E = KE + PE
E = ½mv² + mgh
E = ½(0.1 kg)(2 m/s)² + (0.1 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(1.5 m)
E = 0.2 J + 1.47 J
E = 1.67 J
