Answer:

Electric charge.

Explanation:

Coulomb, unit of electric charge in the metre - kilogram - second - ampere system, the basis of the SI system of physical units. It is abbreviated as C. The coulomb is defined as the quantity of electricity transported in one second by a current of one ampere.

Telephone signals are often transmitted over long distances by microwaves. What is the frequency of microwave radiation with a w

amm1812

Answer:

1) f= 8.6 GHz

2) t= 0.2 ms

Explanation:

Since microwaves are electromagnetic waves, they move at the same speed as the light in vacuum, i.e. 3*10⁸ m/s.
There exists a fixed relationship between the frequency (f) , the wavelength (λ) and the propagation speed in any wave, as follows:

$v = \lambda * f (1)$

Replacing by the givens, and solving for f, we get:

$f =\frac{c}{\lambda} =\frac{3e8m/s}{0.035m} = 8.57e9 Hz (2)$

⇒ f = 8.6 Ghz (with two significative figures)

Assuming that the microwaves travel at a constant speed in a straight line (behaving like rays) , we can apply the definition of average velocity, as follows:

$v =\frac{d}{t} (3)$

where v= c= speed of light in vacuum = 3*10⁸ m/s

d= distance between mountaintops = 52 km = 52*10³ m

Solving for t, we get:

$t = \frac{d}{c} = \frac{52e3m}{3e8m/s} = 17.3e-5 sec = 0.173e-3 sec = 0.173 ms (4)$

⇒ t = 0.2 ms (with two significative figures)

Jupiter's satellite Europa orbits Jupiter with a period of 3.55 d at an orbital radius of 6.71 108 m (assume the orbit to be cir

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

(a)

M = 1.898 x 10^27 kg

(b)

v = 13.74 km/s

Explanation:

Time period, T = 3.55 days = 3.55 x 24 x 3600 second = 306720 s

Radius, r = 6.71 x 10^8 m

G = 6.67 x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2

(a) $T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{r^{3}}{GM}}$

$M=\frac{4\pi ^{2}r^{3}}{GT^{2}}$

$M=\frac{4\times3.14^{2}\times 6.71^{3}\times 10^{24}}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 306720^{2}}$

M = 1.898 x 10^27 kg

(b) Let v be the orbital velocity

$v=\frac{2\pi r}{T}$

$v=\frac{2\times 3.14\times 6.71\times 10^{8}}{306720}$

v = 13739.5 m/s

v = 13.74 km/s

(b) The gravitational field E is given by

$E = \frac{GM}{r^{2}}$

$E = \frac{6.67\times10^{-11}\times 1.898\times 10^{27}}{6.71^{2}\times 10^{16}}$

E = 0.28 N/kg
