Which type of electromagnetic radiation is commonly used for long-distance communications?

Physics
1 answer:
Citrus2011 [14]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

B. Radio waves

Explanation:

Radio waves are transmitted easily through air. They do not cause damage if absorbed by the human body, and they can be reflected to change their direction. These properties make them ideal for communications.

Hope this helps!!

A certain first-order reaction is 58% complete in 95 s. What are the values of the rate constant and the half-life for this proc
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

0.005734 s^{-1} and 20.86 seconds are the values of the rate constant and the half-life for this process respectively..

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

a_o=a\times e^{-kt}

where,

k = rate constant  

t = age of sample

a_o = let initial amount of the reactant  

a = amount left after decay process  

We have :

a_o=x

a=58\%\times x=0.58x

t = 95 s

0.58x=x\times e^{-k\times 95 s}

\k= 0.005734 s^{-1}

Half life is given by for first order kinetics::

t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{k}

=\frac{0.693}{0.005734 s^{-1}}=120.86 s

0.005734 s^{-1} and 20.86 seconds are the values of the rate constant and the half-life for this process respectively..

James took two pea plants, placing one in a dark closet and the other on a sunny window sill. Both are located in air-conditione
Fudgin [204]

The constant is the temperature of the air that the plants get.

The independent variable is the thing that YOU control.  That's the amount of sunlight each plant gets.

The <em>dependent variable</em> is anything that's caused by changes in the independent variable.  That's the growth of the plants.

A small plane flies at a speed of 102 km/h in still air. Suppose the wind blows out from the west (with the air moving east) at
Semmy [17]

Answer:

2.68 hours

Explanation:

A.) Suppose the wind blows out from the west (with the air moving east). The pilot should then head her plane to northwest direction to move directly north.

B.) Given that plane flies at a speed of 102 km/h in still air. And the wind blows out from the west (with the air moving east) at a speed of 46 km/h.

The plan resultant speed can be calculated by using pythagorean theorem.

Resultant Speed = Sqrt( 102^2 + 46^2 )

Resultant Speed = Sqrt( 12520)

Resultant speed = 111.89 km/h

From the definition of speed,

Speed = distance/time

Where distance = 300 km

Substitute the resultant speed and the distance into the formula.

111.89 = 300/time

Time = 300/111.89

Time = 2.68 hours

Therefore, it take her 2.68 hours to reach a point 300 km directly north of her srarting point

A grandfather clock is "losing" time because its pendulum moves too slowly. Assume that the pendulum is a massive bob at the end
IgorC [24]

Answer:

d) shortening the string

Explanation:

Time period of a pendulum clock is dependent on two factors namely:length and acceleration due to gravity.

When a clock loses time, the time period of the pendulum clock increases.

This however can be corrected by decreasing the length of the pendulum.The time period of the pendulum clock is not dependent on the mass of the bob. The time period of the pendulum clock can be corrected only by changing the length of the pendulum string.
