Answer:Sound waves are longitudinal waves that is, are transmitted in the same direction of oscillation of the particles in the medium. Electromagnetic waves are transverse ie, the electric and magnetic fields, which are perpendicular to each other, oscillate perpendicularly to the direction of wave propagation.

Once juno reaches jupiter, what is the minimum amount of time it takes for the transmitted signals to travel from the spacecraft

Komok [63]

In very very very round figures . . .

-- Jupiter is about 5.2 times as far from the sun as the earth is.

-- So when Jupiter and the EARTH are aligned in both orbits, Jupiter is about

(4.2) x (150 million kilometers) = 630 million kilometers

Time = (distance) / (speed)

The speed of light and radio is 300,000 km/second

Time = (630 million / 300 thousand)

<em>Time = 2,100 seconds</em>

That's 35 minutes.

A glass bottle of soda is sealed with a screw cap. The absolute pressure of the carbon dioxide inside the bottle is 1.90 x 105 P

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

The magnitude of the force is 34.59 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Inside pressure $P_{in}= 1.90\times10^{5}\ Pa$

Area $A=3.90\times10^{-4}\ m^2$

Outside pressure = 1 atm

We need to calculate the magnitude of the force

Using formula of force

$F_{net}=F_{in}-F_{out}$

$F_{net}=(P_{in}-P_{out})A$

Where, $P_{in}$ =inside Pressure

$P_{out}$ =outside Pressure

A = area

Put the value into the formula

$F_{net}=(1.90\times10^{5}-1.013\times10^{5})3.90\times10^{-4}$

$F_{net}=34.59\ N$

Hence, The magnitude of the force is 34.59 N.

Radio waves transmitted through space at 3.00 ✕ 108 m/s by the Voyager spacecraft have a wavelength of 0.137 m. What is their fr

fredd [130]

Answer:

Frequency, $f=2.18\times 10^9\ Hz$

Explanation:

We have,

Speed of radio waves is $3\times 10^8\ m/s$

Wavelength of radio waves is $\lambda=0.137\ m$

It is required to find the frequency of the radio waves. The speed of a wave is given by :

$v=f\lambda\\\\f=\dfrac{v}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{0.137}\\\\f=2.18\times 10^9\ Hz$

So, the frequency of the radio wave is $2.18\times 10^9\ Hz$ .
