In which pan of the electromagnetic spectrum are each of these waves: (a) f=10.0kHz , (b) f==750nm , (C) f=1.25108Hz , (d) 0.30 nm
A microwave oven uses electromagnetic waves of frequency f=2.45109 to heat foods. The waves reflect from the inside walls of the oven to produce an interference pattern of standing waves whose antinodes are hot spots that can leave observable pit marks in some foods. The pit marks are measured to be 6.0 cm apart. Use the method employed by Heinrich Hertz to calculate the speed of electromagnetic waves this implies.
Calculate the ratio of the highest to lowest frequencies of electromagnetic waves the eye can see, given the wavelength range of visible light is from 380 to 760 nm. (Note that the ratio of highest to lowest frequencies the ear can hear is 1000.)
Illustrate that the size of details of an object that can be detected with electromagnetic waves is related to their wavelength, by comparing details observable with two different types (for example, radar and visible light or infrared and X-rays).
In which situation shown below will the electromagnetic wave be more successful in inducing a current in the wire? Explain.
When a bowl of soup is removed from a microwave oven, the soup is found to be steaming hot, s1wreas the bowl is only warm to the touch. Discuss the temperature changes that have occurred in terms of energy transfer.
At what distance does a 100-W lightbulb produce the same intensity of light as a 75-W lightbulb produces 10 m away? (Assume both have the same efficiency for converting electrical energy in the circuit into emitted electromagnetic energy.)
The filament in a clear incandescent light bulb radiates visible light at a power of 5.00 W. Model the glass part of the bulb as a sphere of radius r0=3.00cm and calculate the amount of electromagnetic energy from visible light inside the bulb.
Illustrate that the size of details of an object that can be detected with electromagnetic waves is related to their wavelength, by comparing details observable with two different types (for example, radar and visible light).
Can the human body detect electromagnetic radiation that is outside the visible region of the spectrum?
The Sun’s energy strikes Earth at an intensity of 1.37kW/m2 . Assume as a mode! approximation that all of the light is absorbed. (Actually, about 30% of the light intensity is reflected out into space.) (a) Calculate the total force that the Sun’s radiation exerts on Earth. (b) Compare this to the force of gravity between the Sun and Earth. Earth’s mass is 5.9721024 kg.
Why is it much easier to demonstrate in a student lab that a changing magnetic field induces an electric field than it is to demonstrate that a changing electric field produces a magnetic field?
