25.3 Applications of
** Radar parameters Radar is characterized by a pulse width and pulse repetition period. (a) Explain what these words mean and how you can use them to estimate the range of distances that radar can measure. (b) If you wish to be able to detect objects at a close distance, what parameter of the radar should you change and how? If you wish to be able to detect objects at a long distance, what parameter of the radar should you change and how?

- Wave from a wire antenna Puntos:3 An electromagnetic wave from a wire antenna travels (from the reader) toward the plane of the paper. At time t = 0.0 s it strikes the paper at normal incidence. At point O and t = 0.0 s, the magnetic field vector has its maximum value, 4.84×10-8 T, pointing in the negative y-direction. The frequency of this wave is 1.83x106 Hz. B (t=0) What is the x-component of the associated electric field E at time t = 0.0 s? (Use the right-hand rule to determine the direction of E, and hence the sign of the x- component.) 0.0886N/C The B-field and the E-field magnitudes are related via the speed of light. The directions of E, B, and the wave propagation direction are related by the right-hand rule. Enviar Respuesta Incorrecto.

It is obtained from the variation of the magnetic flux, for example, between the plates of a capacitor. II. The displacement current establishes a symmetry between the electric and magnetic fields by indicating that, just as the temporal variations of the magnetic field produce an electric field (Faraday's Law), it is possible that magnetic fields are created from temporal variations of the electric field . III. The displacement current was fundamental to the understanding that light is an electromagnetic wave. IV. Ampere's Law works independently of the existence of the Maxwell displacement current, as long as we consider only stationary electrical currents. Choose an option:A. II, III and IV correct.B. II and III correct.C. I, II and III correct.D. I, II and IV correct.E. I and IV correct.F. Only II is correct.G. All incorrect.H. Only III is correct.arrow_forward

- I Review | Constants Periodic Table Microphones are used to convert sound vibrations to electrical signals. In one kind of microphone, sound waves move a coil of wire up and down in a magnetic field, as shown in (Figure 1). The coil shown has a diameter of 1.8 cm and has Part A 100 turns; the 0.010 T magnetic field points radially out from the north pole to the south. If the microphone's emf at some instant is 20 mV, what is the speed of the coil?

In Ampere’s law the displacement currents and conduction currents have the same unit. 2. If the electric field (in Ampere’s law) changes with time then there is a displacement current. 3. Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves. 4. (Ampere's law) In an oscillating LC circuit, no displacement current exists between the capacitors plates when the capacitor is momentarily unchanged. 5. Electric and magnetic fields of an electromagnetic wave in free space are in phase. 6.Infrared waves has higher frequency than red waves. 7.arrow_forwardDirections: Below are the applications of radio waves and microwaves.
