Chapter 29, Problem 14E

A radio wave’s electric field is given by the expression E = E sin (kz − ωt) × (î + ĵ). (a) Find the peak electric field. (b) Give a unit vector in the direction of the magnetic field at a place and time where sin(kz − ωt) is positive.

Part C Find the height yi from which the rock was launched. Express your answer in meters to three significant figures.                                     Learning Goal: To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 4.1 for projectile motion problems. A rock thrown with speed 12.0 m/s and launch angle 30.0 ∘ (above the horizontal) travels a horizontal distance of d = 19.0 m before hitting the ground. From what height was the rock thrown? Use the value g = 9.800 m/s2 for the free-fall acceleration.     PROBLEM-SOLVING STRATEGY 4.1 Projectile motion problems MODEL: Is it reasonable to ignore air resistance? If so, use the projectile motion model. VISUALIZE: Establish a coordinate system with the x-axis horizontal and the y-axis vertical. Define symbols and identify what the problem is trying to find. For a launch at angle θ, the initial velocity components are vix=v0cosθ and viy=v0sinθ. SOLVE: The acceleration is known: ax=0 and ay=−g. Thus, the problem becomes one of…
