Consider regions of the EM spectrum.
In order to study the structure of a crystalline solid, you want to illuminate it with EM radiation whose wavelength is the same as the spacing of the atoms in the crystal (0.190 nm).
A) What is the frequency of the EM radiation in Hertz?
B) In what part of the EM spectrum (radio, visible, etc.) does it lie?
Suppose a radio wave has a wavelength of 2.00 meters. What it the frequency of the
radiation? It may be helpful to recall that v = AF for electromagnetic waves, while
v = c = 3.00 × 108 m/s.

- The wavelengths of AM radio waves are so long—more than 200 m—that it would be impractical to make a (1)/(4) wavelength antenna to detect their electric field. Instead, AM radios detect the magnetic field of the wave using a coil of wire. The changing flux of the wave’s magnetic field induces an emf in the coil that is detected and amplified by the receiver. If you are standing to the west of an AM station that is broadcasting a vertically polarized wave, in which direction should the axis of the coil be oriented in order to best detect the wave?arrow_forwardIn reading the instruction manual that came with your garage-door opener, you see that the transmitter unit in your car produces a 250 mW signal and that the receiver unit is supposed to respond to a radio wave of the correct frequency if the electric field amplitude exceeds 0.10 V/m. You wonder if this is really true. To find out, you put fresh batteries in the transmitter and start walking away from your garage while opening and closing the door. Your garage door finally fails to respond when you’re 42 m away. Are the manufacturer’s claims true?arrow_forwardIn the U.S., two different frequency ranges are allocated for over-the-air radio broadcast: the AM radio band, in the range 540-1600 kHz, and the FM radio band, in the range 88-108 MHz.

- The image attached is a neat copy of a photo of an electricity meter for a domestic solar array. The display shows the energy we sold to the electricity company on a winter's day. Each box is 100 W high and 1 hr wide. At the radius of the earth's orbit, the intensity of sunlight is I=1.4 kW.m–2 . (This means that 1.4 kW.m–2 passes through 1 square metre at right angles to the sun's rays.) The solar array in the previous question consists of 10 panels, each with area A=1.6 m2 . Under optimal conditions - with the sun at right angles to the array and no clouds in the sky - the array produces Pout=2.3 kW . What is the efficiency of the array?
