Imagine that the satellite described in the problem introduction is used to transmit television signals. you have a satellite tv reciever consisting of a circular dish of radius r which focuses the electromagnetic energy incident from the satellite onto a receiver which has a surface area of 5 cm2. how large does the radius r of the dish have to be to achieve an electric field vector amplitude of 0.1 mv/m at the receiver? for simplicity, assume that your house is located directly beneath the satellite (i. e. the situation you calculated in the first part), that the dish reflects all of the incident signal onto the receiver, and that there are no losses associated with the reception process. the dish has a curvature, but the radius r refers to the projection of the dish into the plane perpendicular to the direction of the incoming signal. give your answer in centimeters, to two significant figures.

With the simplified model of the eye, what corrective lens (specified by focal length as measured in air) would be needed to enable a person underwater to focus an infinitely distant object? (be careful-the focal length of a lens underwater is not the same as in air! assume that the corrective lens has a refractive index of 1.62 and that the lens is used in eyeglasses, not goggles, so there is water on both sides of the lens. assume that the eyeglasses are 1.90

The second largest public utility in the nation is the sole provider of electricity in 32 counties of southern florida. to meet the monthly demand for electricity in these counties, which is given by the inverse demand function p = 1,200 – 4q, the utility company has set up two electric generating facilities: q1 kilowatts are produced at facility 1, and q2 kilowatts are produced at facility 2 (so q = q1 + q2). the costs of producing electricity at each facility are given by c1(q1) = 8,000 + 6q12 and c2(q2) = 6,000 + 3q22, respectively. determine the profit-maximizing amounts of electricity to produce at the two facilities, the optimal price, and the utility company’s profit
