An airplane flying at a distance of 8.6 km from a radio transmitter receives a signal of intensity 9.1 μW/m2. What is the amplitude of the (a) electric and (b) magnetic component of the signal at the airplane? (c) If the transmitter radiates uniformly over a hemisphere, what is the transmission power?

Which of the following statements are true of solids? a.the particles do not vibrate. b.the particles are in a fixed location. c.they have strong intermolecular forces between the atoms or molecules. d.the particles have less kinetic energy than those of liquids or gases.

The speed of sound in ice, water, and steam is shown. what best explains the speed of sound in different states of matter? sound travels fastest in ice because energy is easier to transfer when the molecules are close together. sound travels slowest in steam because the sound has to move around the gas molecules that are far apart. sound travels fastest in ice because the temperature of solids is always greater, so the heat transfers the sound energy. sound travels slowest in steam because the pressure is so great the sound cannot travel though the steam particles.

If an electric circuit is not grounded it is best to reach out and touch it to provide the ground a.true or b.false
