The intensity of the electromagnetic wave in terms of the electric field is 0.00298 W/m² and the intensity of the electromagnetic wave in terms of the magnetic field is 1.193x10⁻⁶ W/m².

The intensity of the electromagnetic wave is related to the electric field as well as to the magnetic field.

a) Intensity of the electromagnetic wave for the electromagnetic field.

The intensity of the electromagnetic wave (I) in terms of the electromagnetic field is given by:

$I = \frac{E^{2}*c*\epsilon_{0}}{2}$ (1)

Where:

c: is the speed of light = 3.00*10⁸ m/s

E: is the magnitude of the electric field = 1.5 V/m

ε₀: is the permittivity of free space = 8.85*10⁻¹² C²/Nm²

Hence, the intensity of the electromagnetic wave (eq 1) is:

$I = \frac{(1.5 V/m)^{2}*3.00 \cdot 10^{8} m/s*8.85 \cdot 10^{-12} C^{2}/(N*m^{2})}{2} = 0.00298 W/m^{2}$

b) Intensity of the electromagnetic wave for the magnetic field

We can calculate the intensity of the electromagnetic wave (I) in terms of the magnetic field with the following equation:

$I = \frac{cB^{2}}{2\mu_{0}}$ (2)

Where:

B: is the magnitude of the magnetic field = 10⁻¹⁰ T

μ₀: is the vacuum permeability = 4π*10⁻⁷ m*T/A

Therefore, the intensity of the electromagnetic wave (eq 2) is:

$I = \frac{3.00 \cdot 10^{8} m/s*(1\cdot 10^{-10} m*T/A)^{2}}{2*4\pi \cdot 10^{-7} T/A} = 1.193 \cdot 10^{-6} W/m^{2}$

Answer from: Quest

Is there a picture to go along with this

Answer from: Quest

distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.

explanation:

the instantaneous velocity = change in position/time taken

the slope of the graph should give instantaneous velocity.

slope of a graph = change in value of y -axis / change in values of x -axis

comparing both the equations

change in value of y -axis = change in position

change in values of x -axis = time taken

so position values should be on the y axis and time values should be on the x axis.

distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.

The inside surface of a cylindrical-shaped cave of inner diameter 1.0 m is continuously covered with a very thin layer of water. the cave is very long and it is open on both ends. the water on the cave surface is at a constant temperature of 15.5 °c. the cave is constantly exposed to wind such that 15.5 °c air flows through the cave at 4.5 m/s. the kinematic viscosity of the air is 14.66 x 10-6 m2/s and the molecular diffusion coefficient of water vapor in the air is 0.239 x 10-4 m2/s. because the cave diameter is so large, the flow of wind down the length of the cave, in the x direction, can be treated like it is external flow and the cave surface can be approximated as flat where appropriate. calculate the x value, in a) the transition to turbulent flow occurs at rex meters, where the air flow transitions from laminar to turbulent along the inside surface of the cave b) calculate the x value, in meters, where the bulk steady state concentration of water vapor in the air flowing in the cave is 10% of the saturation concentration. assume the air at the surface of the water layer is 100% saturated with water vapor. assume the wind entering the cave contained no moisture before it entered the cave. take into account the transition from laminar to turbulent flow when solving part b
