3. The speed of light in vacuum is approximately 3 × 108 m/s. Find the wavelength of red light having a frequency of 5 x 1014 Hz. Compare this with the wavelength of a 60-Hz electromagnetic wave. 4. A youngster in a boat on a lake watches waves that seem to be an endless succession of identical crests passing with a half-second interval between each. If every disturbance takes 1.5 s to sweep straight along the length of her 4.5-m-long...
t = 0 ms (a) (4 marks) A sinusoidal wave moving along a string is shown twice in the figure at time t = 0 (top) and time t = 4t (bottom). After At = 4.0 ms, the crest travels d=6.0 cm in the positive x direction. The equation for the wave is in the form 8 mm H HHHx y(x, t) =Ym sin(kx = wt). t = 4 ms What are (i) ym, (ii)k, (iii) w, and (iv) the...
3. The wave heights h in the open sea depend on the speed v of the wind and the length of time t that the wind has been blowing at that speed. Values of the function h(v, t) have been experimentally determined and the results are recorded in feet in the following table. Here wind speed v is measured in knots and the duration t is measured in hours h(t, v)t 5 t-10 t 15 t 20 t 30 t-40...
Problem 6. Electromagnetic plane waves in a lossy medium The electric field of an electromagnetic plane wave traveling in a lossy medium can be written as where z is the distance, t is time, and fthe frequency. For f 1 GHz, it is found by measurement that the amplitude of the electric field is attenuated by a factor of 3 after the wave travels 100 m (i.e., to 1/3 of the amplitude at z-0 when it arrives at z- 100...
2. Lumped versus distributed circuits (15%) (a) A transmission line of length 1 connects a load to a sinusoidal voltage source with an oscillation frequency of f. Assuming that the velocity of wave propagation in the line is c (that is, the speed of light in vacuum), for which of the following sit- uations can we model the transmission line as a wire (that is, use a lumped-element model) and where do we need a distributed model?
