A communications truck with a 44-cm-diameter dish receiver on the roof starts out 10 km from its base station. It drives directly away from the base station at 50 km/h for 1.0 h, keeping the receiver pointed at the base station. The base station antenna broadcasts continuously with 2.5 kW of power, radiated uniformly in all directions. How much electromagnetic energy does the truck鈥檚 dish receive during that 1.0 h?

Short Answer

Expert verified

0.000181J

Step by step solution

01

Given Parameters

radius of dish(r): 44/2 cm= 0.22m

s0=10km=10000m

v = 50km/h = 50000m/h = 13.88m/s

Psource=2.5kW=2500W

Time = 1hr

02

Concept

Energy received by dish is power received over the course of 1hr time period.

E=01hrPdishdt ____ eq (1)

Now, Intensity received by dish is I=PA,

Where, P = power

A = Area

So, P = IA

03

Substituting this in eq(1) we getE=∫01hrIdishAdt____ eq(2)Now intensity received by dish = Power emitted by sourcetotal surface area=Psource4πr2Putting this in eq(2) we get;

E=01hrPsource4蟺谤2Adt____ eq(3)

Now we know that the truck is moving away from the station at a constant speed. So truck's distance from station at any time t is

r=s0+vt

Substituting this in equation 3 we get,

E=01hrPsourceA4(s0+vt)2dt=PsourceA401hr1(s0+vt)2dt=PsourceA4蟺惫[(-1)(s0+vt)-1]01hr=-PsourceA4蟺惫[1s0+v(1hr)-1s0]

Here A = 蟺谤2

Substituting this value in above equation we get:

E=-PSourcer24v[1S0+v(1hr)-1S0]

04

Substituting all the values in equation now, we get;

E=-(2500W)(0.22m)24(13.88m/s)[110000+50000-110000]E=-2.179(-8.33310-5)E=0.000181J

An avant-garde composer wants to use the Doppler effect in his new opera. As the soprano sings, he wants a large bat to fly toward her from the back of the stage. The bat will be outfitted with a microphone to pick up the singer鈥檚 voice and a loudspeaker to rebroadcast the sound toward the audience. The composer wants the sound the audience hears from the bat to be, in musical terms, one half-step higher in frequency than the note they are hearing from the singer. Two notes a half-step apart have a frequency ratio of 21/12 = 1.059. With what speed must the bat fly toward the singer?

Some modern optical devices are made with glass whose index of refraction changes with distance from the front surface. FIGURE CP16.84 shows the index of refraction as a function of the distance into a slab of glass of thickness L. The index of refraction increases linearly from n1 at the front surface to n2 at the rear surface. a. Find an expression for the time light takes to travel through this piece of glass. b. Evaluate your expression for a 1.0-cm-thick piece of glass for which n1 = 1.50 and n2 = 1.60.

A bat locates insects by emitting ultrasonic 鈥渃hirps鈥 and then listening for echoes from the bugs. Suppose a bat chirp has a frequency of 25 kHz. How fast would the bat have to fly, and in what direction, for you to just barely be able to hear the chirp at 20 kHz?

The displacement of a wave traveling in the positive x-direction
