1 CHAPTR : lectromagnetic Waves Answers to Questions. If the direction of travel for the M wave is north and the electric field oscillates east-west, then the magnetic field must oscillate up and down. For an M wave, the direction of travel, the electric field, and the magnetic field must all be perpendicular to each other.. No, sound is not an electromagnetic wave. Sound is a mechanical (pressure) wave. The energy in the sound wave is actually oscillating the medium in which it travels (air, in this case). The energy in an M wave is contained in the electric and magnetic fields and it does not need a medium in which to travel.. Yes, M waves can travel through a perfect vacuum. The energy is carried in the oscillating electric and magnetic fields and no medium is required to travel. No, sound waves cannot travel through a perfect vacuum. A medium is needed to carry the energy of a mechanical wave such as sound and there is no medium in a perfect vacuum. 4. When you flip a light switch on, the electrons in the filament wire need to move to light the bulb, and these electrons need to receive energy to begin to move. It does take some time for the energy to travel through the wires from the switch to the bulb, but the time is extremely minimal, since the energy travels with the M fields in the wire at nearly the speed of light. It also takes a while for the M (light) waves to travel from the bulb to your eye, again at the speed of light, and so very little time passes. Some delay can usually be detected by your eyes due to the fact that the filament takes a little time to heat up to a temperature that emits visible light. Also, depending on the inductance of the circuit, a small amount of time could be added to the delay in your seeing the light go on (inductance acts like an electrical inertia). Thus, no, the light does not go on immediately when you flip the light switch, but the delay is very small. 5. The wavelengths of radio and TV signals are much longer than visible light. Radio waves are on the order of m, m. TV waves are on the order of. m m. Visible waves are on the order of -7 m.. It is not necessary to make the lead-in wires to your speakers the exact same length. Since energy in the wires travels at nearly the speed of light, the difference in time between the signals getting to the different speakers will be too small for your ears to detect. [Making sure the resistance of your speaker wires is correct is much more important.] 7. Wavelength of km: Sub-radio waves (or very long radio waves for example, LF waves for submarine communication fall into this category). Wavelength of km: Radio waves. Wavelength of m: TV signals and microwaves. Wavelength of cm: microwaves and satellite TV signals. Wavelength of mm: microwaves and infrared waves. Wavelength of µm: infrared waves.. Yes, radio waves can have the same frequencies as sound waves. These, Hz M waves would have extremely long wavelengths (for example, LF waves for submarine communication) when compared to the sound waves. A 5 Hz sound wave has a wavelength of about 7 mm, while a 5 Hz M wave has a wavelength of about km. 5 Pearson ducation, Inc., Upper Saddle River, NJ. All rights reserved.

2 9. Two TV or two radio stations can be broadcast on the same carrier frequency, but if both signals are of similar strength in the same locality, the signals will be scrambled. The carrier frequency is used by the receiver to distinguish between different stations. Once the receiver has locked on to a particular carrier frequency, its circuitry then does the work of demodulating the information being carried on that carrier frequency. If two stations had the same carrier frequency, the receiver would try to decipher both signals at once and you would get jumbled information instead of a clear signal.. The receiver antenna should also be vertical for obtaining the best reception. The oscillating carrier electric field is up-and-down, so a vertical antenna would pick up that signal better, since the electrons in the metal antenna would be forced to oscillate up and down along the entire length of the vertical antenna and creating a stronger signal. This is analogous to polarized light, as discussed in chapter 4.. Diffraction effects (the bending of waves around the edge of an object) are only evident when the size of the wavelength of the wave is larger than the size of the object. AM waves have wavelengths that are on the order of m long, while FM waves have wavelengths on the order of m long. Buildings and hills are much larger than FM waves, and so FM waves will not diffract around the buildings and hills. Thus the FM signal will not be received behind the hills or buildings. On the other hand, these objects are smaller than AM waves, and so the AM waves will diffract around them easily. The AM signal can be received behind the objects.. Cordless phones utilize M waves when sending information back and forth between the phone (the part you hold up to your ear/mouth) and its base (where the base is sitting in your house and it is physically connected to the wire phones lines that lead outside to the phone company s network). These M waves are usually very weak (you can t walk very far away from your house before you lose the signal) and use frequencies such at 49 MHz, 9 MHz,.4 GHz or 5 GHz. Cell phones utilize M waves when sending information back and forth between the phone and the nearest tower in your geographical area (which could be miles away from your location). These M waves need to be much stronger than cordless phone waves (the batteries are usually much more sophisticated and expensive) and use frequencies of 5 MHz or. GHz. [Cell phones also have many more channels than cordless phones, so more people can be talking using the same carrier frequency.]. Transmitting Morse code by flashing a flashlight on and off is an AM wave. The amplitude of the carrier wave is increasing/decreasing every time you turn the flashlight on and off. The frequency of the carrier wave is visible light, which is approximately 4 Hz. Solutions to Problems. The current in the wires must also be the displacement current in the capacitor. We find the rate at which the electric field is changing from ID = ε A t 4.A =.5 F m.m, which gives 7.9 V mi s. t 5 Pearson ducation, Inc., Upper Saddle River, NJ. All rights reserved.

3 . The current in the wires is the rate at which charge is accumulating on the plates and must also be the displacement current in the capacitor. Because the location is outside the capacitor, we can use the expression for the magnetic field of a long wire: 7 µ ( T m A) ( 5. A) I i B = = = 7. T. 4π R (.m) After the capacitor is fully charged, all currents will be zero, so the magnetic field will be zero.. The electric field is 9 = cb =. m s 7.5 T = 5.5V m. 4. The frequency of the two fields must be the same:. khz. The strength of the electric field is 9 = cb = (. m s)(.75 T) =.V m. The electric field is perpendicular to both the direction of travel and the magnetic field, so the electric field oscillates along the horizontal north-south line. 5.

The eight-sided mirror would have to rotate / of a revolution for the succeeding mirror to be in position to reflect the light in the proper direction. During this time the light must travel to the opposite mirror and back. Thus the angular speed required is π rad θ ( π rad) c ω = = = t L L c ( π rad)(. m s) 4 = =.4 rad s (. rev min )..5 m 5. The mirror must rotate at a minimum rate of ( revolutions) ( m) ω =,where t = =. s. t. m s revolutions Thus ω = =. revolutions s.. s. If we ignore the time for the sound to travel to the microphone, the time difference is dradio d sound m 5m t = tradio tsound = =.4s, = c vsound. m s 4m s so the person at the radio hears the voice.4 s sooner. 7.
