The frequency and wavelength of EM waves can vary over a wide range of values. Scientists refer to the full range of frequencies that EM radiation can have as the electromagnetic spectrum.

Electromagnetic waves are used extensively in modern technology. Many devices are built to emit and/or receive EM waves at a very specific frequency, or within a narrow band of frequencies. Here are some examples followed by their frequencies of operation:

garage door openers: 40.0 MHz,
standard cordless phones: 40.0 to 50.0 MHz,
baby monitors: 49.0 MHz,
FM radio stations: 88.0 to 108 MHz,
cell phones: 800 to 900 MHz,
Global Positioning System: 1227 to 1575 MHz,
microwave ovens: 2450 MHz,
wireless Internet technology: 2.4 to 2.6 GHz.

Steam is generated in a boiler of a cogeneration plant at 10 mpa and 450°c at a steady rate of 5 kg/s. in normal operation, steam expands in a turbine to a pressure of 0.5 mpa and is then routed to the process heater, where it supplies the process heat. steam leaves the process heater as a saturated liquid and is pumped to the boiler pressure. in this mode, no steam passes through a condenser, which operates at 20 kpa. (a) determine the power produced in the turbine and the rate at which process heat is supplied in this mode. (b) determine the power produced in the turbine and the rate of process heat supplied if only 60 percent of the steam is routed to the process heater and the remainder is expanded to the condenser pressure.

Examine the nuclear reacti why is this classified as a nuclear reaction rather than a chemical reaction? it is not balanced. a new compound is formed. a change has occurred in a nucleus. a new element has been formed.

Looking at this barometer, is the air pressure high or low? what type of weather would you expect? high, bad low, bad high, good low, good
