a radio antenna broadcasts a 1.0 MHz radio wav e with 21 kW of power. Assume that the radiation is emitted uniformly in all directions. What is the waves intensity 25 km from the antenna

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]I=2.67\times 10^{-6}\ W/m[/tex]

Explanation:

Given that,

Frequency of a radio antenna is 1 MHz

Power, P = 21 kW

We need to find the the waves intensity 25 km from the antenna . The object emits intenisty evenly in all direction. It can be given by :

[tex]I=\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2}\\\\I=\dfrac{21\times 10^3}{4\pi (25000)^2}\\\\I=2.67\times 10^{-6}\ W/m[/tex]

So, the wave intensity 25 km from the antenna is [tex]2.67\times 10^{-6}\ W/m[/tex].
