Dipole antenna and electromagnetic waves

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on the use of equations related to dipole antennas and electromagnetic waves in a homework context. Participants confirm that the equations used are generally correct, particularly regarding the relationship between electric and magnetic energy densities. However, there is a concern raised about the accuracy of the value for the permittivity of free space (ε₀), indicating a significant error in the exponent. This highlights the importance of precise calculations in electromagnetic theory. Accurate values are crucial for solving problems related to dipole antennas effectively.

I think you are using the right equations as far as I've read. The electric energy density is equal to the magnetic energy density, etc. But isn't your value for ##\epsilon_0## way off? You've got completely the wrong exponent.
 

Thread 'Rolling without slipping on a curved surface'

Kindly see the attached pdf. My attempt to solve it, is in it. I'm wondering if my solution is right. My idea is this: At any point of time, the ball may be assumed to be at an incline which is at an angle of θ(kindly see both the pics in the pdf file). The value of θ will continuously change and so will the value of friction. I'm not able to figure out, why my solution is wrong, if it is wrong .

Thread 'Struggling to understand the concept of this question (ice cube in water optics question)'

TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...
