(Solution) - Testing a Space Radio Transmitter you are a NASA mission -(2025 Original AI-Free Solution)

Paper Details

Testing a Space Radio Transmitter you are a NASA mission specialist on your first flight aboard the space shuttle. Thanks to your extensive training in physics, you have been assigned to evaluate the performance of a new radio transmitter on board the International Space Station (ISS). Perched on the shuttle's movable arm, you aim a sensitive detector at the ISS, which is 2.5 km away. You find that the electric-field amplitude of the radio waves coming from the ISS transmitter is 0.090 V/m and that the frequency of the waves is 244 MHz. Find the following:
(a) The intensity of the radio wave at your location;
(b) The magnetic-field amplitude of the wave at your location;
(c) The total power output of the ISS radio transmitter.
(d) What assumptions, if any, did you make in your calculations?
