By how much does the gravitational potential energy of a 54-kg pole vaulter change if her center of mass rises about 4.0 m durin
kodGreya [7K]
<span>the gravational potential energy of anything on the ground is zero. When calculating potential energy you take height in meters and multiply it by the mass of the object in kilograms and the acceleration of gravity to get a new unit called Joules. Any object at ground level has a potential energy of zero newtons becuase anything multiplied by zero is zero. An object with mass of 54 kg, 4 meters above the ground has a gravitatinal potential energy of 2116.8 Joules.</span>

A horizontal beam of light of intensity 25 W/m2 is sent through two polarizing sheets. The polarizing direction of the first mak
Zina [86]

Answer:

option (B)

Explanation:

Intensity of unpolarised light, I = 25 W/m^2

When it passes from first polarisr, the intensity of light becomes

I'=\frac{I_{0}}{2}=\frac{25}{2}=12.5 W/m^{2}

Let the intensity of light as it passes from second polariser is I''.

According to the law of Malus

I'' = I' Cos^{2}\theta

Where, θ be the angle between the axis first polariser and the second polariser.

I'' = 12.5\times Cos^{2}15

I'' = 11.66 W/m^2

I'' = 11.7 W/m^2
