light traveling in a medium with a refractive index 1.28 is incident on a plate of another medium with index of refraction 2.22.

Answer: The angle of incidence at which the light will fully be polarized is 60°

Explanation:

To find out the angle of incidence θB for which reflected light is fully polarized we use the equation

n1 sinθB = n2sin(90°− θB) = n 2cosθB

Since n1 is the index of refraction for medium 1 and n2 is the medium of refraction for medium 2 we then solve the equation to get

θB = tan −1 (n2/n1)

= tan −1 (2.22/1.28)=60.0°

Why is honesty especially important in a scientist when the results of an experiment go against predictions❓❔
kramer
Because other scientists and science in general rely on their collegues' research which in turn allows development of our knowledge on the given subject. The more dont-to-earth reason may be safety. If someone performs an experiment without knowledge of its true results it might result in some danger to the safety of those perforning it without knowledge of all the risks.

An astronaut takes an object to the moon where there is less gravity. Explain how the mass and weight of the object on the moon
alexandr1967 [171]
The mass of the object will remain the same rather it's on the moon or on the Earth and even in other places. But the weight will change on the moon, so its weight will be different from the one it had on Earth

An object has a kinetic energy of 175 J and a momentum of magnitude 25.0 kg m/s. Find the
DedPeter [7]

Answer:14 m/s

Explanation:

Kinetic energy(ke)=175J

Momentum(M)=25kgm/s

Speed=v

Mass=m

Ke=(m x v x v)/2

175=(mv^2)/2

Cross multiply

175 x 2=mv^2

350=mv^2

Momentum=mass x velocity

25=mv

m=25/v

Substitute m=25/v in 350=mv^2

350=25/v x v^2

350=25v^2/v

v^2/v=v

350=25v

v=350/25

v=14 m/s

Use the drop-down menus to complete the statement about Earth’s magnetism.
Nataly [62]

Answer:

The Earth's magnetism is generated in the core, which is composed of iron that is constantly churning

Explanation:

Magnetic fields are produced by charges in motion, therefore by currents.

The outer core of the Earth consists mainly of melted iron that is in constant motion. This iron in motion actually acts as a giant current, and therefore it is responsible for the creation of the Earth's magnetic field.

The magnetic field of the Earth is very weak, in fact its magnitude is on average between 25 and 65 microtesla (for comparison, normal magnets can even produce magnetic fields of a few millitesla).

However, its role is very important for the Earth: in fact, it provides a shield that blocks most of the harmful radiation coming from the Sun.
