Unpolarized light with an average intensity of 845 W/m2 moves along the x-axis when it enters a Polarizer A with a vertical tran

smission axis (along the y-axis). The transmitted light then enters a second polarizer, B at an angle in the y-z plane . The light that exits the second polarizer is found to have an average intensity of 275 W/m2. What is the orientation angle of the second polarizer (B) relative to the first one (A)

Answer:

θ = 36.2º

Explanation:

When light passes through a polarizer it becomes polarized and if it then passes through a second polarizer, it must comply with Malus's law

         I = I₀ cos² tea

The non-polarized light between the first polarized of this leaves half the intensity, with vertical polarization

          I₁ = I₀ / 2

          I₁ = 845/2

          I₁ = 422.5 W / m²

In this case, the incident light in the second polarizer has an intensity of I₁ = 422.5 W / m² and the light that passes through the polarizer has a value of

I = 275 W / m ²

      Cos² θ = I / I₁

      Cos θ = √ I / I₁

      Cos θ = √ (275 / 422.5)

     Cos θ = 0.80678

     θ = cos⁻¹ 0.80678

     θ = 36.2º

This is the angle between the two polarizers

Label these as balanced or unbalanced:
kvasek [131]

Answer:

  1. A book lying on a table  - Balanced force
  2. An airplane cruising in level flight  - Balanced
  3. A rock falling from a cliff  - Unbalanced force
  4. A bridge collapsing in an earthquake  -  Unbalanced force
  5. A man sitting on a park bench  - Balanced force
  6. A space shuttle taking off  - Unbalanced force
  7. A car maintaining a constant speed on a straight road  - Balanced force
  8. An airplane landing - Unbalanced force

Explanation:

Usually, one or more forces act on a body at an instant of time. When these forces acting on a body and bring the body in the equilibrium position, the force is said to be balanced. The unbalanced force changes the equilibrium state of the body.

As in the case of an airplane cruising in a level flight, the weight of the plane will be equal to the lift force and the thrust is equal to the drag. So the plane is experiencing a balanced force.

A rocket with a mass of 62,000 kg (including fuel) is burning fuel at the rate of 150 kg/s and the speed of the exhaust gases is
mezya [45]

Answer:

h≅ 58 m

Explanation:

GIVEN:

mass of rocket M= 62,000 kg

fuel consumption rate =  150 kg/s

velocity of exhaust gases v= 6000 m/s

Now thrust = rate of fuel consumption×velocity of exhaust gases

=6000 × 150 = 900000 N

now to need calculate time t = amount of fuel consumed÷ rate

= 744/150= 4.96 sec

applying newton's law

M×a= thrust - Mg

62000 a=900000- 62000×9.8

acceleration a= 4.71 m/s^2

its height after 744 kg of its total fuel load has been consumed

h= \frac{1}{2}at^2

h= \frac{1}{2}4.71\times4.96^2

h= 58.012 m

h≅ 58 m
