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

Why a raw egg shell disolves when submerge in vineger
quester [9]
If you soak this egg shell in vinegar (which is about 4% acetic acid), you start a chemical reaction that dissolves the calcium carbonate shell. The acetic acid reacts with the calcium carbonate in the egg shell and releases carbon dioxide gas that you see as bubbles on the shell.

Bumek [7]

Explanation:

Since, it is mentioned the there occurs no change in the temperature. This also means that there will occur no change in thermal energy of the system.

Hence, \Delta E = 0. And, as \Delta E = 0 then there will be no work involved. This means that total energy added to the house will return to the outside air as heat.

Therefore,

                   Q = -(19000 J + 2000 J)

                       = -21000 J

or,    |Q| = 21000 J

Thus, we can conclude that the magnitude of the energy transfer between the house and the outside air is 21000 J.

A wire with resistance R is connected to the terminals of a 6.0 V battery. What is the potential difference between the ends of
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Potential difference = 6.0 V

I for 1.0Ω = 6 A

I for 2.0Ω = 3 A

I for 3.0Ω = 2 A

Explanation:

Potential difference (ΔV) = Current (I) x Resistance (R)

The potential difference is constant and equals 6.0 V, hence;

I = ΔV/R

When R = 1.0, I =6/1 = 6 amperes

When R = 2.0, I = 6/2 = 3 amperes

When R = 3.0, I = 6/3 = 2 amperes

<em>The potential difference is 6.0 V and the current is 6, 3, and 2 amperes for a resistance of 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0Ω respectively.</em>
