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

1. Determine the magnitude of two equal but opposite charges if they attract one another with a force of 0.7N when at distance o
adell [148]

Answer:

q = 2.65 10⁻⁶ C

Explanation:

For this exercise we use Coulomb's law

        F =k \frac{q_1q_2}{r^2}

In this case they indicate that the load is of equal magnitude

       q₁ = q₂ = q

the force is attractive because the signs of the charges are opposite

       F = k \ \frac{q^2}{r^2}

       q = \sqrt{\frac{F \ r^2}{k} }

we calculate

        q = \sqrt{\frac{0.7 \ 0.3^2 }{9 \ 10^9}  }

        q = \sqrt{7 \ 10^{-12} }Ra 7 10-12

        q = 2.65 10⁻⁶ C

Hey can anyone please help me with this it’s due in few hours and I’m stuck with ittt
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Check body of the explanation

Explanation:

Ooook, quick theory rushdown. if you're at a depth of h in a tank of a fluid, the pressure is the sum of the atmosferic pressure (if the tank is open on top) plus a term which is the product of acceleration of gravity - about 10 ms^-^2, the density of whatever you're sinking in, and the depth at which you are. In formula, p(h) = p_0 + \rho g h, and the pressure is the same for every point of the tank at the same depth.

At this point, we can start answering!

1a. The pressure at A is - not counting atmosferic pressure - 1000 * 10 * 1 = 10^4 Pa, while in B is 1000*10*2 = 2*10^4 Pa, so it's half of it.

1b. The two points are at the same depth, so the pressure is the same - they would be even if the two cilinders weren't linked!

1c. Ditto. Same depth? same pressure!

1d. Usual equation, this time density is 800. Pressure is 800*10*2 = 1,6*10^4 Pa: Since the density is 4/5 of water, the pressure is also 4/5 of the one exerted by water

2a. The volume is simply the product, so 4m*3m*2m = 24m^3

2b. Density is defined as mass over volume, so you simply multiply the volume you found earlier by the density of paraffine: 800* 24 = 1,92 *10^4kg

2c. Weight is defined as the mass of something times the acceleration due to gravity, in our case it's 1.92 *10^4 kg * 10 ms^{-2} = 1.92 * 10^5 N

2d. \rho gh again, what a surprise! 800 {kg \over m^3} * 10 {N \over kg}} * 2 m = 1,6* 10^4 {N\over m^2} =1.6*10^4 Pa

3. Yet again, \rho gh. 1000 {kg \over m^3} * 10 {N \over kg}} * 2 m = 2* 10^4 {N\over m^2} =2*10^4 Pa
