A projectile is thrown at an angle 30° from horizontal. Which statement about its vertical component of velocity is true?

1 answer:

3 0

Answer: A
There is constant downward acceleration due to the gravitational force exerted on the object due to the earth's gravitational field
By Newton's second law,
Force=Acceleration * Mass

Since vertical velocity is upward while vertical acceleration is downward, vertical velocity decreases as it moves upward.

A vertically polarized beam of light of intensity 100 W/m2 passes through two ideal polarizers. The transmission axis of the fir

TEA [102]

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the Malus Law. Malus's law indicates that the intensity of a linearly polarized beam of light, which passes through a perfect analyzer with a vertical optical axis is equivalent to:

$I=I_0 cos^2\theta$

Where,

$I_ {0}$ indicates the intensity of the light before passing through the polarizer,

I is the resulting intensity, and

$\theta$ indicates the angle between the axis of the analyzer and the polarization axis of the incident light.

Since we have two objects the law would be,

$I=I_0cos^2\theta_1*cos^2(\theta_2-\theta_1)$

Replacing the values,

$I=100*cos^2(20)*cos^2(40-20)$

$I=100*cos^4(20)$

$I=77.91W/m^2$

Therefore the intesity of the light after it has passes through both polarizers is $77.91W/m^2$

Lilit [14]

Answer:60 gm

Explanation:

Given

initial velocity of ball $u=0$

Force exerted by racquet $F=540 N$

time period of force $t=5\ ms$

final velocity of ball $v=45\ m/s$

Racquet imparts an impulse to the ball which is given by

$J=F\Delta t=\Delta P$

$J=540\times \Delta t=m(45-0)$

$m=\frac{540\times 5\times 10^{-3}}{45}$

$m=60\ gm$
