Unpolarized light with intensity S is incident on a series of polarizing sheets. The first sheet has its transmission axis orien

ted at 0°. A second polarizer has its transmission axis oriented at 45° and a third polarizer oriented with its axis at 90°. Determine the fraction of light intensity exiting the third sheet with and without the second sheet present.

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Initial Intensity of light is S

when an un-polarized light is Passed through a Polarizer then its intensity reduced to half.

When it is passed through a second Polarizer with its transmission axis \theat =45^{\circ}

S_1=S_0\cos ^2\theta

here S_0=\frac{S}{2}

S_1=\frac{S}{2}\times \frac{1}{(\sqrt{2})^2}

S_1=\frac{S}{4}

When it is passed through third Polarizer with its axis 90^{\circ} to first but \theta =45^{\circ} to second thus S_2

S_2=S_0\cos ^2\theta

S_2=\frac{S}{4}\times \frac{1}{2}

S_2=\frac{S}{8}

When middle sheet is absent then Final Intensity will be zero

Answer:

The Analysis Model approach we focus on in this revision lays out a standard set of situations that appear in most

physics problems. These situations are based on an entity in one of four simplification models: particle, system,

rigid object, and wave. Once the simplification model is identified, the student thinks about what the entity is

doing or how it interacts with its environment. This leads the student to identify a particular Analysis Model for the

problem. For example, if an object is falling, the object is recognized as a particle experiencing an acceleration due

to gravity that is constant. The student has learned that the Analysis Model of a particle under constant acceleration

describes this situation. Furthermore, this model has a small number of equations associated with it for use in starting problems, the kinematic equations presented in Chapter 2. Therefore, an understanding of the situation has led

to an Analysis Model, which then identifies a very small number of equations to start the problem, rather than the

myriad equations that students see in the text. In this way, the use of Analysis Models leads the student to identify

the fundamental principle. As the student gains more experience, he or she will lean less on the Analysis Model

approach and begin to identify fundamental principles directly.

To better integrate the Analysis Model approach for this edition, Analysis Model descriptive boxes have been

added at the end of any section that introduces a new Analysis Model. This feature recaps the Analysis Model introduced in the section and provides examples of the types of problems that a student could solve using the Analysis

Model. These boxes function as a “refresher” before students see the Analysis Models in use in the worked examples

for a given section.

Worked examples in the text that utilize Analysis Models are now designated with an AM icon for ease of reference. The solutions of these examples integrate the Analysis Model approach to problem solving. The approach is

further reinforced in the end-of-chapter summary under the heading Analysis Models for Problem Solving, and through

the new Analysis Model Tutorials that are based on selected end-of-chapter problems and appear in Enhanced

WebAssign.

A tree loses water to the air by the process of transpiration at the rate of 110 g/h. This water is replaced by the upward flow
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

The answer is 1.87nm/s.

Explanation:

The 110g/hr  water loss must be replaced by 110g/hr of sap. 110g of sap corresponds to a volume of  

110g \div \dfrac{1040*10^3g}{1*10^6cm^3}  = 106cm^3

thus rate of sap replacement is

106cm^3/hr = 106*10^{-6}m^3/3600s  = 2.94*10^{-8}m^3/s

The volume of sap in the vessel of length x is

V = Ax,

where A is the cross sectional area of the vessel.

For 2000 such vessels, the volume is

V = 2000Ax

taking the derivative of both sides we get:

\dfrac{dV}{dt} = 2000A \dfrac{dx}{dt}

on the left-hand-side \dfrac{dx}{dt} is the velocity v of the sap, and on right-hand-side \dfrac{dV}{dt}  = 2.94*10^{-8}m^3/s; therefore,

2.94*10^{-8}m^3/s=2000Av

and since the cross-sectional area is

A = \pi (\dfrac{100*10^{-3}m}{2} )^2 = 7.85*10^{-3}m^2;

therefore,

2.94*10^{-8}m^3/s =2000(7.85*10^{-3}m^2)v

solving for v we get:

v = \dfrac{2.94*10^{-8}m^3/s}{2000(7.85*10^{-3}m^2)}

\boxed{v =1.875*10^{-9}m/s = 1.875nm/s}

which is the upward speed of the sap in each vessel.

As a 2-kg ball rolls down a ramp, the net force on it is 10 N. What is the acceleration?
evablogger [386]
That all depends on the direction of the force. If the force is parallel to the ramp, then the acceleration of the ball is 5 m/s^2. If the force isn't parallel to the ramp, then the acceleration is less.
