GREYUIT [131]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the intensity  of unpolarised light be I₀ . After passing through the first polarising filter , the intensity  is I₀ / 2 .

After second filter , the intensity  will be  I₀ / 2 x cos²45 =  I₀ / 4

After third filter , the intensity will be I₀ / 4  x cos²45 = I₀ / 8 .

So,

1 / 8 the of initial light passes through the last filter .

A piece of aluminum is dropped vertically downward between thepoles of an electromagnet. Does the magnetic field affect theveloc
sashaice [31]

When aluminum begins to fall and move towards the field, the currents found in it begin to have an effect on Aluminum. Said magnetic field what it will do is generate a slowing force on the plate that acts with the current of the electroiman and will slow down its fall. Similarly, when the plate leaves the magnetic field, a current is induced and, once again, there is an upward force to reduce the speed of the plate.

Therefore the correct answer is A. Yes.

A car is driving directly north on the freeway at a speed of 91 km/h and a truck is leaving the freeway driving 56 km/h in a dir
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

v = 49.69 km/hr

Explanation:

velcoity of truck with respect to car is given as = velocity of truck - velocity of car

velcoity of truck with respect to car is given as = (-54 sin(28)i +54cos(28)j - 91km/h

                                                                              = -24.35i - 43.32j

magnitude of velocity is

v = \sqrt{ 24.35^2+43.32^2}

v = 49.69 km/hr

the direction is

tan^{-}[\frac{ 43.32}{24.35}]

= 60.65 degree towrd south of west

Why is carbon said to provide a “backbone” in many molecules?(1 point)
slega [8]

Answer:

The carbon atom has unique properties that allow it to form covalent bonds to as many as four different atoms, making this versatile element ideal to serve as the basic structural component, or “backbone,” of the macromolecules.
