7. When initially-unpolarized light passes through three polarizing filters, each oriented at 45 degree angles from the precedin

g filter, _____ of the initial light passes through the last filter.
Physics

GREYUIT [131]3 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 .

uppose a wheel is initially rotating at 10.0 rad/s while undergoing constant angular acceleration reaching a speed of 30.0 rad/s
Paul [167]

Answer:

t = 22.2 s

Explanation:

angular distance covered in the 36.0 s is

θ = ω(avg)t = ½(10.0 + 30.0)36 = 720 radians

720/2 = 360 radians

α = Δω/t = (30 - 10)/36 = 5/9 rad/s²

θ = ω₀t + ½αt²

360 = 10.0t + ½(5/9)t²

   0 = (5/18)t² + 10.0t - 360

   0 = t² + 36t - 1296

t = (-36 ±√(36² - 4(1)(-1296))) / 2

t = (-36 ±√(6480)) / 2

t = -18 ±√1620

we ignore the negative time result as it occurs before we care.

t = -18 + √1620 = 22.249223... s

A book falls off a shelf that is 10.0 m tall. What is the velocity at which the book hits the ground?
Elena L [17]

Answer:

14 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the book is a free fall motion, so it is an uniformly accelerated motion with constant acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground. Therefore we can find the final velocity by using the equation:

v^2 = u^2 + 2gd

where

u = 0 is the initial speed

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration

d = 10.0 m is the distance covered by the book

Substituting data, we find

v=\sqrt{0^2 + 2(9.8 m/s^2)(10.0 m)}=14 m/s

In each of the parts of this question, a nucleus undergoes a nuclear decay. Determine the resulting nucleus in each case.
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

(A). The resulting nucleus is Fr.

(B). The resulting nucleus is Po.

(C). The resulting nucleus is Ne

(D). The resulting nucleus is Tc.

Explanation:

Given that,

A nucleus undergoes a nuclear decay.

(A). In alpha decay,

We know that,

When the nucleus emit alpha particle then atomic mass of particle reduce by 4 and atomic number reduce by 2.

We need to calculate the resulting nucleus

Using given data

^{227}_{89}Ac\Rightarrow ^{227-4}_{89-2}X

^{227}_{89}Ac\Rightarrow ^{223}_{87}Fr

The resulting nucleus is Fr.

(B). In beta-minus decay,

We know that,

When the nucleus emit beta- minus particle then atomic mass of particle is same and atomic number increase by 1.

We need to calculate the resulting nucleus

Using given data

^{211}_{83}Bi\Rightarrow ^{211}_{83+1}X

^{211}_{83}Bi\Rightarrow ^{211}_{84}Po

The resulting nucleus is Po.

(C). In beta-plus decay,

We know that,

When the nucleus emit beta- plus particle then atomic mass of particle is same and atomic number decrease by 1.

We need to calculate the resulting nucleus

Using given data

^{22}_{11}Na\Rightarrow ^{22}_{11-1}X

^{22}_{11}Na\Rightarrow ^{22}_{10}Ne

The resulting nucleus is Ne.

(D). In gamma decay,

We know that,

When the nucleus emit gamma particle then atomic mass and atomic number of particle is same.

We need to calculate the resulting nucleus

Using given data

^{98}_{43}Tc\Rightarrow ^{98}_{43}Tc

The resulting nucleus is Tc.

Hence, (A). The resulting nucleus is Fr.

(B). The resulting nucleus is Po.

(C). The resulting nucleus is Ne

(D). The resulting nucleus is Tc.
