Oxygen has a higher electro negativity that then Sulfur, so Sulfur will " lose" electrons to Oxygen and that is the electrons will be pulled closer to the Oxygen causing, for oxygen to have a negative charge and the Sulfur to have a positive charge

A polarized light that has an intensity I0 = 60.0 W/m² is incident on three polarizing disks whose planes are parallel and cente

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

The transmitted intensity through all polarizers is $I_3 =41.31 W/m^2$

Explanation:

According to Malu's law the intensity of a polarized light having an initial intensity $I_0$ is mathematically represented as

$I = I_0cos^2 \theta$

Now considering the polarizer(The polarizing disk) the equation above becomes

$I = I_0 (cos^2 \theta)^n$

Where n is the number of polarizers

Substituting $60.0W/m^2$ for the initial intensity 3 for the n and 20° for the angle of rotation

$I_3 = 60 (cos^220)^3$

$=41.31 W/m^2$

Answer:

α = 0.0135 rad/s²

Explanation:

given,

t = 133 min = 133 x 60 = 7980 s

angular speed varies from 570 rpm to 1600 rpm

now,

570 rpm = $570 \times \dfrac{2\pi}{60}$

= 59.69 rad/s

1600 rpm = = $570 \times \dfrac{2\pi}{60}$

= 167.6 rad/s

using equation of rotational motion

ωf = ωi + αt

167.6 = 59.7 + α x 7980

α x 7980 = 107.9

α = 0.0135 rad/s²
