This type of polarization occurs when light strikes the atoms of a material.
zloy xaker [14]

Option C i.e scattering is the correct answer.

Scattering type of Polarization occurs when light strikes the atoms of a material.

Polarization is the process of transforming unpolarized light into polarized light. There are four methods of polarisation--Transmission, Refraction, Reflaction and Scattering.

On Earth, a spring stretches by 5.0 cm when a mass of 3.0 kg is suspended from one end.
Neko [114]

Answer:

Mass = 18.0 kg

Explanation:

From Hooke's law,

F = ke

where: F is the force, k is the spring constant and e is the extension.

But, F = mg

So that,

mg = ke

On the Earth, let the gravitational force be 10 m/s^{2}.

3.0 x 10 = k x 5.0

30 = 5k

⇒ k = \frac{30}{5} ................ 1

On the Moon, the gravitational force is \frac{1}{6} of that on the Earth.

m x \frac{10}{6} = k x 5.0

\frac{10m}{6} = 5k

⇒ k = \frac{10m}{30} ............. 2

Equating 1 and 2, we have;

\frac{30}{5}  = \frac{10m}{30}

m = \frac{900}{50}

    = 18.0

m = 18.0 kg

The mass required to produce the same extension on the Moon is 18 kg.

A vacuum tube can be used to__. A. change alternating current into direct current B. increase the strength of a signal.. C. turn
vesna_86 [32]

The correct answer of this question is :  A) Change alternating current into direct current.

EXPLANATION :

As per the question, we are given vacuum tube. Vacuum tube can be of various types. Normally it contains two electrodes called cathode and anode which are enclosed in an evacuated glass chamber . There are also other types of vacuum tubes which contain extra electrodes like control grid .

The vacuum tube can be used as a rectifier. It means that it can be used as an electronic device which will convert alternating current into direct current. It may be a half wave rectifier or a full wave rectifier. Actually the direct current obtained during the rectification of alternating current is pulsating in nature.

Hence, the correct answer is that a vacuum tube can be used to change alternating current into direct current.
