A ball is thrown vertically upward, which is the positive direction. a little later it returns to its point of release. the ball

is in the air for a total time of 8.00 s. what is its initial velocity? neglect air resistance.

<span>Final Velocity = Vf = 0 m/s --------------> (Vf = 0 because ball's speed at its max height is 0) Initial Velocity = Vi = ? Total time (upward & downward) = 8.0 seconds * Time upward = 4 seconds & ................( As time for ball upward & downward is equal ) * Time downward = 4 seconds.. Gravitational Acceleration = g = -9.8 m/s² Use Equation; Vf = Vi - gt 0 = Vi - 9.8 * 4 0 = Vi - 39.2 39.2 = Vi => Vi = Initial Velocity = 39.2 m/s</span>

A polarized beam of intensity Io is directed into a device consisting of two polarizers. The beam is vertically polarized, and t
timama [110]

Answer:

Explanation:

The intensity of polarised light after polarization through angle θ

I = I₀ cos²θ

Here θ = 23 for first polariser

Intensity after first polarisation

= I₀ cos²23 = .846 I₀

For second polariser θ = 90 - 23 = 67 degree

Intensity after second polarisation

= .846 I₀ cos²67 =  .13 I₀ .

Red light of wavelength 633 nm from a helium-neon laser passes through a slit 0.400mm wide. The diffraction pattern is observed
kogti [31]

Answer:

a)y_{first}=5.3mm

b)y_{second}=10.6-5.3 =5.3 mm  

Explanation:

a)

The width of the central bright in this diffraction pattern is given by:

y=\frac{m\lambda D}{a} when m is a natural number.

here:

  • m is 1 (to find the central bright fringe)                
  • D is the distance from the slit to the screen
  • a is the slit wide
  • λ is the wavelength

So we have:

y_{first}=\frac{633*10^{9}*3.35}{0.0004}

y_{first}=5.3mm

b)

Now, if we do m=2 we can find the distance to the second minima.

y_{2}=\frac{2*633*10^{9}*3.35}{0.0004}

y_{2}=10.6 mm

Now we need to subtract these distance, to get the width of the first bright fringe :

y_{second}=10.6-5.3 =5.3 mm    

I hope it heps you!

What is the acceleration caused by gravity of the planet Earth?
Luda [366]
The general accepted value of acceleration due to gravity, g, is 9.81 m/s^2.

That is an approximation because being the acceleration of gravity due to the attraction of the earth its magnitude will depend on the distance from the point to the center of the planet Earth.

The value of g is determined by using the Newton's Universal Law of gravity:

F = G * m of Earth * m of body / (distance^2)

Wehre {G* m of Earth / (distance^2) } = g

G is a universal constant = 6.67 * 10 ^ -11 N*m^2 / kg^2

m of Earth = 5.98 * 10 ^ 24 kg 

distance = radius of Earth + height of the body

Given the the Earth is not a perfect sphere the radius varies. Also the height of the body varies.

If you take a mean radius of Earth of 6.37*10^6 m

you get

g = 6.67*10^-11 N*m^2/kg^2 * 5.98*10^24kg / (6.37*10^6 m)^2 = 9.83 m/s^2

Again, if you want a more precise value of g, you need to find the exact place where you are and then use the right r.
