Answer:

θ = 66.90°

Explanation:

we know that

I= \frac{I_0}{2}cos^2\theta

I= intensity of polarized light =1

I_o= intensity of unpolarized light = 13

putting vales we get

1= \frac{13}{2}cos^2\theta

⇒\theta=cos^{-1} \sqrt{\frac{1}{6.5} }

therefore θ = 66.90°

What happens to the pressure in all parts of a confined fluid if the pressure in one part is increased?
Sauron [17]

Answer:

The pressure will be transmitted equally to all other parts of the confined fluid causing a general increase in pressure throughout the container.

Explanation:

This is in line with pascal's law of pressure which states that the pressure exerted on a given mass of fluid is transmitted undiminished to other parts of the fluid.

As you may have experienced yourself, water alone will not remove oil from a dirty dish. Why does soap work to remove oil
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

Soap breaks up the oil into smaller drops, which can mix with the water. It works because soap is made up of molecules with two very different ends (one end of molecules are hydrophilic, so they love water; the other end of molecules is hydrophobic, so they hate water).

An astronaut in her space suit has a total mass of 87.0kg including suit and oxygen tank. Her tether line loses its attachment t
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

In space due to weightlessness both astronaut and her oxygen tank will float .

when she throws the tank away from spacecraft , she will have a velocity in opposite direction ie towards the spacecraft . This happens due to conservation of momentum . She creates a momentum away so that she can get a momentum towards the spaceship.

So

m₁ v₁ = m₂v₂

12 x 8 = ( 87 - 12 ) x v₂

v₂ = 1.28 m /s

Time allowed = 2 x 60

= 120 s

So maximum distance upto which she can remain away from spacecraft

= 120 x 1.28

= 153 m .

b )

The Newton's law which explains the theory behind it is "third law of motion"  . This law gives law of conservation of momentum .
