Answer:

she need to use 20 cm thick

Explanation:

given data

wants the attic insulated = R-30

purchased = 10 cm thick

solution

as per given we can say that

10 cm is for the R 15

but she want for R 30

so  

R 30 thickness = \frac{30}{15} \times 10  

R 30 thickness = 20 cm

so she need to use 20 cm thick

Convert 1 mm to meters using scientific notation. Include units in your answer.
miskamm [114]

Answer:

1.0 x 10^-3 m

Explanation:

1mm = (1/1000) m = 0.001m = 1.0 x 10^-3m (because to get 1.0, you have to  movi the decimal point in the "0.001" three spots over to the right)

Gauss’ law: a. Relates the surface charge density to the electric field.b. Relates the electric field at points on a closed surf
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

b. Relates the electric field at points on a closed surface to the net charge enclosed by that surface

Explanation:

Gauss's law states that the flux of certain fields through a closed surface is proportional to the magnitude of the sources of that field within the same surface. The electric flux expresses the measure of the electric field that crosses a certain surface. Therefore, the electric field on a closed surface is proportional to the net charge enclosed by that surface.

Define motion also justify that rest and motion are related terms​
Damm [24]

Answer;

Motion: A body is said to be in motion if it changes its position with respect to its surroundings.

Explanation:

Rest and motion are the relative terms because they depend on the observer's frame of reference. So if two different observers are not at rest with respect to each other, then they too get different results when they observe the motion or rest of a body .

one example for each. Rest: If a body does not change its position with respect to its surroundings, the body is said to be at rest. ... Motion: A body is said to be in motion if it changes its position with respect to its surroundings.

Unpolarized light with intensity I0I0I_0 is incident on an ideal polarizing filter. The emerging light strikes a second ideal po
zvonat [6]

Answer:

0.293I_0

Explanation:

When the unpolarized light passes through the first polarizer, only the component of the light parallel to the axis of the polarizer passes through.

Therefore, after the first polarizer, the intensity of light passing through it is halved, so the intensity after the first polarizer is:

I_1=\frac{I_0}{2}

Then, the light passes through the second polarizer. In this case, the intensity of the light passing through the 2nd polarizer is given by Malus' law:

I_2=I_1 cos^2 \theta

where

\theta is the angle between the axes of the two polarizer

Here we have

\theta=40^{\circ}

So the intensity after the 2nd polarizer is

I_2=I_1 (cos 40^{\circ})^2=0.587I_1

And substituting the expression for I1, we find:

I_2=0.587 (\frac{I_0}{2})=0.293I_0
