<span>The answer is C. This is called polarization of light by reflection. The sunlight is reflected at a parallel angle from on the surface plane of the water from which it bounces from. The glare is due to this polarization of sun beams at an angle with respect to the viewer. </span>

2. a) A disc rotates about its axis at speed 25 revolutions per minute and takes 15 s to stop. Calculate the
ASHA 777 [7]

The statement shows a case of rotational motion, in which the disc <em>decelerates</em> at <em>constant</em> rate.

i) The angular acceleration of the disc (\alpha), in revolutions per square second, is found by the following kinematic formula:

\alpha = \frac{\omega_{f}-\omega_{o}}{t} (1)

Where:

  • \omega_{o} - Initial angular speed, in revolutions per second.
  • \omega_{f} - Final angular speed, in revolutions per second.
  • t - Time, in seconds.

If we know that \omega_{o} = \frac{5}{12}\,\frac{rev}{s}, \omega_{f} = 0\,\frac{rev}{s} y t = 15\,s, then the angular acceleration of the disc is:

\alpha = \frac{0\,\frac{rev}{s}-\frac{5}{12}\,\frac{rev}{s}}{15\,s}

\alpha = -\frac{1}{36}\,\frac{rev}{s^{2}}

The angular acceleration of the disc is \frac{1}{36} radians per square second.

ii) The number of rotations that the disk makes before it stops (\Delta \theta), in revolutions, is determined by the following formula:

\Delta \theta  = \frac{\omega_{f}^{2}-\omega_{o}^{2}}{2\cdot \alpha} (2)

If we know that \omega_{o} = \frac{5}{12}\,\frac{rev}{s}, \omega_{f} = 0\,\frac{rev}{s} y \alpha = -\frac{1}{36}\,\frac{rev}{s^{2}}, then the number of rotations done by the disc is:

\Delta \theta = 3.125\,rev

The disc makes 3.125 revolutions before it stops.

a dump truck travels 70mph for 3 hours, then for 20mph for another 2 hours in the same direction. what is the average speed the
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

the average speed of the car is 170 mph.

Explanation:

Given;

initial speed, u = 70 mph

time of motion, t₁ = 3 hours

final speed, v = 20 mph

time of motion, t₂ = 2 hours

The average speed of the car is calculated as;

v' = \frac{70(3) - 20(2)}{3-2} \\\\v' = 170 \ mph

Therefore, the average speed of the car is 170 mph.

A 25-cm rod moves at 5. 0 m/s in a plane perpendicular to a magnetic field of strength 0. 25 t. the rod, velocity vector, and ma
Bad White [126]

Length L = 25 cm = 0.25 m,  B = 600 G =  0.06 T ( 1G = 0.0001 T)

emf= 10 V

Solution:

emf = vBL

v= emf / BL

5 = emf/ (0.25 T× 0.25 m)

emf = 0.3125 v

Magnetic field

The magnetic influence on moving electric charges, electric currents, and magnetic materials is described by a magnetic field, which is a vector field. A force perpendicular to the charge's own velocity and the magnetic field acts on it when the charge is travelling through a magnetic field.
