Answer:

   θ  = 45º

Explanation:

The light that falls on the second polarized is polarized, therefore it is governed by the law of Maluz

              I = I₀ cos² θ

in the problem they ask us

            I = ½ I₀

let's look for the angles

             ½ I₀ = I₀ cos² θ

             cos θ  = √ ½ = 0.707

            θ  = cos 0.707

           θ  = 45º

At t = 0, object A is dropped from the roof of a building. At the same instant, object B is dropped from a window 10 m below the
dsp73

Answer:

Explanation:

Given two objects are dropped simultaneously

Object A is 10 m higher than object B therefore

Distance covered by object A is given by

y_a(t) is given by

y=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where y=displacement

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

t=time

y_a(t)=0+0.5gt^2--1

for object B

y_b(t)=0+0.5gt^2--2

Subtract 1 and 2 we get

y_a(t)-y_b(t)=0

i.e. they will travel equal distance in equal time and distance between them remain 10 m until object B hits the ground

Consider a hydrogen atom in the n = 1 state. The atom is placed in a uniform B field of magnitude 2.5 T. Calculate the energy di
dlinn [17]

Answer:

E=29\times 10^{-5}eV

Explanation:

For n-=1 state hydrogen energy level is split into three componets in the presence of external magnetic field. The energies are,

E^{+}=E+\mu B,

E^{-}=E-\mu B,

E^{0}=E

Here, E is the energy in the absence of electric field.

And

E^{+} and E^{-} are the highest and the lowest energies.

The difference of these energies

\Delta E=2\mu B

\mu=9.3\times 10^{-24}J/T is known as Bohr's magneton.

B=2.5 T,

Therefore,

\Delta E=2(9.3\times 10^{-24}J/T)\times 2.5 T\\\Delta E=46.5\times 10^{-24}J

Now,

Delta E=46.5\times 10^{-24}J(\frac{1eV}{1.6\times 10^{-9}J } )\\Delta E=29.05\times 10^{-5}eV\\Delta E\simeq29\times 10^{-5}eV

Therefore, the energy difference between highest and lowest energy levels in presence of magnetic field is E=29\times 10^{-5}eV
