How can you tell whether light is polarized?

2. A person applies a force of 66 N to a fridge as they push it across the length of a standard tennis court. So far today, the

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

$P=39.2205\, watt$

$E=374.948 \,cal$

Explanation:

Given that:

force applied, $F=66\,N$

displacement, $s=23.77\,m$ (length of a tennis court)

time taken for pushing, t = 40 s

Since, work is given by:

$W=F.s$

$W=66\times 23.77$

$W=1568.82\,J$

Now, power is given as:

$P=\frac{W}{t}$

$P=\frac{1568.82}{40}$

$P=39.2205 \,watt$

Calories consumed is:

$E= 1568.82\times 0.239$

$E=374.948\, cal$

A table exerts a 4.0 Newton force on a book which lies at rest on its top. The force exerted by the book on the table is

SOVA2 [1]

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the third option. <span>The force exerted by the book on the table is equal to the force exerted by the table which is 4.0 N. The book does not move so it must be that the forces are balanced. Hope this answers the question.</span>

15) Very cold climates occur at Earth's North and South Poles because the polar regions

Gwar [14]

Because the polar regions receive low-angle insolation.

Insolation is the amount of solar radiation received by a given area. The Sun is always low on the horizon. The low Sun angle makes the beam of solar radiation to travel a longer distance from upper troposphere to reach earth's surface as compared to when it is directly overhead. In this case, the radiations are scattered and reflected more by the atmosphere and spread over a larger area. Thus, the intensity of solar radiation is very less at polar regions than near the equatorial region. This is the reason of very cold climates at polar regions.

Two blocks of masses M 1 and M 2 are connected by a massless string that passes over a massless pulley as shown in the figure. M

stealth61 [152]

The mass M1 is 7.8 kg

Explanation:

Block M1 is hanging on the string while block M2 is on the frictionless ramp.

We have to write the equations of motion for the two blocks.

- For M1, the only two forces acting on it are the force of gravity $M_1 g$ (downward) and the tension in the string T (upward). So we can write

$M_1 g - T = M_1 a$

where

$M_1$ is the mass of the block

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

$a$ is the acceleration of the system

- For M2, the only two forces acting on it are the tension in the string T (acting up along the ramp) and the component of the gravity acting down along the ramp, $M_2 g sin \theta$ . So the equation of motion is
