Identify and sketch all the external forces acting on the chair. because the chair can be represented as a point particle of mas
s m, draw the forces with their tails centered on the black dot in the middle of the chair. be certain to draw your forces so that they have the correct orientation.
2 answers:
There are two external force acts on the chair.
1. The force due to earth gravity, acts in the downward direction.
2. Reaction force of the gravity, which acts in the Upward direction (Normal Force).
On every object, there is a force acts due to gravity of earth, which pulls the object towards the centre of earth, known as gravity force, always acts in the downward direction. Mathematically it's given as
F=mg
here, m is the mass of the object, and g is the acceleration of gravity.
To balance this gravity force, a counter force acts in the opposite direction, whose magnitude is equal to the force of gravity
The two forces will act on the chair i.e. and
.
Further Explanation:
Free body diagram is the graphical representation or illustration of all the forces applied on the body with their directions. This helps us to visualize all the applied forces on the body with their directions and make us possible to solve complex problems based on kinematics.
The normal force which is always perpendicular to the surface of the object and there is force due to gravity of the earth which pulls the object toward the center of the earth given by . Its magnitude depends upon the mass of the body and expressed as mg. Here, the term
is called acceleration due to gravity and it has a constant value of
.
Concept:
The chair is represented as a point particle of mass .
The diagram is drawn as shown in Figure 1.
The chair has two forces acting in two directions, upward and downward direction.
• The upward normal force or the reaction force.
• The downward force due to gravity of the earth.
The normal force is equal to the magnitude of the force due to gravity but opposite in direction to balance the force due to gravity.

Answer: The unpolarized light's intensity is reduced by the factor of two when it passes through the polaroid and becomes linearly polarized in the plane of the Polaroid. When the polarized light passes through the polaroid with the plane of polarization at an angle with respect to the polarization plane of the incoming light, the light's intensity is reduced by the factor of
(this is the Law of Malus).
Explanation: Let us say we have a beam of unpolarized light of intensity that passes through two parallel Polaroid discs with the angle of
between their planes of polarization. We are asked to find
such that the intensity of the outgoing beam is
. To solve this we follow the steps below:
Step 1. It is known that when the unpolarized light passes through a polaroid its intensity is reduced by the factor of two, meaning that the intensity of the beam passing through the first polaroid is
This beam also becomes polarized in the plane of the first polaroid.
Step 2. Now the polarized beam hits the surface of the second polaroid whose polarization plane is at an angle with respect to the plane of the polarization of the beam. After passing through the polaroid, the beam remains polarized but in the plane of the second polaroid and its intensity is reduced, according to the Law of Malus, by the factor of
This yields
. Substituting from the previous step we get
yielding
and finally,
