As light travels through a medium, it moves in a straight line path,but when light passes from one medium into another medium, the light path bends,Refraction takes place.
The modern name, Mount St. Helen's, was given to the volcanic peak in 1792 by seafarer and explorer Captain George Vancouver of the British Royal Navy. He named it in honor of fellow countryman Alleyne Fitzherbert, who held the title 'Baron St. Helen's.
Answer:
Weight
Explanation:
The spring balance is used to measure weight of an object.
Answer:
the intensity of the light after passing through the two polarizing filters is 4.11 units
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
the intensity of an unpolarized light; I₀ = 25.0 units
when the unpolarized light passes through the first polarizer, its intensity reduces to half of its initial value;
⇒ I₁ = I₀/2 = 25/2 = 12.5 units
the angle between the transmission axes of two polarizers is;
∅ = 55° - 0° = 55°
The intensity of the light after passing through two polarizing filters will be;
I₂ = I₁cos²∅
we substitute
I₂ = 12.5 × cos²(55)
I₂ = 12.5 × 0.3289899
I₂ = 4.11 units
Therefore, the intensity of the light after passing through the two polarizing filters is 4.11 units
Answer:
x = 0.6034 m
Explanation:
Given
L = 5 m
Wplank = 225 N
Wman = 522 N
d = 1.1 m
x = ?
We have to take sum of torques about the right support point. If the board is just about to tip, the normal force from the left support will be going to zero. So the only torques come from the weight of the plank and the weight of the man.
∑τ = 0 ⇒ τ₁ + τ₂ = 0
Torque come from the weight of the plank = τ₁
Torque come from the weight of the man = τ₂
⇒ τ₁ = + (5 - 1.1)*(225/5)*((5 - 1.1)/2) - (1.1)*(225/5)*((1.1)/2) = 315 N-m (counterclockwise)
⇒ τ₂ = Wman*x = 522 N*x (clockwise)
then
τ₁ + τ₂ = (315 N-m) + (- 522 N*x) = 0
⇒ x = 0.6034 m
