Answer:

Polarization, also called wave polarization, is an expression of the orientation of the lines of electric flux in an electromagnetic field ( EM field ). Polarization can be constant -- that is, existing in a particular orientation at all times, or it can rotate with each wave cycle.

Polarization also occurs when light is scattered while traveling through a medium. When light strikes the atoms of a material, it will often set the electrons of those atoms into vibration. The vibrating electrons then produce their own electromagnetic wave that is radiated outward in all directions.

Answer:

the answer is A.) -1 * 10^3[N]

Explanation:

The solution consists of two steps, the first step is using the following kinematic equation:

$v=v_{i} +a*t\\where:\\v=final velocity [m/s]\\v_{i}=initial velocity [m/s]\\a=acceleration[m/^2]\\t=time[s]\\$

The initial velocity is 10 [m/s], and the final velocity is zero because the car stops in 0.5[s].

Replacing:

$0=10+a*(0.5)\\a=-20[m/s^2]$

Now in the second part, we need to use the second law of Newton, this law relates the forces with the acceleration of a body.

In the moment when the car stops suddenly the driver will feel the force of the seatbelt acting in the opposite direction of the movement.

$F=m*a\\F=50[kg]*(-20[m/s^2])\\units\[kg]*[m/s^2]=[N]\\F=-1000[N] or -1*10^{3} [N]$

The minus sign means that the force is acting in the opposite direction of the movement.
