A polarized light that has an intensity I0 = 60.0 W/m² is incident on three polarizing disks whose planes are parallel and cente

red on a common axis. Suppose that the transmission axis of the first polarizer is rotated 20° relative to the axis of polarization of the incident light, and that the transmission axis of each additional analyzer is rotated 20° relative to the transmission axis of the previous one. Calculate the transmitted intensity through all polarizers.

Answer:

The transmitted intensity through all polarizers is I_3 =41.31 W/m^2

Explanation:

 According to Malu's law the intensity of a polarized light having an initial intensity I_0 is mathematically represented as

               I = I_0cos^2 \theta

Now  considering the polarizer(The polarizing disk) the equation above becomes

          I = I_0 (cos^2 \theta)^n

Where n is the number of polarizers

       Substituting  60.0W/m^2 for the initial intensity 3 for the n and 20° for the angle of rotation

           I_3 = 60 (cos^220)^3

               =41.31 W/m^2

three condensers are connected in series across a 150 volt supply. The voltages across them are 40,50 and 60 volts respectively,
ioda

Explanation:

Given that,

The voltages across them are 40,50 and 60 volts respectively, and the charge on each condenser is 6×10⁻⁸ C.

(a) Capacitance of capacitor 1,

C_1=\dfrac{Q}{V_1}\\\\C_1=\dfrac{6\times 10^{-8}}{40}\\\\C_1=1.5\times 10^{-9}\ F\\\\C_1=1.5\ nF

Capacitance of capacitor 2,

C_2=\dfrac{Q}{V_2}\\\\C_2=\dfrac{6\times 10^{-8}}{50}\\\\C_2=1.2\times 10^{-9}\ F\\\\C_2=1.2\ nF

Capacitance of capacitor 3,

C_3=\dfrac{Q}{V_3}\\\\C_3=\dfrac{6\times 10^{-8}}{60}\\\\C_3=1\times 10^{-9}\ F\\\\C_3=1\ nF

(b) The equivalent capacitance in series combination is :

\dfrac{1}{C}=\dfrac{1}{C_1}+\dfrac{1}{C_2}+\dfrac{1}{C_3}\\\\\dfrac{1}{C}=\dfrac{1}{1.5}+\dfrac{1}{1.2}+\dfrac{1}{1}\\\\C=0.4\ nF

Hence, this is the required solution.

Think in gravity, the moon is orbiting the Earth because of gravitational pull/force. Without this gravitational pull, the moon will just move in a straight line (Newton's first law).

What does frequency describe?
ddd [48]

The whole definition of frequency is:  <em>How often something happens.  </em>

Especially referring to something that happens over and over and over and over.

One example is Choice-C: How often the particles of a medium vibrate.

"Frequency" comes from the word "frequent".  That means "often", and "frequency" just means "often-ness" ... HOW often the thing happens.

Some other examples:

Frequency of jump-roping . . . maybe 60 per minute .

Frequency of rain . . . maybe 5 per month .

Frequency of an AM radio station . . . maybe 1 million waves per second.

(If it's something <u><em>per second</em></u>, then we call it "Hertz".  That's not for the car rental company.  It's for Heinrich Hertz, the German Physicist who was the first one to prove that electromagnetic waves exist.  He sent radio waves all the way ACROSS HIS LABORATORY and detected them at the other side ( ! ), in 1887.)

Frequency of the wiggles in the sound wave coming out of a trumpet playing the note ' A ' . . . 440 Hertz.

Frequency of sunrise and the Chicago Tribune newspaper . . . 1 per day

Frequency of the cycle of Moon phases and an average human woman's ovulation cycle: 1 per 29.531 days, 1 per ~28 days .
