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

suppose a ball is thrown vertically upward. Eight seconds later it returns to its point of release. What is the initial velocity
valentinak56 [21]
The ball took half of the total time ... 4 seconds ... to reach its highest
point, where it began to fall back down to the point of release.

At its highest point, its velocity changed from upward to downward. 
At that instant, its velocity was zero.

The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s².  That means that an object that's
acted on only by gravity gains 9.8 m/s of downward speed every second. 

-- If the object is falling downward, it moves 9.8 m/s faster every second.

-- If the object is tossed upward, it moves 9.8 m/s slower every second.

The ball took 4 seconds to lose all of its upward speed.  So it must have
been thrown upward at  (4 x 9.8 m/s)  =  39.2 m/s .

(That's about  87.7 mph straight up.  Somebody had an amazing pitching arm.)

If a wave has amplitude of 2 meters, a wavelength of 5 meters, and a frequency of 60 Hz, at what speed is it moving?
klemol [59]
The relationship between speed of a wave w, frequency f and wavelength \lambda is
v = \lambda f
For the wave of our problem, \lambda = 5 m and f=60 Hz, so its speed is
v=(5 m)(60 Hz)=300 m/s

The frequency of violet light is 7.5x10 to the 14th power hertz. What is the wavelength?
Verizon [17]
Wavelength times frequency = speed of light
7.5E14 x wavelength = 300,000 m/s

Wavelength in meters = 300,000 divided by 7.5E14

A skier is skiing down a slope on the mountain.
uysha [10]

The mechanical energy isn't conserved. Some energy is lost to friction.

Option A.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The mechanical energy is defined as the energy of a body which it achieves by virtue of its position and velocity. The mechanical energy are of two types - potential energy and kinetic energy. The potential energy is the energy of the body which it achieves by means of its relative position and is directly proportional to the height of the body from its relative plane. Whereas the kinetic energy of the body is achieved by virtue of its velocity and is directly proportional to the square of velocity of the body.

As the mountaineer is skiing down the slope of a mountain, the potential energy of the person is gradually changing into his kinetic energy. Had it been in an ideal situation, the potential energy lost would have been just equal to the kinetic energy gained by the person. But there's friction which opposes the speed of the body and reduces the velocity. Thus the kinetic energy will be lost to some extent and the energy won't be conserved.
