Machines makes work easier by increasing the amount of force that is applied, and changing the direction in which the force is applied !! Hope it helped (p.s. I had this same question)
Answer
given,
angle between two polarizing filters = 45°
filter reduce intensity = ?
a) I = I₀ Cos² θ
here θ = 45⁰
intensity of the light is reduced by 0.500
correct answer from the given option D
b) direction of the polarization
θ = 45°

The Capacitive reactance of a capacitor is dependent upon the frequency. The lower the frequency, the higher the reactance, the higher the frequency, the lower the reactance. The equation is
Xc = 1/(2*pi*f*C)
where
Xc = Reactance in ohms
pi = 3.1415926535.....
f = frequency in hertz.
C = capacitance in farads.
I'm assuming that the voltage and resistor mentioned in the question are for later parts that are not mentioned in this question. Reason is that they have no effect on the reactance, but would have an effect if a question about current draw is made in a later part. With that said, let's calculate the reactance.
The 120 rad/s frequency is better known as 60 Hz.
Substitute known values into the formula.
Xc = 1/(2*pi* 60 * 0.00000480)
Xc = 1/0.001809557
Xc = 552.6213302
Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 553 ohms.</span>
The recoil velocity of cannon is (4) 5.0 m/s
Explanation:
We can find the recoil velocity from the law of conservation of momentum.
The recoil velocity is velocity of body 2 after release of body 1, i.e. velocity of cannon after release of clown.
Let v2 be cannon's velocity, v1 be clown's velocity given = 15 m/sec
m1 be clown's mass = 100kg and m2 be cannon's mass given = 500kg.
So recoil velocity of cannon v2 is given by,
v2 = -(m1÷m2)v1
v2 = -(100÷500)15
v2 = -5 m/s
where the minus sign refers to the direction of cannon's recoil velocity being opposite to that of clown.
Hence, option (4)5.0 m/s is the correct answer.
