Answer: False

Explanation:

The given statement is false as, the headlands are not form by the wave deposition. The headlands are mainly the part of the shore which sticks out in the oceans. It is basically formed on the harsh coastlines with the help of the bands of the rocks.

The headlands are form with the alternating band of the rocks during the ocean attack in the part of the coastlines. The headlands are also known as coastal land form and it is characterized as follows:

Rocky shores
Breaking waves
Steep sea cliff
Intense erosion

Unpolarized light with intensity I0I0I_0 is incident on an ideal polarizing filter. The emerging light strikes a second ideal po

zvonat [6]

Answer:

$0.293I_0$

Explanation:

When the unpolarized light passes through the first polarizer, only the component of the light parallel to the axis of the polarizer passes through.

Therefore, after the first polarizer, the intensity of light passing through it is halved, so the intensity after the first polarizer is:

$I_1=\frac{I_0}{2}$

Then, the light passes through the second polarizer. In this case, the intensity of the light passing through the 2nd polarizer is given by Malus' law:

$I_2=I_1 cos^2 \theta$

where

$\theta$ is the angle between the axes of the two polarizer

Here we have

$\theta=40^{\circ}$

So the intensity after the 2nd polarizer is

$I_2=I_1 (cos 40^{\circ})^2=0.587I_1$

And substituting the expression for I1, we find:

$I_2=0.587 (\frac{I_0}{2})=0.293I_0$

How can wind put off fire?

kipiarov [429]

♥ If the wind is strong enough it can do so.
♥ By having a strong enough wind you can blow out the fire before the flame can consume any more vapor.
♥ If the wind is fast enough, like a birthday cake candle for example, the wind will burn out.

Veseljchak [2.6K]

The model bridge captures all the structural attributes of the real bridge, at a reduced scale.

Part a.
Note that volume is proportional to the cube of length. Therefore the actual bridge will have 100^3 = 10^6 times the mass of the model bridge.

Because the model bridge weighs 50 N, the real bridge weighs
(50 N)*10^6 = 50 MN.

Part b.
The model bridge matches the structural characteristics of the actual bridge.
Therefore the real bridge will not sag either.

Light travels at 3 × 108 m/s, and it takes about 8 min for light from the sun to travel to Earth. Based on this, the order of ma

N76 [4]

Answer:

The order of magnitude of the distance from the sun to Earth is 10⁸ km.

Explanation:

The order of magnitude of the distance from the sun to Earth can be calculated as follows:

$c = \frac{x}{t}$

Where:

c: is the speed of light = 3x10⁸ m/s

t: is the time = 8 min

Hence, the distance is:

$x = c*t = 3 \cdot 10^{8} m/s*8 min*\frac{60 s}{1 min} = 1.44 \cdot 10^{11} m = 1.44 \cdot 10^{8} km$

Therefore, the order of magnitude of the distance from the sun to Earth is 10⁸ km.

I hope it helps you!

It takes you 5 min to walk with an average velocity of .75 m/s to the north from the parking lot to the entrance of the amusemen

skad [1K]

A displacement is a vector quantity that takes into account the shortest distance from the starting point to the endpoint.

The given above gave a time interval in minutes which needs to be converted to seconds. Given that each minute is 60 seconds, 5 minutes equal 300 seconds. To determine the distance, multiply time with speed. The product is 225 m.

Thus, the displacement is 225 m.
