How does bimettalic strip work?

Physics
1 answer:
mafiozo [28]4 years ago
6 0
A traditional thermostat has two pieces of different metals bolted together to form what's called a bimetallic strip (or bimetal strip). The strip works as a bridge in an electrical circuit connected to your heating system. ... Eventually, it bends so much that it breaks open the circuit.

Explain what surface tension is.
sergejj [24]
Surface tension<span> is a property of the surface of a liquid that allows it to resist an external force. for example, some objects can float on the surface of water, even though they are denser than water, and in the ability of some insectsto run on the water surface. This property is caused by cohesion of similar molecules, and is responsible for many of the behaviors of liquids.</span>

Which statements describe projectile motion? Check all that apply.
miv72 [106K]

In projectile motion we can say initial components of velocity is

v_x = v_0 cos\theta

v_y = v_0 sin\theta

now here horizontal motion is uniform motion as there is no force in this direction while in vertical direction due to gravity it will accelerate

so we have

x = v_0 cos\theta * t

y = v_0 sin\theta * t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

so here we have x and y coordinates are related to each other as it will take same time to move the positions

so here correct options are

<em>Projectile motion is a combination of horizontal and vertical motion. </em>

<em>The horizontal and vertical motions of a projectile are dependent on each other.</em>

Three perfectly polarizing sheets are spaced 2?cm {\rm cm} apart and in parallel planes. The transmission axis of the second she
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

I₃/Io % = 0.8.59

Explanation:

A polarizer is a complaint sheet for light in the polarization direction and blocks the perpendicular one. When we use two polarizers the transmission between them is described by Malus's law

      I = I₀ cos² θ

Let's apply the previous exposures in our case, the light is indicatively not polarized, so the first polarized lets half of the light pass

      I₁ = ½ I₀

The light transmitted by the second polarizer

     I₂ = I₁ cos²  θ

     I₂ = (½ I₀) cos2 28

The transmission by the polarizing  third is

     I₃ = I₂ cos²  θ₃    

The angle of the third polarizer with respect to the second is

     θ₃ = 90-28

      θ₃ = 62º

I₃ = (½ I₀ cos² 28 cos² 62)

Let's calculate

I₃ = Io ½ 0.7796 0.2204

I₃ = Io 0.0859

I₃/Io= 0.0859    100

I₃/Io % = 0.8.59
