Answer:

a.0.5 Io

Explanation:

The fraction of light passing through the first polarizer will be

I_1=\frac{I_0}{2}=0.5I_0

The fraction of light passing through the second polarizer will be

I_2=0.5I_0cos^2\theta

where

\theta = Angle between the filters

here, as the transmission directions are parallel to one another

\theta=0

I_2=0.5I_0cos^20\\\Rightarrow I_2=0.5I_0\\\Rightarrow I_2=I_1

Hence, 0.5I_0 will pass through both filters

A disk of mass m and moment of inertia of I is spinning freely at 6.00 rad/s when a second identical disk, initially not spinnin
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

The angular speed of the new system is 3\,\frac{rad}{s}.

Explanation:

Due to the absence of external forces between both disks, the Principle of Angular Momentum Conservation is observed. Since axes of rotation of each disk coincide with each other, the principle can be simplified into its scalar form. The magnitude of the Angular Momentum is equal to the product of the moment of inertial and angular speed. When both disks begin to rotate, moment of inertia is doubled and angular speed halved. That is:

I\cdot \omega_{o} = 2\cdot I \cdot \omega_{f}

Where:

I - Moment of inertia of a disk, measured in kilogram-square meter.

\omega_{o} - Initial angular speed, measured in radians per second.

\omega_{f} - Final angular speed, measured in radians per second.

This relationship is simplified and final angular speed can be determined in terms of initial angular speed:

\omega_{f} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \omega_{o}

Given that \omega_{o} = 6\,\frac{rad}{s}, the angular speed of the new system is:

\omega_{f} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \left(6\,\frac{rad}{s} \right)

\omega_{f} = 3\,\frac{rad}{s}

The angular speed of the new system is 3\,\frac{rad}{s}.

Elaborate on the reason(s) that matter is said to move even as in a solid state.
Mariulka [41]

<u>Answer:</u>

The matter does not move in solid state but vibrates.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The atoms inside the matter cannot move or shift their positions without any external force but makes some small vibration movements. Generally in solids, the particles are bound by the attractive forces acting in between the atoms inside the matter.

The small vibrations that are happening inside the matter are because of the external factors like temperature. The increase in temperature raises the kinetic energy of the atoms inside and makes them move faster and this results in the vibration of the matter.

Which of the following is the same in all frames of reference?
Ksju [112]
The correct option is B.
The length of an object, the mass of an object and the rate of time passage for an object can change depending on the situation which the object is subject to. For instance in space, the mass and the velocity of an object usually change. But, the value of the speed of light in the space is the same for all observers regardless of the motion of an object, that is, the speed of light is a constant.<span />

Which statement is true?
Maurinko [17]
The correct answer is<span> B.The speed of sound in air is directly proportional to the temperature of the air.

When the temperature increases so does the speed of sound. Sound is faster by </span>0.60 m/s for every higher degree in air temperature because the air density is reduced and the sound can travel faster.
