Is a process that modifies light waves so they vibrate in a single plane

The process you're fishing for is "polarization", but that's a

misleading description.

Polarization doesn't do anything to change the light waves. 

It simply filters out (absorbs, as with a polarizing filter) the

light waves that aren't vibrating in the desired plane, and

allows only those that are to pass.

The intensity of a light beam is always reduced after

polarizing it, because much (most) of the original light

has been removed.

A laser light source may be thought of as an exception,

since everything coming out of the laser is polarized.

A car battery has a rating of 170 ampere-hours. This rating is one indication of the total charge that the battery can provide t
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

612000 C

Explanation:

Current, I, is given as the rate of flow of charge, that is:

I = Δq / Δt

where q = electric charge

t = time taken

This implies that:

Δq = I * Δt

The battery rating is 170 Ampere-hours, therefore:

Δq = 170 * 1 hour

But 1 hour = 3600 seconds;

=> Δq = 170 * 3600 = 612000 C

The total charge that the battery can provide is 612000 C.

A school bus has a mass of 18,200 kg. The bus moves at 13.5 m/s. How fast must a 0.142-kg baseball move in order to have the sam
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

bus momentum

p_bus= m_bus x v_bus

=18,200 x 16.5

basball momentum

pball=mball x vball

=0.142 x v

p_bus = pball

18200 x 16.5 = 0.142 x v

v=(18200 x 16.5)/0.142

v is the answer for baseball
