Why sunlight is not reflected when passed through an electric or magnetic field

Polaroid sunglasses are familiar to most of us. They have a special ability to cut the glare of light reflected from water or glass (see Figure 1). Polaroids have this ability because of a wave characteristic of light called polarization. What is polarization? How is it produced? What are some of its uses? The answers to these questions are related to the wave character of light.

Light is one type of electromagnetic (EM) wave. As noted earlier, EM waves are transverse waves consisting of varying electric and magnetic fields that oscillate perpendicular to the direction of propagation (see Figure 2). There are specific directions for the oscillations of the electric and magnetic fields. Polarization is the attribute that a wave’s oscillations have a definite direction relative to the direction of propagation of the wave. (This is not the same type of polarization as that discussed for the separation of charges.) Waves having such a direction are said to be polarized. For an EM wave, we define the direction of polarization to be the direction parallel to the electric field.

Answer: N/A

Explanation:

light consists of a magnetic wave and a electric wave. Due to the perpendicular infleunce of electric wave(particle) the magnetic field is very strongly influenced it(the magnetic wave) cannot be disturbed.

A baseball pitcher throws a ball at 90.0 mi/h in the horizontal direction. How far does the ball fall vertically by the time it

Lisa [10]

Answer:

Vertical distance= 3.3803ft

Explanation:

First with the speed of the ball and the distance traveled horizontally we can determine the flight time to reach the plate:

Velocity= (90 mi/h) × (1 mile/5280ft) = 475200ft/h

Distance= Velocity × time⇒ time= 60.5ft / (475200ft/h) = 0.00012731h

time= 0.00012731h × (3600s/h)= 0.458316s

With this time we can determine the distance traveled vertically taking into account that its initial vertical velocity is zero and its acceleration is that of gravity, 9.81m/s²:

Vertical distance= (1/2) × 9.81 (m/s²) × (0.458316s)²=1.0303m

Vertical distance= 1.0303m × (1ft/0.3048m) = 3.3803ft

This is the vertical distance traveled by the ball from the time it is thrown by the pitcher until it reaches the plate, regardless of air resistance.

A biologist formulates a hypothesis, performs experiments to test his hypothesis, makes careful observations, and keeps accurate

SVEN [57.7K]

<span>The next step of the scientific method is to analyze the results and draw conclusions. After that step, if the results agree with the hypothesis, then the results should be communicated. If the results do not support the original hypothesis, then the biologist must go back to the beginning and reformulate their hypothesis based on the results of the experiment.</span>

When a man returns to his well-sealed house on a summer day, he finds that the house is at 35°C. He turns on the air conditioner

Paul [167]

Answer:

1353.38 Watt

Explanation:

T₁ = Initial temperature of the house = 35°C

T₂ = Final temperature of the house = 20°C

Δt = Time taken to cool the house = 38 min = 38×60 = 2280 s

m = mass of air in the house = 800 kg

Cv = Specific heat at constant volume = 0.72 kJ/kgK

Cp = Specific heat at constant pressure = 1.0 kJ/kgK

Heat removed

q = mCvΔT

⇒q = 800×720×(35-20)

⇒q = 8640000 J

Average rate of hear removal

$Q=\frac{q}{\Delta t}\\\Rightarrow Q=\frac{8640000}{2280}\\\Rightarrow Q=3789.47\ W$

$COP=\frac{Q}{W}\\\Rightarrow W=\frac{Q}{COP}\\\Rightarrow W=\frac{3789.47}{2.8}\\\Rightarrow W=1353.38\ W$

∴ Power drawn by the air conditioner is 1353.38 Watt

How to eat butter . I want to know how you all eat the butter.

g100num [7]

Many people never even taste butter, instead use oleo or margerine...fake stuff. Real butter is the best topping for popcorn! And crab legs are good dipped in it, as well as hot corn on the cobb. This is how I eat butter.
