Answer: The correct answer is 12 inches.

Explanation:

Image is formed in the plane mirror:

  • Image formed by the plane mirrors is of same size and shape as that of the object .
  • Distance between the image formed and the mirror is equal to the distance between the object and mirror.

According to question the the height of the image formed in the plane mirror will be of same height as that of the object that is 12 inches.

Hence, the correct answer is 12 inches.

salantis [7]

Answer:

Th-234, Pa-234

Explanation:

In alpha decay, 2 protons and 2 neutrons are lost.  So U-238 would become Th-234.

In beta decay, one neutron is turned into a proton.  So Th-234 would become Pa-234.

What is the transmitted intensity of light if an additional polarizer is added perpendicular to the first polarizer in the setup
Fantom [35]

Answer:

3) Transmitted intensity of light if unpolarized light passes through a single polarizing filter = 40 W/m²

- Transmitted intensity of light if an additional polarizer is added perpendicular to the first polarizer in the setup described = 7.5 W/m²

Explanation:

Complete Question

3) What is the transmitted intensity of light if unpolarized light passes through a single polarizing filter and the initial intensity is 80 W/m²?

- What is the transmitted intensity of light if an additional polarizer is added perpendicular to the first polarizer in the setup described in Question 3 (the setup)? Show all work in your answer.

The image of this setup attached to this question as obtained from online is attached to this solution.

Solution

3) When unpolarized light passes through a single polarizer, the intensity of the light is cut in half.

Hence, if the initial intensity of unpolarized light is I₀ = 80 W/m²

The intensity of the light rays thay pass through the first single polarizer = I₁ = (I₀/2) = (80/2) = 40 W/m²

- According to Malus' law, the intensity of transmitted light through a polarizer is related to the intensity of the incident light and the angle at which the polarizer is placed with respect to the major axis of the polarizer before the current polarizer of concern.

I₂ = I₁ cos² θ

where

I₂ = intensity of light that passes through the second polarizer = ?

I₁ = Intensity of light from the first polarizer that is incident upon the second polarizer = 40 W/m²

θ = angle between the major axis of the first and second polarizer = 30°

I₂ = 40 (cos² 30°) = 40 (0.8660)² = 30 W/m²

In the same vein, the intensity of light that passes through the third/additional polarizer is related to the intensity of light that passes through the second polarizer and is incident upon this third/additional polarizer through

I₃ = I₂ cos² θ

I₃ = intensity of light that passes through the third/additional polarizer = ?

I₂ = Intensity of light from the second polarizer that is incident upon the third/additional polarizer = 30 W/m²

θ = angle between the major axis of the second and third/additional polarizer = 60° (although, it is 90° with respect to the first polarizer, it is the angle it makes with the major axis of the second polarizer, 60°, that matters)

I₃ = 30 (cos² 60°) = 30 (0.5)² = 7.5 W/m²

Hope this Helps!!!

__________ curves help lessen the effect of the force of the forward motion on your vehicle as it enters the curve.
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

Banked

Explanation:

Banked curves are formed when the inner edge is below the outer edge.

It is done in order to ensure the reliability of the frictional force as it varies when the road is wet wet or oily. Thus in order to avoid these problems the curved roads are banked.

Banking of the curve provides the necessary centripetal force, i.e., the horizontal component of the normal reaction force to keep the vehicle i motion and thus helps in reducing the effect of the forward motion force on the vehicle.

Which event in a solar cell uses the photoelectric effect?
Helen [10]

Explanation:

Photovoltaic energy is a clean, renewable source of energy that uses solar radiation to produce electricity. It is based on the photoelectric effect—the emission of electrons when electromagnetic radiation (i.e. light) hits a material.
