The average intensity of light emerging from a polarizing sheet is 0.708 W/m2, and that of the horizontally polarized light inci

dent on the sheet is 0.960 W/m2. Determine the angle that the transmission axis of the polarizing sheet makes with the horizontal.

Answer:

Angle θ = 30.82°

Explanation:

From Malus’s law, since the intensity of a wave is proportional to its amplitude squared, the intensity I of the transmitted wave is related to the incident wave by; I = I_o cos²θ

where;

I_o is the intensity of the polarized wave before passing through the filter.

In this question,

I is 0.708 W/m²

While I_o is 0.960 W/m²

Thus, plugging in these values into the equation, we have;

0.708 W/m² = 0.960 W/m² •cos²θ

Thus, cos²θ = 0.708 W/m²/0.960 W/m²

cos²θ = 0.7375

Cos θ = √0.7375

Cos θ = 0.8588

θ = Cos^(-1)0.8588

θ = 30.82°

Name three bright Saturn ring features, and explain why they are so bright.
Leviafan [203]

The F Ring, the Cassini Division, and the C Ring are bright ring features. They are bright due to the low concentration of materials within them, which allows sunlight to shine through.

An emf is induced by rotating a 1060 turn, 20.0 cm diameter coil in the Earth's 5.25 ✕ 10−5 T magnetic field. What average emf (
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The average emf induced in the coil is 175 mV

Explanation:

Given;

number of turns of the coil, N = 1060 turns

diameter of the coil, d = 20.0 cm = 0.2 m

magnitude of the magnetic field,  B = 5.25 x 10⁻⁵ T

duration of change in field, t = 10 ms = 10 x 10⁻³ s

The average emf induced in the coil is given by;

E = N\frac{\delta \phi}{dt} \\\\E = N\frac{\delta B}{\delta t}A

where;

A is the area of the coil

A = πr²

r is the radius of the coil = 0.2 /2 = 0.1 m

A = π(0.1)² = 0.03142 m²

E = \frac{NBA}{t} \\\\E = \frac{1060*5.25*10^{-5}*0.03142}{10*10^{-3}} \\\\E = 0.175 \ V\\\\E = 175 \ mV

Therefore, the average emf induced in the coil is 175 mV
