Unpolarized light of intensity 800 W/m2 is incident on two ideal polarizing sheets that are placed with their transmission axes

perpendicular to each other. An additional polarizing sheet is then placed between the two, with its transmission axis oriented at 30∘ to that of the first. What is the intensity of the light passing through the stack of polarizing sheets? (Express your answer to two significant figures.)

Answer:

75 W/m²

Explanation:

I_0 = Unpolarized light intensity = 800 W/m²

\theta = Angle between filters = 30°

Intensity of light after passing through first polarizer

I=\frac{I_0}{2}\\\Rightarrow I=\frac{800}{2}\\\Rightarrow I=400\ W/m^2

Intensity of light after passing through second polarizer

I_1=Icos^2\theta\\\Rightarrow I_1=400\times cos^2(30)\\\Rightarrow I_1=300\ W/m^2

Intensity of light after passing through third polarizer

I_2=I_1cos^2\theta\\\Rightarrow I_2=300\times cos^2(90-30)\\\Rightarrow I_1=75\ W/m^2

The intensity of the light passing through the stack of polarizing sheets is 75 W/m²

Is it possible to be moving but not be in motion?
GREYUIT [131]

No. Motion is the thing that when you're moving, you're in it.

But it IS possible for one person to say you're moving and another person to say you're not moving, both at the same time, and both of them are correct !

A speed-time graph is shown below:
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

It traveled 4 centimeters.

Explanation:

In a speed versus time graph, the distance travelled is given by the area under the graph.

In this graph we have the following:

- The speed of the object is v = 1 cm/s between time t = 0 s and t = 4 s

- The speed of the object is v = 0 cm/s between time t = 4 s and t = 8 s

Since the speed in the second part is zero, the distance travelled in the second part is zero. So, the only distance travelled by the object is the distance travelled during the first part, which is equal to the area of the first rectangle:

d=v\Delta t=(1)(4-0)=4 cm
