Answer:

A. 0.20 unpolarized and 0.80 plane polarized.

Explanation:

After passing through polaroid sheet , unpolarised portion will get reduced by half . So this portion becomes .20/ 2 = 0.10

The polarized portion can face two situation depending upon the angle of the polaroid.

It may either be cut off to zero. So total intensity of transmitted light  wil be .10 + 0 = .10

It may or be passed fully . In that case total intensity of transmitted light will become 0 .10 +0.80 =0.90

Ratio of these two light of maximum and minimum intensity is 0.90 / 0.10 = 9.

How many seconds will elapse between seeing lightning and hearing the thunder if the lightning strikes 1mi (5280 ft) away and th
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

t = 4.58 s

Explanation:

In this problem, we need to find the time elapse between seeing lightning and hearing the thunder if the lightning strikes 1mi (5280 ft) away and the air temperature is 90.0°F.

T = 90.0°F = 32.2 °C

The speed of sound at temperature T is given by :

v = (331.3 +0.6T)

Put T = 32.2°C

So,

v = (331.3 +0.6(32.2))

= 350.62 m/s

We have, distance, d = 1 mile = 1609.34

So,

t=\dfrac{d}{v}\\\\t=4.58\ s

So, the required time is equal to 4.58 seconds.

Which of the following best describes what alveolar are
Zolol [24]
Alveoli are tiny balloon shaped structures and are the smallest passageway in the respiratory system. The alveoli are only one cell thick, allowing the relatively easy passage of oxygen and carbon dioxide (CO2) between the alveoli and blood vessels called capillaries.
