Light that is polarized along the vertical direction is incident on a sheet of polarizing material. Only 92% of the intensity of

the light passes through the sheet and strikes a second sheet of polarizing material. No light passes through the second sheet. What angle does the transmission axis of the second sheet make with the vertical?

Answer:

73.5°

Explanation:

I = I₀ Cos²Ф.

.92 = Cos²Ф

Ф = 16.5°

So first sheet makes an angle of 16.5° with the vertical.

Second sheet must be perpendicular to the first one because it blocks the whole light. So second sheet makes an angle of 90 + 16.5 = 106.5° with the vertical.That is 73.5 ° with the vertical. Or it may form an angle of 90-16.5 =

73.5° with the vertical when we consider in counter-clockwise direction.

A pickup truck is traveling down the highway at a steady speed of 30.1 m/s. The truck has a drag coefficient of 0.45 and a cross
Sav [38]

Answer:

The energy that the truck lose to air resistance per hour is 87.47MJ

Explanation:

To solve this exercise it is necessary to compile the concepts of kinetic energy because of the drag force given in aerodynamic bodies. According to the theory we know that the drag force is defined by

F_D=\frac{1}{2}\rhoC_dAV^2

Our values are:

V=30.1m/s

C_d=0.45

A=3.3m^2

\rho=1.2kg/m^3

Replacing,

F_D=\frac{1}{2}(1.2)(0.45)(3.3)(30.1)^2

F_D=807.25N

We need calculate now the energy lost through a time T, then,

W = F_D d

But we know that d is equal to

d=vt

Where

v is the velocity and t the time. However the time is given in seconds but for this problem we need the time in hours, so,

W=(807.25N)(30.1m/s)(3600s/1hr)

W=87.47*10^6J (per hour)

Therefore the energy that the truck lose to air resistance per hour is 87.47MJ

Enter an expression for the force constant for the floating raft, in terms of L, g, and the density of water, ρ.
andriy [413]

Answer:

K = ρL²g

Explanation:

Consider L as the length of the raft inside the water when the raft is displaced through additional distance y;

Then:

F = upthrust ( restoring force) = weight of the liquid displaced.

F = V_{\omega} \rho_{\omega} g= A y \rho_{\omega} g

where;

A = L²

\rho_{\omega} = \rho

F = ky.

Then,

Ay \rho g = ky

L^2y \rho g = ky

Divide both sides by y

K = ρL²g

A 150kg person stands on a compression spring with spring constant 10, 000 N/m and norminal.Length of 0.50.What is the togal len
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Total length of spring 0.647 m

Explanation:

We have given mass of the person m = 150 kg

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

Spring constant k = 10000 N/m

Nominal length of spring = 0.50

According to hook's law

mg=kx

150\times 9.8=10000\times x

x = 0.147 m

So total length of spring = 0.50+0.147 = 0.647 m

Marizza181 [45]
Using the pressure law (P1 x V1)/ T1 = (P2 x V2)/ T2 where P1= the initial pressure V1= initial volume T1= initial temperature and P2= the final pressure V2= the final volume T2 = the final temperature and temperature is always in kelvin
