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.

Two objects carry initial charges that are q1 and q2, respectively, where |q2| > |q1|. They are located 0.160 m apart and beh
mart [117]

Answer:

\rm |q_1|=8.0\times 10^{-7}\ C,\ \ \ |q_2| = 4.6\times 10^{-6}\ C.

Explanation:

According to the Coulomb's law, the magnitude of the electrostatic force between two static point charges  \rm q_1 and \rm q_1, separated by a distance \rm r, is given by

\rm F = \dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}.

where k is the Coulomb's constant.

Initially,

\rm r = 0.160\ m\\F_i = -1.30\ N.\\\\and \ \ |q_2|>|q_1|.

The negative sign is taken with force F because the force is attractive.

Therefore, the initial electrostatic force between the charges is given by

\rm F_i = \dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}.\\-1.30=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{0.160^2}\\\rm\Rightarrow q_2 = \dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{q_1k}\ \ \ ..............\ (1).

Now, the objects are then brought into contact, so the net charge is shared equally, and then they are returned to their initial positions.

The force is now repulsive, therefore, \rm F_f = +1.30\ N.

The new charges on the two objects are

\rm q_1'=q_2' = \dfrac{q_1+q_2}{2}.

The new force is given by

\rm F_f = \dfrac{kq_1'q_2'}{r^2}\\+1.30=\dfrac{k\left (\dfrac{q_1+q_2}{2}\right )\left (\dfrac{q_1+q_2}{2}\right )}{0.160^2}\\\Rightarrow \left (\dfrac{q_1+q_2}{2}\right )^2=\dfrac{+1.30\times 0.160^2}{k}\\(q_1+q_2)^2=\dfrac{4\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{k}\\q_1^2+q_2^2+2q_1q_2=\dfrac{4\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{k}\\\\

Using (1),

\rm q_1^2+\left ( \dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{q_1k}\right )^2+2\left (\dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{k} \right )=\dfrac{4\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{k}\\q_1^2+\dfrac 1{q_1^2}\left ( \dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{k}\right )^2-\left (\dfrac{6\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{k} \right )=0\\q_1^4+\left ( \dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{k}\right )^2-q_1^2\left (\dfrac{6\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{k} \right )=0

\rm q_1^4+\left ( \dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{k}\right )^2-q_1^2\left (\dfrac{6\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{k} \right )=0\\q_1^4+\left ( \dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{9\times 10^9}\right )^2-q_1^2\left (\dfrac{6\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{9\times 10^9} \right )=0\\q_1^4-q_1^2\left (\dfrac{6\times 1.30\times 0.160^2}{9\times 10^9} \right )+\left ( \dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{9\times 10^9}\right )^2=0

\rm q_1^4-q_1^2\left (2.22\times 10^{-11} \right )+\left ( 1.37\times 10^{-23}\right ) =0\\\Rightarrow q_1^2 = \dfrac{-(-2.22\times 10^{-11})\pm \sqrt{(-2.22\times 10^{-11})^2-4\cdot (1)\cdot (1.37\times 10^{-23})}}{2}\\=1.11\times 10^{-11}\pm 1.046\times 10^{-11}.\\=6.4\times 10^{-13}\ \ \ or\ \ \ 2.156\times 10^{-11}\\\Rightarrow q_1 = \pm 8.00\times 10^{-7}\ C\ \ \ or\ \ \ \pm 4.64\times 10^{-6}\ C.

Using (1),

When \rm q_1 = \pm 8.00\times 10^{-7}\ C,

\rm q_2=\dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{\pm 8.00\times 10^{-7}\times 9\times 10^9}=\mp4.6\times 10^{-6}\ C.

When \rm q_1=\pm 4.6\times 10^{-6}\ C,

\rm q_2=\dfrac{-1.30\times 0.160^2}{\pm 4.64\times 10^{-6}\times 9\times 10^9}=\mp7.97\times 10^{-7}\ C\approx 8.0\times 10^{-7}\ C.

Since, \rm |q_2|>|q_1|

Therefore, \rm |q_1|=8.0\times 10^{-7}\ C,\ \ \ |q_2| = 4.6\times 10^{-6}\ C.

nalin [4]

Answer: One neutron

Explanation:

one neutron 1/0n

Sum up the mass numbers on the right 99 + 135 + 2 = 236.

The sum of the mass numbers on the left should equal 236. 235 + 1 = 236

Which of these is the most likely impact of solar prominence on Earth?
svlad2 [7]

<span>Solar prominences themselves are of no concern because they are visible in the Hydrogen Alpha wavelength. They are anchored in place by magnetic fields. When these fields break or reconnect, it can send the plasma that makes up the prominence away from the sun. If one of these clouds impacts Earth, they are called CMEs or coronal mass ejections. Depending on the magnetic orientation of the cloud with respect to Earth's the CME can break down our magnetic field resulting in geomagnetic storms, aurorae, power grid fluctuations, and particle radiation near the poles, satellite single upset events, and radio blackouts. </span>
