Answer:

Explanation:

Intensity of unpolarized light = I(0)

After first polarization its intensity becomes I (0)/2

After second polarization its its intensity becomes I(0) /2 Cos²θ where θ is angle between two polaroid

So I₁ =I(0)/2 X Cos²θ .

I₁/I(0) = 1/10 = .5 X Cos²θ

Cos ²θ = 0.2

θ = 63 degree.

Examine the cross-sectional slice of a stem of a mint plant. Which statement most specifically describes mint?
Maslowich

The available options are:

Mint is a dicot.

Mint is a monocot.

Mint is an angiosperm.

Mint is a bulb plant.

Answer:

Mint is a dicot.

Explanation:

Given the fact that Mint is considered to be a member of Lamiaceae, an angiosperm plant which is characterized by typically having leaves that consist of reticulate vacation and appears like veins in structure. It also has a seed that contains two cotyledons.

Hence, it is considered a DICOT PLANT due to these characteristics. The botanical name of Mint is referred to as Mentha arvensis.

The platform height for Olympic divers is 10 m. A 60 kg diver steps off the platform to begin his dive.
azamat

Answer:

a) Ep = 5886[J]; b) v = 14[m/s]; c)   W = 5886[J]; d) F = 1763.4[N]

Explanation:

a)

The potential energy can be found using the following expression, we will take the ground level as the reference point where the potential energy is equal to zero.

E_{p} =m*g*h\\where:\\m = mass = 60[kg]\\g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]\\h = elevation = 10 [m]\\E_{p}=60*9.81*10\\E_{p}=5886[J]

b)

Since energy is conserved, that is, potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy, the moment the harpsichord touches water, all potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy.

E_{p} = E_{k} \\5886 =0.5*m*v^{2} \\v = \sqrt{\frac{5886}{0.5*60} }\\v = 14[m/s]

c)

The work is equal to

W = 5886 [J]

d)

We need to use the following equation and find the deceleration of the diver at the moment when he stops his velocity is zero.

v_{f} ^{2}= v_{o} ^{2}-2*a*d\\where:\\d = 2.5[m]\\v_{f}=0\\v_{o} =14[m/s]\\Therefore\\a = \frac{14^{2} }{2*2.5} \\a = 39.2[m/s^2]

By performing a sum of forces equal to the product of mass by acceleration (newton's second law), we can find the force that acts to reduce the speed of the diver to zero.

m*g - F = m*a

F = m*a - m*g

F = (60*39.2) - (60*9.81)

F = 1763.4 [N]

outward from a wall just above floor level. A 1.5 kg box sliding across a frictionless floor hits the end of the spring and comp
sweet [91]

Answer:

v = 0.489 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of a box, m = 1.5 kg

The compression in the spring, x = 6.5 cm = 0.065 m

Let the spring constant of the spring is 85 N/m

We need to find the velocity of the box (v) when it hit the spring. It is based on the conservation of energy. The kinetic energy of spring before collision is equal to the spring energy after compression i.e.

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{kx^2}{m}} \\\\v=\sqrt{\dfrac{85\times (0.065)^2}{1.5}} \\\\v=0.489\ m/s

So, the speed of the box is 0.489 m/s.

What does a “fixed amount of fuel” mean?
klemol [59]

Answer:

A "fixed price" energy tariff means that your unit price for gas and electricity will not change for the duration of the plan. A variable rate means your energy price can vary during the plan. If you have a fixed price plan and your supplier announces a price rise, your rates will not change.
