Answer:

40.5 W/m²

Explanation:

Intensity of unpolarized light = 432 W/m² = I₀

Intensity of light as it passes through first polarizer

I = I₀×0.5

⇒I = 432×0.5

⇒I = 216 W/m²

Intensity of light as it passes through second polarizer. So, Intensity after it passes through first polarizer is the input for the second polarizer

I = I₀×0.5 cos²30

⇒I = 216×0.75

⇒I = 162 W/m²

Intensity of light as it passes through third polarizer.

I = I₀×0.5 cos²30×cos²60

⇒I = 162×0.25

⇒I = 40.5 W/m²

Intensity of light at the end is 40.5 W/m²

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

The ball doesn't strike the building because it strikes the ground at d=1.62 meters.

Explanation:

V= 5 m/s < 70º

Vx= 1.71 m/s

Vy= 4.69 m/s

h= Vy * t - g * t²/2

clearing t for the flying time of the ball:

t= 0.95 s

d= Vx * t

d= 1.62 m
