Given data:

Volume of calcite (V) = 15 cm³,

mass of calcite (m) = 40.5 g,

find the

            density of calcite (ρ) = ?

density is defined as " it is the amount of matter of an object in a given volume". Simply it is the ratio of matter in an object to its volume. The unit of density is kg/m³ in SI system or g/cm³ in CGS system.

Mathematically,

                         density ( ρ) = mass/volume    

                                            = m/V     g/cm³

                                            = 40.5 g/15 cm³

                                            = 2.7 g/cm³

Hence, the density of calcite is <em>2.7 g/cm³ </em>

Linearly polarized light whose Jones vector is [0 1] (horizontally polarized) is sent through a train of two linear polarizers.
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

Following are the solution to the given question:

Explanation:

The input linear polarisation was shown at an angle of 2 \mu. It's a very popular use of a half-wave plate. In particular, consider the case \mu = 45 \pm, at which the angle of rotation is 90\pm. HWP thereby provides a great way to turn, for instance, a linear polarised light that swings horizontally to polarise vertically. Illustration of action on event circularly polarized light of the half-wave platform. Customarily it is the slow axis of HWP that corresponds to either the rotation. Note that perhaps the vector of polarization is "double-headed," i.e., the electromagnetic current swinging back and forward in time. Therefore the turning angle could be referred to as the rapid axis to reach the same result. Please find the attached file.

If the center of mass passes outside the area of support of an object, what will happen to it?
defon

Answer:

If a vertical line extending down from an object's CG extends outside its area of support, the object will topple

Explanation:

We can understand better this situation using a diagram with the forces acting on it.

In the attached image we can see that when the gravity center is bouncing outside from the area of the pedestal, the object will be out of balance and will fall.

Suppose that you observe light emitted from a distant star to be at a wavelength of 525 nm. The wavelength of light to an observ
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

The velocity of the star is 0.532 c.

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of observer = 525 nm

Wave length of source = 950 nm

We need to calculate the velocity

If the direction is from observer to star.

From Doppler effect

\lambda_{0}=\sqrt{\dfrac{c+v}{c-v}}\times\lambda_{s}

Put the value into the formula

525=\sqrt{\dfrac{c+v}{c-v}}\times950

\dfrac{c+v}{c-v}=(\dfrac{525}{950})^2

\dfrac{c+v}{c-v}=0.305

c+v=0.305\times(c-v)

v(1+0.305)=c(0.305-1)

v=\dfrac{0.305-1}{1+0.305}c

v=−0.532c

Negative sign shows the star is moving toward the observer.

Hence, The velocity of the star is 0.532 c.
