Physics
1 answer:
S_A_V [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Light is one of nature's ways of moving energy from one place to another.

Explanation:

It has no substance, or mass. How does light travel? Light behaves like a traveling wave, something like waves in a string or on the surface of water.

Two sheets of polarizing material are placed such that their polarizing axes are 90° to each other and no light passes through t
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Polarization In this case angle of incidence is not equal to angle of polarization, hence reflected light is partially polarized and transmitted light is also partially polarized.  by reflection is explained by Brewster's law,  

According to this when unpolarized light incident on glass plate at an angle is called as angle of polarizing the reflected light is plane polarized, and transmitted light is partially polarized. The plane of vibration of polarized light is having plane of vibrations perpendicular to plane of incidence.

One end of a piano wire is wrapped around a cylindrical tuning peg and the other end is fixed in place. The tuning peg is turned
liq [111]

Answer:

T = 3183 N

Explanation:

When the screw is turned by two turns then change in the length of the wire is given as

\Delta L = 2(2\pi r)

\Delta L = 4\pi r

\Delta L = 4(\pi)(1.0 mm)

\Delta L = 12.56 mm

now we know by the formula of Young's modulus

Y = \frac{T/A}{\Delta L/L}

so we have

T = \frac{AY \Delta L}{L}

T = \frac{\pi (0.55 \times 10^{-3})^2(2.0 \times 10^{11})(12.56 \times 10^{-3})}{0.75}

T = 3183 N

A 50 kg person steps off a diving platform that is 10 meters above the water below (Olympic height). With what speed do they hit
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

14 m/s

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass = 50 kg

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Height (h) = 10 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Final velocity (v) =?

The velocity (v) with which the person hit the water can be obtained as shown below:

v² = u² + 2gh

v² = 0² + (2 × 9.8 × 10)

v² = 0 + 196

v² = 196

Take the square root of both side

v = √196

v = 14 m/s

Therefore, he will hit the water with a speed of 14 m/s
