Answer:

The speed is constant.

Speed is a scalar quantity (magnitude only).

Velocity is a vector quantity (magnitude and direction).

For an object in Uniform Circular Motion the change in velocity is always

directed towards the center of the circle, and this change of velocity

gives rise to the acceleration which is directed towards the center of

rotation. This is called the centripetal acceleration, and it is the centripetal

force (for instance the attraction of the moon towards the earth) which

produces the centripetal acceleration.

Answer:

The speed is constant.

Explanation:

In reality in circular motion the velocity is never constant because the object keeps changing direction in a continuous fashion. Remember velocity is measured by magnitude and direction. However we use the term constant velocity to mark constant speed for convenience.

A polarized light that has an intensity I0 = 60.0 W/m² is incident on three polarizing disks whose planes are parallel and cente

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

The transmitted intensity through all polarizers is $I_3 =41.31 W/m^2$

Explanation:

According to Malu's law the intensity of a polarized light having an initial intensity $I_0$ is mathematically represented as

$I = I_0cos^2 \theta$

Now considering the polarizer(The polarizing disk) the equation above becomes

$I = I_0 (cos^2 \theta)^n$

Where n is the number of polarizers

Substituting $60.0W/m^2$ for the initial intensity 3 for the n and 20° for the angle of rotation

$I_3 = 60 (cos^220)^3$

$=41.31 W/m^2$

An observer sees a full moon in the night sky. What will the Moon's phase be 10 days later?

algol [13]

I'm pretty sure the moon would be a crescent within the 10 day period because it takes about 28 days for the moon to go through the different stages.

While walking past a construction site, a person notices a pipe sticking out of a second floor window with water pouring out. As

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Its diameter increases as it flows down from the pipe. Assuming laminar flow for the water, then Bernoulli's equation can be applied.

P1-P2 + (rho)g(h1 - h2) + 1/2(rho)(v1² - v2²) = 0

Explanation:

P1 = P2 = atmospheric pressure so, P1 - P2 = 0

h1 is greater than h2 so h1-h2 is positive. Rearranging the equation above 2{ (rho)g(h1-h2) + 1/2(rho)v1²}/rho = v2²

From the continuity equation for fluids

A1v1 = A2v2

v2 = A1v1/A2

Substituting into the equation above

(A1v1/A2)² = 2{ (rho)g(h1-h2) + 1/2(rho)v1²}/rho

Making A2² the subject of the formula,

A2² = (A1v1)²× rho/(2{ (rho)g(h1-h2) + 1/2(rho)v1²}

The denominator will be greater than the numerator and as a result the diameter of the flowing stream decreases.

Thank you for reading.
