Light.

Light is faster than sound . Because light doesn't need a medium to travel. The speed of sound through air is about 340 meters per second. It's faster through water and its even faster, through steel.

At what angle should the axes of two polaroids be placed so as to reduce the intensity of the incident unpolarized light to 13.
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

θ = 66.90°

Explanation:

we know that

I= \frac{I_0}{2}cos^2\theta

I= intensity of polarized light =1

I_o= intensity of unpolarized light = 13

putting vales we get

1= \frac{13}{2}cos^2\theta

⇒\theta=cos^{-1} \sqrt{\frac{1}{6.5} }

therefore θ = 66.90°

What is Snell's Law?​
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

law stating that the ratio of the sines of the angles of incidence and refraction of a wave are constant when it passes between two given media.

Snell's law, in optics, a relationship between the path taken by a ray of light in crossing the boundary or surface of separation between two contacting substances and the refractive index of each. ... Snell's law asserts that n1/n2 = sin α2/sin α1.
