Sunlight is reflected off of a puddle of water ahead of a driver. The index of refraction of the water is 1.333. If a driver sit

s 1.5 m above the ground, at what distance from the driver will polarized sunglasses be most effective at blocking the reflected light from the puddle. Hint: What angle does light become maximally polarized? 5. A. 1.1m B. 3.0m C. 2.0 m D. 0.75 m E. 2.5m

Answer:

option C is correct

distance from the driver is 2 m

Explanation:

Given data

index of refraction of the water n = 1.333

driver height from ground=  1.5 m

to find out

What angle does light become maximally polarized and what distance from the driver will polarized

solution

we know that n1 for water = 1.33 and we know for air n2 = 1

so  tan(θ)  = n1 / n2

tan(θ)  = 1.33 / 1

so (θ) = 53.06 degree

so for distance d will be calculate as

tan ( 90 - (θ) ) = height / distance

tan ( 90 - 53.06 ) = 1.5 / distance

distance = 1.5 / 0.7519

distance = 1.994 m  = 2 m

so option C is correct

distance from the driver is 2 m

<span> y=y0 + vt +1/2gt^2
(solve for t here) cause you know y,y0,v,g
you will do quad formula here

then:
v=v0 +at solve for v
(remember the direction of the ball too (signs))

The main thing to remember here is that when the ball passes exactly (height) where it was launched it will travel the speed at which it was launched. *its almost like the ball was thrown in the downward direction. </span>

A race car has a centriple acceleration of 15.625 m/s as it goes around a curve if the curve is a circle with radius 40 m what’s
Elanso [62]

Answer:

25 m/s

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration is the square of the tangential velocity divided by the radius.

a = v² / r

15.625 m/s² = v² / (40 m)

v² = 625 m²/s²

v = 25 m/s

The speed of the car is 25 m/s.

A trumpeter is placed on a moving sidewalk that moves at a constant velocity of 4.5 m/s. A listener is standing 6.0 m in front o
swat32
You didn't actually include the speed of sound. But it doesn't matter for this question. If the trumpeter and the listener are on the same moving sidewalk then the distance between them is not changing. The Doppler shift only happens when the distance between the source and the Observer is changing. So the Listener hears the same 290 Hertz that the trumpeter is generating.
