Unpolarized light is incident upon two ideal polarizing filters that do not have their transmission axes aligned. If 19% of the
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

51.94°

Explanation:

I_0 = Unpolarized light

I_2 = Light after passing though second filter = 0.19I_0

Polarized light passing through first filter

I_1=\frac{I_0}{2}

Polarized light passing through second filter

I_2=\frac{I_0}{2}cos^2\theta\\\Rightarrow 0.19I_0=\frac{I_0}{2}cos^2\theta\\\Rightarrow cos^2\theta=\frac{0.19I_0}{\frac{I_0}{2}}\\\Rightarrow cos\theta=\sqrt{\frac{0.19I_0}{\frac{I_0}{2}}}\\\Rightarrow \theta=cos^{-1}\sqrt{\frac{0.19I_0}{\frac{I_0}{2}}}\\\Rightarrow \theta=cos^{-1}\sqrt{0.19\times 2}\\\Rightarrow \theta=cos^{-1}\sqrt{0.38}\\\Rightarrow \theta=51.94^{\circ}

The angle between the two filters is 51.94°

What is the magnitude of an electric field that balances the weight of a plastic sphere of mass 2.1 g that has been charged to -
Liula [17]

Answer:

Electric field, E=6.86\times 10^6\ N/C

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of sphere, m = 2.1 g = 0.0021 kg

Charge, q=-3\ nC=-3\times 10^{-9}\ C

We need to find the magnitude of electric field that balances the weight of a plastic spheres. So,

ma=qE

a = g

E=\dfrac{mg}{q}

E=\dfrac{0.0021\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2}{-3\times 10^{-9}\ C}

E=6860000\ N/C

or

E=6.86\times 10^6\ N/C

Hence, the magnitude of electric field that balances its weight is 6.86\times 10^6\ N/C. Hence, this is the required solution.
