Three polarizing filters are stacked, with the polarizing axis ofthe second and third filters at angles of 22.2^\circ and 68.0^\

circ, respectively, to that of thefirst. If unpolarized light is incident on the stack, the light hasan intensity of 75.5 W/cm^2 after it passes through thestack.
a) If the incident intensity is kept constant, what is theintensity of the light after it has passed through the stack if thesecond polarizer is removed?

Answer:

I₂ = 25.4 W

Explanation:

Polarization problems can be solved with the malus law

     I = I₀ cos² θ

Let's apply this formula to find the intendant intensity (Gone)

Second and third polarizer, at an angle between them is

    θ₂ = 68.0-22.2 = 45.8º

    I = I₂ cos² θ₂

    I₂ = I / cos₂ θ₂

    I₂ = 75.5 / cos² 45.8

    I₂ = 155.3 W

We repeat for First and second polarizer

   I₂ = I₁ cos² θ₁

   I₁ = I₂ / cos² θ₁

   I₁ = 155.3 / cos² 22.2

   I₁ = 181.2 W

Now we analyze the first polarizer with the incident light is not polarized only half of the light for the first polarized

    I₁ = I₀ / 2

   I₀ = 2 I₁

   I₀ = 2 181.2

   I₀ = 362.4 W

Now we remove the second polarizer the intensity that reaches the third polarizer is

    I₁ = 181.2 W

The intensity at the exit is

    I₂ = I₁ cos² θ₂

    I₂ = 181.2 cos² 68.0

   I₂ = 25.4 W

At the same temperature, two wires made of pure copper have different resistances. The same voltage is applied at the ends of ea
Semmy [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

As we know that the resistance of the wire is directly proportional to the length of wire and inversely proportional to the area of crossection of the wire.

As the material is copper for both the wires so the resistivity is same and the voltage is also same. As their resistance is different it means either length is different or the area of crossection is different.
