Answer:

the transmission axis of polarizing sheet makes an angle of \Theta =26.74^{\circ} with the horizontal        

Explanation:

We have given that intensity of light incident on the sheet I_0=0.970W/m^2

Average intensity of light emerging from a polarizing sheet I=0.775W/m^2

We have to find the angle between transmission axis with the horizontal

Intensity of light polarizing from sheet is equal to I=I_0cos^2\Theta

So 0.775=0.970cos^2\Theta

cos^2\Theta =0.798

cos\Theta =0.893

\Theta =26.74^{\circ}

So the transmission axis of polarizing sheet makes an angle of \Theta =26.74^{\circ} with the horizontal

Two satellites are in circular orbits around the earth. the orbit for satellite a is at a height of 542 km above the earth's sur
Evgen [1.6K]
Let R be radius of Earth with the amount of 6378 km h = height of satellite above Earth m = mass of satellite v = tangential velocity of satellite 
Since gravitational force varies contrariwise with the square of the distance of separation, the value of g at altitude h will be 9.8*{[R/(R+h)]^2} = g' 
So now gravity acceleration is g' and gravity is balanced by centripetal force mv^2/(R+h): 
m*v^2/(R+h) = m*g' v = sqrt[g'*(R + h)] 
Satellite A: h = 542 km so R+h = 6738 km = 6.920 e6 m g' = 9.8*(6378/6920)^2 = 8.32 m/sec^2 so v = sqrt(8.32*6.920e6) = 7587.79 m/s = 7.59 km/sec 
Satellite B: h = 838 km so R+h = 7216 km = 7.216 e6 m g' = 9.8*(6378/7216)^2 = 8.66 m/sec^2 so v = sqrt(8.32*7.216e6) = 7748.36 m/s = 7.79 km/sec

Darcy is going to make raspberry jam for the county fair.
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

She can make have 30 jars with raspberries in them with 50 left over.

Explanation:

1,700 divided by 55

30 equally

but 50 left over

This means that she can make have 30 jars with raspberries in them with 50 left over.

If you wanted to produce more power,what could you do to maximize power
PSYCHO15rus [73]

In physics, power is defined as energy per unit time.  You will also hear it described as work per unit time.  The standard unit of measure for power is the watt, where a watt is defined as joules (energy) per second (time).  This is expressed as a fraction as J/s.  If you wanted to increase the power in any operation, you can either increase the energy (more joules) or reduce the time (fewer seconds).

Energy slowly leaks outward through the diffusion of photons that repeatedly bounce off ions and electrons
stepan [7]

Energy slowly leaks outward through the radiative diffusion of photons that repeatedly bounce off ions and electrons.

<h3>What is radiative diffusion?</h3>

A radiation zone is a layer of a star's core where energy is mostly carried toward the outside by radiative diffusion and thermal conduction rather than convection.

As photons, energy passes through the radiation zone as electromagnetic radiation.

The radiative diffusion of photons that repeatedly bounce off ions and electrons progressively drains energy outward.

Hence,radiative diffusion is correct answer.
