Unpolarized light with intensity 300 W/m^2 passes first through a polarizing filter with its axis vertical, then through a secon

d polarizing filter. It emerges from the second filter with intensity 121 W/m^2. What is the angle from vertical of the axis of the second polarizing filter?

Answer:

The angle from vertical of the axis of the second polarizing filter is 50.57⁰.

Explanation:

Given;

intensity of the unpolarized light, I₀ = 300 W/m²

intensity of emergent polarized light, I = 121 W/m²

let the angle from vertical of the axis of the second polarizing filter = θ

Apply Malus's law, intensity of emergent polarized light is given as;

I = I₀Cos²θ

Cos^2 \theta = \frac{I}{I_o} \\\\Cos^2 \theta =\frac{121}{300} \\\\Cos^2 \theta =0.4033\\\\Cos \theta = \sqrt{0.4033} \\\\Cos \theta = 0.6351\\\\\theta  = Cos^{-1} (0.6351)\\\\\theta  = 50.57 ^0

Therefore, the angle from vertical of the axis of the second polarizing filter is 50.57⁰.

Monochromatic light of a given wavelength is incident on a metal surface. However, no photoelectrons are emitted. If electrons a
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Light of a shorter wavelength should be used.

Explanation:

This is studied in the phenomenon called photoelectric effect, in which light is able to release electrons from a metal, said electrons are called photoelectrons .

The experiments that have been carried out show that <u>increasing  or decreasing the intensity of the light will not cause the photoelectrons to be emitted</u>, what will cause the photoelectrons to be emitted is to increase the frequency of the incident light.

And a higher frequency corresponds to a shorter wavelength according to the equation:

f=\frac{c}{\lambda}

(where f is frequency, c the speed of light, and \lambda the wavelength)

So the answer is that the wavelength of the light must be shortened to cause the emission of electrones.

A 10-turn coil of wire having a diameter of 1.0 cm and a resistance of 0.50 Ω is in a 1.0 mT magnetic field, with the coil orien
n200080 [17]

Answer:

The voltage across the capacitor is 1.57 V.

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of turns = 10

Diameter = 1.0 cm

Resistance = 0.50 Ω

Capacitor = 1.0μ F

Magnetic field = 1.0 mT

We need to calculate the flux

Using formula of flux

\phi=NBA

Put the value into the formula

\phi=10\times1.0\times10^{-3}\times\pi\times(0.5\times10^{-2})^2

\phi=7.85\times10^{-7}\ Tm^2

We need to calculate the induced emf

Using formula of induced emf

\epsilon=\dfrac{d\phi}{dt}

Put the value into the formula

\epsilon=\dfrac{7.85\times10^{-7}}{dt}

Put the value of emf from ohm's law

\epsilon =IR

IR=\dfrac{7.85\times10^{-7}}{dt}

Idt=\dfrac{7.85\times10^{-7}}{R}

Idt=\dfrac{7.85\times10^{-7}}{0.50}

Idt=0.00000157=1.57\times10^{-6}\ C

We know that,

Idt=dq

dq=1.57\times10^{-6}\ C

We need to calculate the voltage across the capacitor

Using formula of charge

dq=C dV

dV=\dfrac{dq}{C}

Put the value into the formula

dV=\dfrac{1.57\times10^{-6}}{1.0\times10^{-6}}

dV=1.57\ V

Hence, The voltage across the capacitor is 1.57 V.

When a tuning fork vibrates over an open pipe and the air in the pipe starts to vibrate, the vibrations in the tube are caused b
defon

Answer:

correct option is A. Resonance

Explanation:

solution

vibrations in the tube are caused by the Resonance because Resonance cause of sounds production in the musical instrument

As if resonance ( hollow cylindrical tube) immerse in  cylinder of water and force in to vibration by tuning fork

As tines of tuning fork vibrate at natural frequency and it create sound wave that impinged up on opening of resonance tube

so correct option is A. Resonance

A mass is undergoing simple harmonic motion. When its displacement is 0, it is at its equilibrium position. At that moment, its
likoan [24]

Answer:

When X = 0

Speed = maximum    V (max) = ω A

Acceleration = zero       a(max) = - ω^2 A

From x = A sin ω t        sin = 0     so displacement = zero

V = ω A cos ω t             cos = 1 and speed = maximum

a = - A ω^2 sin ω t            sin = 0 and acceleration = zero

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Just as motion in two dimensions introduced vectors, forces in two dimensions also involve more involved issues.
