Unpolarized light of intensity 30 W/cm2 is incident on a linear polarizer set at the polarizing angle θ1 = 22 ∘. The emerging li

ght then passes through a second polarizer that is set at the polarizing angle θ2 = 162 ∘. Note that both polarizing angles are measured from the vertical. What is the intensity of the light that emerges from the second polarizer?

Answer:

I₂ = 8.80 W/cm²

Explanation:

To solve this exercise we need to apply the Malus's law.

First, when the light gors through the first polarizer which is linear, intensity is always cut in half, therefore:

I₁ = I / 2   (1).

Applying this, we have:

I₁ = 30 / 2 = 15 W/cm²

Now, we can calculate the intensity of the light, after it passes through the second polarizer. The Law of Malus states that light intensity will be:

I₂ = I cos²Ф   (2)

Where Ф, is the difference between the angle of the first polarizer and the second. In this way we have:

Ф = α - β

Ф = 162 - 22 = 140°

Now, applying Malus's law we have:

I₂ = 15 cos²140°

<h2>I₂ = 8.80 W/cm²</h2>

Hope this helps

Calculate a pendulum's frequency of oscillation (in Hz) if the pendulum completes one cycle in 0.5 s.
Marina86 [1]
Time taken to complete one oscillation for a pendulum is Time Period, T = 0.5 s 
Frequency of the pendulum oscillation = 1 / Time Period => f = 1 / T = 1 / 0.5  
Frequency f = 2 Hz

You are moving a desk that has a mass of 36 kg; its acceleration is 0.5 m / s 2. What is the force being applied
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

18 N

Explanation:

Force can be found using the following formula.

f= m*a

where m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

We know the desk has a mass of 36 kilograms. We also know that its acceleration is 0.5 m/s^2.

m= 36 kg

a= 0.5 m/s^2

Substitute these values into the formula.

f= 36 kg * 0.5 m/s^2

Multiply 36 and 0.5

f=18 kg m/s^2

1 kg m/s^2 is equivalent to 1 Newton, or N.

f= 18 Newtons

The force being applied is 18 kg m/s^2, Newtons, or N

2. A wire 4.00 m long and 6.00 mm in diameter has a resistance of 15.0 mΩ. A potential difference of 23.0 V is applied between t
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

current in the wire = potential diff / resistance

= 23 / (15 x 10⁻³ )

= 1.533 x 10³ A .

b )

For resistance of a wire , the formula is

R = ρ L / S where ρ is specific resistance , L is length and S is cross sectional area of wire

putting the given values

15 x 10⁻³ = 4ρ / π x .003²

ρ = 106  x 10⁻⁹ ohm. m

= 10.6 x 10⁻⁸ ohm m

The metal wire appears to be platinum .
