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

a) What is the average useful power output of a person who does6.00×10^6Jof useful work in 8.00 h? (b) Working at this rate, how
NARA [144]

Answer:

208.33 W

141.26626 seconds

Explanation:

E = Energy = 6\times 10^6\ J

t = Time taken = 8 h

m = Mass = 2000 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = Height of platform = 1.5 m

Power is obtained when we divide energy by time

P=\frac{E}{t}\\\Rightarrow P=\frac{6\times 10^6}{8\times 60\times 60}\\\Rightarrow P=208.33\ W

The average useful power output of the person is 208.33 W

The energy in the next part would be the potential energy

The time taken would be

t=\frac{E}{P}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{mgh}{208.33}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{2000\times 9.81\times 1.5}{208.33}\\\Rightarrow t=141.26626\ s

The time taken to lift the load is 141.26626 seconds

Increase the accurancy of a scientific experiment
ArbitrLikvidat [17]
The best way to increase the accuracy of a scientific experiment is to have a detailed plan of action for conducting the experiment. You should also repeat the experiment several times to ensure that you get the same result(s) consistently.<span />
