unpolarized light of intensity Io is incident on an ideal linear polariser (no absorption) . what is the transmitted intensity?​

Physics

amid [387]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

A Polarizing sheet transmits only the component of light polarized along a particular direction and absorbs the component perpendicular to that direction.

Consider a light beam in the z direction incident on a Polaroid which has its transmission axis in the y direction. On the average, half of the incident light has its polarization axis in the y direction and half in the x direction. Thus half the intensity is transmitted,and the transmitted light is linearly polarized in the y direction.

an object is thrown off a cliff with intial pward velocity of 15m/s it strikes the ground with downward velocity of 25 m/s what
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

20 m

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 15 m/s

v = -25 m/s

a = -10 m/s²

Find: Δy

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

(-25 m/s)² = (15 m/s)² + 2 (-10 m/s²) Δy

Δy = 20 m

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process in which green plants use sunlight to make their own food. Photosynthesis requires sunlight, chlorophyll, water, and carbon dioxide gas. It is the process in which the chlorophyll in the leaves of the plant use the sunlight and water to convert the carbon dioxide gas into energy for the plant to use.

A cue ball, moving with 9.0 N·s of momentum strikes the nine-ball at rest. The nine-ball moves off with 2.0 N·s in the original
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

P = 7.28 N.s

Explanation:

given,

initial momentum of cue ball in x- direction,P₁ = 9 N.s

momentum of nine ball in  x-  direction, P₂ = 2 N.s

momentum in perpendicular direction i.e. y - direction,P'₂ = 2 N.s

momentum of the cue after collision = ?

using conservation of momentum

in x- direction

P₁ + p = x  + P₂

p is the initial momentum of the nine balls which is equal to zero.

9 + 0  = x  + 2

x = 7 N.s

momentum in x-direction.

equating along y-direction

P'₁ + p = y + P'₂

0 + 0 = y + 2

y = -2 N.s

the momentum of the cue ball after collision is equal to resultant of the momentum .

P = \sqrt{x^2+y^2}

P = \sqrt{7^2+(-2)^2}

      P = 7.28 N.s

the momentum of the cue ball after collision is equal to P = 7.28 N.s

A person is walking down the street maintain the same speed and direction. The person is accelerating.
balandron [24]

Answer:

no change in speed, therefore the body cannot be accelerated.  a=0

Explanation:

When a person is accelerating his speed must change, if the speed is in the same direction as the acceleration the speed increases and if the acceleration is in the opposite direction to the speed it decreases.

In this case there is no change in speed, therefore the body cannot be accelerated.

A hot-air balloon is rising upward with a constant speed of 2.85 m/s. When the balloon is 2.50 m above the ground, the balloonis
NISA [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

You have to declare which way is plus -- up or down. I will use down.

vi = - 2.85       The balloon is going up. That is the minus direction.

a = 9.81

d =   2.50 meters  distance in this case is from the object to the ground.

d = vi*t + 1/2 a t^2

-2.50 = -2.85*t + 1/2 * 9.81 * t^2

-2.50 = -2.85*t + 4.905 * t^2           transfer the left to the right.

-4.905 t^2 + 2.85*t + 2.50 = 0

Use the quadratic formula to solve for t.

It turns out that t = 1.06
