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.

A watermelon is dropped from the top of a 80m tall building. We want to find the velocity of the watermelon after it falls for 1

White raven [17]

Answer:

$v_f = v_i + at$

$v_f = 13.23 m/s$

Explanation:

Height Of the watermelon when it is dropped is given as

$h = 80 m$

time of fall under gravity

$t = 1.35 s$

now if water melon start from rest then we have

$v_i = 0$

acceleration due to gravity for watermelon

$a = 9.81 m/s^2$

now we need to find the final speed of watermelon

$v_f = v_i + at$

so we will have

$v_f = 0 + (9.81)(1.35)$

$v_f = 13.23 m/s$

The Franck-Hertz experiment involved shooting electrons into a low-density gas of mercury atoms and observing discrete amounts o

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

the final kinetic energy is 0.9eV

Explanation:

To find the kinetic energy of the electron just after the collision with hydrogen atoms you take into account that the energy of the electron in the hydrogen atoms are given by the expression:

$E_n=\frac{-13.6eV}{n^2}$

you can assume that the shot electron excites the electron of the hydrogen atom to the first excited state, that is

$E_{n_2-n_1}=-13.6eV[\frac{1}{n_2^2}-\frac{1}{n_1^2}]\\\\E_{2-1}=-13.6eV[\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{1}]=-10.2eV$

-10.2eV is the energy that the shot electron losses in the excitation of the electron of the hydrogen atom. Hence, the final kinetic energy of the shot electron after it has given -10.2eV of its energy is:

$E_{k}=11.1eV-10.2eV=0.9eV$

nordsb [41]

What kind of analogy is this?
A. synonyms
B. part to whole
C. degrees of intensity
D. cause to effect
This is because a synonym refers to things like "normal" or "regular" like your calling someone something.
