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.

What is the best explanation for the observation that the electric charge on the stem became positive as the charged bee approac
topjm [15]

Answer:

Option B seems to be the appropriate choice,

Explanation:

The given question is incomplete. Please find the attachment of the complete question.

  • From either the principle or law of the Coulombs, there would have been either pressure (force) through attachment or repulsion amongst charges.  
  • It is evident from the analysis presented that perhaps the bee becomes positively (+) charged and would have been drawn either by negatively (-) charged roots of the plants or stem.    

As a consequence, the vegetation is electric current polarized because as activated bee pursued.

A student walks 350 m [S], then 400 m [E20°N], and finally 550 m [N10°W]. Using the component method, find the resultant (total)
levacccp [35]

In component form, the displacement vectors become

• 350 m [S]   ==>   (0, -350) m

• 400 m [E 20° N]   ==>   (400 cos(20°), 400 sin(20°)) m

(which I interpret to mean 20° north of east]

• 550 m [N 10° W]   ==>   (550 cos(100°), 550 sin(100°)) m

Then the student's total displacement is the sum of these:

(0 + 400 cos(20°) + 550 cos(100°), -350 + 400 sin(20°) + 550 sin(100°)) m

≈ (280.371, 328.452) m

which leaves the student a distance of about 431.8 m from their starting point in a direction of around arctan(328.452/280.371) ≈ 50° from the horizontal, i.e. approximately 431.8 m [E 50° N].

What is the direction of the normal contact force of the road on the wheels?
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

The direction of the contact forces acting on a body is not necessarily perpendicular to the contact surface. The resolution of contact forces in two components i.e. perpendicular to contact surface and along surface. Perpendicular component is normal force and parallel component is friction.

What are the characteristics of a blackbody radiator? Give an example.
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

A blackbody, or Planckian radiator, is a cavity within a heated material from which heat cannot escape. No matter what the material, the walls of the cavity exhibit a characteristic spectral emission, which is a function of its temperature.

Example:

Emission from a blackbody is temperature dependent and at high temperature, a blackbody will emit a spectrum of photon energies that span the visible range, and therefore it will appear white. The Sun is an example of a high-temperature blackbody.

You are an engineer in charge of designing a new generation of elevators for a prospective upgrade to the Empire State Building.
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

   t_total = 23.757 s

Explanation:

This is a kinematics exercise.

Let's start by calculating the distance and has to reach the limit speed of

v = 18.8 m / s

         v = v₀ + a t₁

the elevator starts with zero speed

         v = a t₁

         t₁ = v / a

         t₁ = 18.8 / 2.40

         t₁ = 7.833 s

in this time he runs

         y₁ = v₀ t₁ + ½ a t₁²

         y₁ = ½ a t₁²

         y₁ = ½ 2.40 7.833²

         y₁ = 73.627 m

This is the time and distance traveled until reaching the maximum speed, which will be constant throughout the rest of the trip.

           x_total = x₁ + x₂

           x₂ = x_total - x₁

           x₂ = 373 - 73,627

           x₂ = 299.373 m

this distance travels at constant speed,

           v = x₂ / t₂

           t₂ = x₂ / v

           t₂ = 299.373 / 18.8

           t₂ = 15.92 s

therefore the total travel time is

           t_total = t₁ + t₂

           t_total = 7.833 + 15.92

           t_total = 23.757 s
