Answer:

The gravity is roughly the same. The inverse square law applies to gravity and that means that being 60 miles above Earth is about the same as being on Earth. The thing is, they are going really fast in an orbit and thus falling around the Earth. The weightlessness comes from a sort of cancellation of gravity pulling them down and their going perpendicular to that force. The forces are cancelling and making them relatively “weightless”. It’s not really weightlessness but just an equilibrium reached between the two accelerations of gravity and their motion against the pull of the Earth.

What two motions combine to produce an orbit?

Ivenika [448]

I'm pretty sure it's Inertia and Gravity

Inertia deals with an object's tendency to stay in motion at a constant speed.

Hopefully this helped and good luck.

Unpolarized light with intensity I0I0I_0 is incident on an ideal polarizing filter. The emerging light strikes a second ideal po

zvonat [6]

Answer:

$0.293I_0$

Explanation:

When the unpolarized light passes through the first polarizer, only the component of the light parallel to the axis of the polarizer passes through.

Therefore, after the first polarizer, the intensity of light passing through it is halved, so the intensity after the first polarizer is:

$I_1=\frac{I_0}{2}$

Then, the light passes through the second polarizer. In this case, the intensity of the light passing through the 2nd polarizer is given by Malus' law:

$I_2=I_1 cos^2 \theta$

where

$\theta$ is the angle between the axes of the two polarizer

Here we have

$\theta=40^{\circ}$

So the intensity after the 2nd polarizer is

$I_2=I_1 (cos 40^{\circ})^2=0.587I_1$

And substituting the expression for I1, we find:

$I_2=0.587 (\frac{I_0}{2})=0.293I_0$

What is a homopolar motor?????)

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

A homopolar motor is a direct current electric motor with two magnetic poles, the conductors of which always cut unidirectional lines of magnetic flux by rotating a conductor around a fixed axis so that the conductor is at right angles to a static magnetic field.
