8 0

Answer:

5 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

v = 40 m/s

t = 8 s

Find: a

a = (v − v₀) / t

a = (40 m/s − 0 m/s) / 8 s

a = 5 m/s²

At what angle should the axes of two polaroids be placed so as to reduce the intensity of the incident unpolarized light to 13.

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

θ = 66.90°

Explanation:

we know that

$I= \frac{I_0}{2}cos^2\theta$

I= intensity of polarized light =1

I_o= intensity of unpolarized light = 13

putting vales we get

$1= \frac{13}{2}cos^2\theta$

⇒ $\theta=cos^{-1} \sqrt{\frac{1}{6.5} }$

therefore θ = 66.90°
