Answer:

The angle is 84.26⁰

Explanation:

The angle the axis of a polarizing filter need to make with the direction of polarized light is given by;

I = I₀Cos²θ

where;

I is the intensity of the polarized light transmitted from the polarizer

I₀ is the intensity of the polarized light incident on the polarizer

Given;

I₀ = 1.00 kW/m² = 1000 W/m²

I = 10 W/m²

Cos^2 \theta = \frac{I}{I_o}\\\\Cos \theta = \sqrt{\frac{I}{I_o}}\\\\\theta = Cos^{-1}( \sqrt{\frac{I}{I_o}})\\\\\theta = Cos^{-1}( \sqrt{\frac{10}{1000}})\\\\\theta = 84.26^0

Therefore, the angle is 84.26⁰

Why is a warm, tropical cumulus cloud more likely to produce precipitation than a cold, stratus cloud?
Lelu [443]

Explanation:

Warm,tropical cumulus cloud more likely to produce precipitation because they have high liquid content, strong and consistent updraft, these clouds are very thick. Moreover, they have large range of cloud droplet sizes. Whereas, stratus cloud have somewhat opposite characteristics, hence tropical cumulus clouds produce more precipitate.

A 2kg block has 70J of KE. It then travels 1.5 meters up a hill. As it travels up the hill friction does -12J of work on the blo
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

v = 5.34[m/s]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must use the theorem of work and energy conservation. This theorem tells us that the sum of the mechanical energy in the initial state plus the work on or performed by a body must be equal to the mechanical energy in the final state.

Mechanical energy is defined as the sum of energies, kinetic, potential, and elastic.

E₁ = mechanical energy at initial state [J]

E_{1}=E_{pot}+E_{kin}+E_{elas}\\

In the initial state, we only have kinetic energy, potential energy is not had since the reference point is taken below 1.5[m], and the reference point is taken as potential energy equal to zero.

In the final state, you have kinetic energy and potential since the car has climbed 1.5[m] of the hill. Elastic energy is not available since there are no springs.

E₂ = mechanical energy at final state [J]

E_{2}=E_{kin}+E_{pot}

Now we can use the first statement to get the first equation:

E_{1}+W_{1-2}=E_{2}

where:

W₁₋₂ = work from the state 1 to 2.

E_{k}=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} \\

E_{pot}=m*g*h

where:

h = elevation = 1.5 [m]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

70 - 12 = \frac{1}{2}*2*v^{2}+2*9.81*1.5

58 = v^{2} +29.43\\v^{2} =28.57\\v=\sqrt{28.57}\\v=5.34[m/s]

A skier moving at 4.75 m/s encounters a long, rough, horizontal patch of snow having a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.220
disa [49]
First we need to find the acceleration of the skier on the rough patch of snow.
We are only concerned with the horizontal direction, since the skier is moving in this direction, so we can neglect forces that do not act in this direction. So we have only one horizontal force acting on the skier: the frictional force, \mu m g. For Newton's second law, the resultant of the forces acting on the skier must be equal to ma (mass per acceleration), so we can write:
ma=-\mu m g
Where the negative sign is due to the fact the friction is directed against the motion of the skier.
Simplifying and solving, we find the value of the acceleration:
a=-(0.220)(9.81 m/s^2)=-2.16 m/s^2

Now we can use the following relationship to find the distance covered by the skier before stopping, S:
2aS=v_f^2-v_i^2
where v_f=0 is the final speed of the skier and v_i=4.75 m/s is the initial speed. Substituting numbers, we find:
S=- \frac{v_i^2}{2a}=- \frac{(4.75 m/s)^2}{2(-2.16 m/s^2)}=5.23 m

Verizon [17]
The correct answer among the choices is option D. Density is not one of the properties included in the ideal gas law. The law is expressed as: PV=nRT. As we can see, the pressure, the volume and the temperature of the gas are included in the law.
