This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Unpolarized light passes through two Polaroid sheets. The transmission axis of the second polarizing filter makes an angle of 34° with the axis of the first polarizer. What fraction of the original unpolarized light is transmitted through the second polarizing filter?

Answer: the fraction of the original unpolarized light transmitted through the second polarizing filter is 0.343

Explanation:

We know that when Unpolarized light passes through first polarizer, it's intensity will be reduced to half  i.e

I1 = I0/2

Now after that when light passes through 2nd polarizer, Intensity will be;

I2 = I1 × (cos A1)²  

but  I1 = I0/2

so

I2 = (I0/2) × (cos A1)²

I2/I0 = 0.5 × (cos A1)²

In the question we were given that; The transmission axis of the second polarizing filter makes an angle of 34° with the axis of the first polarizer

so A = 34°

so we substitute

I2/I0 = 0.5 × (cos 34)²

I2/I0 = 0.343

Therefore the fraction of the original unpolarized light transmitted through the second polarizing filter is 0.343

Foods that allow microorganisms to grow are called parasites. true or false
Bas_tet [7]
<span>False. Foods that are improperly stored become what is known as a growth medium for microorganisms. These foods can be dangerous to humans and animals, and while they may cause an internal parasite to be able to grow, such as a tape worm, they are not in and of themselves parasites. Parasites are an organism that feeds off of, or is parasitic, and sustains life from another living organism. Such as a flea feeding off the blood of a dog or cat.</span>

The river narrows at a rapids from a width of 12 m to a width of only 5.8 m. The depth of the river before the rapids is 2.7 m;
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

7.89 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

Width of the river, b1 = 12 m

Width of the river, b2 = 5.8 m

Depth of the river, d1 = 2.7 m

Depth of the river, d2 = 0.85 m

Speed of the river, v1 = 1.2 m/s

Speed of the river, v2 = ?

Area of the river before the rapid, a1 = 12 * 2.7 = 32.4 m²

Area of the river after the rapid, a2 = 5.8 * 0.85 = 4.93 m²

To solve this question, we use a relation between the speed of the river and the volume of the river. We say,

Area1 * velocity1 = Area2 * velocity2, and when we substitute the values for each other we have

32.4 * 1.2 = 4.93 * v2

38.88 = 4.93v2

v2 = 38.88 / 4.93

v2 = 7.89 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the river after the rapid is 7.89 m/s

A bike travels 4 miles in half an hour at what speed
Sloan [31]
8 miles per hour
because if it is moving at 4 miles every half hour that means you have to multiply it by two to get it in miles per hour and we all know that 4 times 2 is 8 so it would be 8 miles per hour =)

Choose all of the true statements regarding the relationship between voltage, resistance, and current. Current is measured in am
AveGali [126]

-- <u><em>Current is measured in amps.</em></u>  (You can use any symbol you want to represent current, but the most common one is " I ", not "Δ".)

-- <u><em>The relationship between current, voltage, and resistance is mathematically defined by Ohm's Law. </em></u>

-- <u><em>Current is the flow of electrons through a circuit.</em></u>

-- (Ohm's Law is NOT mathematically represented by the equation V=I/R.)  <u><em>It should be V = I · R</em></u> .  

(When solving for Resistance in a circuit and both voltage and current are known values, the equation I =V*R is not true, and not the way to solve it.)  <u><em>If the resistance is what you're looking for, then the equation to use is  </em></u><u><em>R = V / I</em></u><u><em> .  </em></u>

<em>-- </em><u><em>If the voltage in a circuit is increased, the current will also increase.</em></u>
