Answer:

The intensity of laser 2 is 4 times of the intensity of laser 1.

Explanation:

The intensity in terms of electric field is given by :

U=\dfrac{1}{2}\epsilon_o E^2

E is electric field

It means, U\propto E^2

In this problem, lasers 1 and 2 emit light of the same color, and the electric field in the beam of laser 1 is twice as strong as the e-field of laser 2.

Let E is electric field in the beam of laser 1 and E' is the electric field in the beam of laser 2. So,

\dfrac{U}{U'}=(\dfrac{E}{E'})^2

We have,

E'=2E

So,

\dfrac{U}{U'}=\dfrac{E^2}{(2E)^2}\\\\\dfrac{U}{U'}=\dfrac{E^2}{4E^2}\\\\\dfrac{U}{U'}=\dfrac{1}{4}\\\\U'=4\times U

So, the intensity of laser 2 is 4 times of the intensity of laser 1.

Answer:

Physical science is the study of the inorganic world. That is, it does not study living things. (Those are studied in biological, or life, science.) The four main branches of physical science are astronomy, physics, chemistry, and the Earth sciences, which include meteorology and geology.

A common carnival ride, called a gravitron, is a large r = 11 m cylinder in which people stand against the outer wall. the cylin
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The minimum speed is 14.53 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

r = 11 m

Friction coefficient = 0.51

Suppose we need to find the minimum speed, that the cylinder must make a person move at to ensure they will stick to the wall

When frictional force becomes equal to or greater than the weight of person

Then, he sticks to the wall

We need to calculate the minimum speed

Using formula for speed

f_{s}=\mu N\geq mg

Where, N =\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

\mu\times\dfrac{mv^2}{r}\gep mg

v^2\geq\dfrac{gr}{\mu}

Put the value into the formula

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{9.8\times11}{0.51}}

v=14.53\ m/s

Hence, The minimum speed is 14.53 m/s.

A dense metal sphere is dropped from a 10-meter tower, and at the exact same time an identical metal sphere is thrown horizontal
givi [52]

Answer:

A. Both spheres land at the same time.

Explanation:

The horizontal motion doesn't affect the vertical motion.  Since the two spheres have the same initial vertical velocity and same initial height, they land at the same time.

he electronics supply company where you work has two different resistors, R1 and R2, in its inventory, and you must measure the
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

R₁ = 50.77 Ω

Explanation:

Since, we know that:

Electric Power = P = VI

but from Ohm's Law:

V = IR

(or) I = V/R

Therefore,

P = V²/R

(OR) R = V²/P

where,

V = Battery Voltage

R = Resistance of combination

FOR SERIES COMBINATION:

R = Rs = (57 V)²/48 W

Rs = 67.69 Ω

but, we know that:

Rs = R₁ + R₂

R₁ + R₂ = 67.69 Ω

R₁ = 67.69 Ω - R₂  __________ eqn (1)

FOR PARALLEL COMBINATION:

R = Rp = (57 V)²/256 W

Rp = 12.69 Ω

but, we know that:

Rp = (R₁R₂)/(R₁ + R₂) = 12.69 Ω

using eqn (1) and value of R₁ + R₂, we get

Rp = 12.69  = R₂(67.69 - R₂)/67.69

859.08 = 67.69 R₂ - R₂²

R₂² - 67.69 R₂ + 859.08 = 0

Solving this quadratic equation we get the answers:

Either, R₂ = 50.76 Ω

Either, R₂ = 16.92 Ω

Since, it is stated in the question that R₁ > R₂. Therefore, we choose the second value. So,

<u>R₂ = 16.92 Ω</u>

using this value in eqn (1), we get:

R₁ = 67.69 Ω - 16.92 Ω

<u>R₁ = 50.77 Ω</u>
