FALSE!

Nonmetals include common gasses that are found in the atmosphere, such as nitrogen and oxygen, as well as sulfur (S) and carbon too. <em>Nonmetals are usually not good conductors of heat and electricity.</em>

scoundrel [369]

<em>Alpha radiation:</em>  Particles.  Each alpha particle is a little bundle of 2 protons and 2 neutrons ... identical to the nucleus of a Helium atom.

Charge  . . . +2 elementary charges

Mass  . . . 4 Atomic Mass Units

Relative penetrating power  . . . low

The effect an electric field would have on it . . . Since the alpha particle has a positive charge, it's repelled by other positive charges, and attracted toward negative charges.

<em>Beta radiation</em>:  Particles.  Each beta particle is an electron.

Charge  . . . -1 elementary charge

Mass  . . . 0.00055 AMU

Relative penetrating power  . . . medium

The effect an electric field would have on it . . .  repelled by other negative charges, and attracted toward positive charges.

<em>Gamma radiation</em>:  electromagnetic wave, verrrrry short wave, high frequency

Charge . . . electromagnetic wave, no charge

Mass  . . . electromagnetic wave, no mass

Relative penetrating power  . . . high

The effect an electric field would have on it . . . electromagnetic wave, no effect

Can an object in motion ever change directions?
choli [55]

Answer:

Forces affect how objects move. They may cause motion; they may also slow, stop, or change the direction of motion of an object that is already moving. Since force cause changes in the speed or direction of an object, we can say that forces cause changes in velocity.

Unpolarized light with an average intensity of 845 W/m2 enters a polarizer with a vertical transmission axis. The transmitted li
RideAnS [48]

The concept to develop this problem is the Law of Malus. Which describes what happens with the light intensity once it passes through a polarized material.

Mathematically this can be expressed as

I = I_0 cos^2\theta

Where

I = New intensity after pass through the Polarizer

I_0= Original intensity

\theta = Indicates the angle between the axis of the analyzer and the polarization axis of the incident light.

When the light passes perpendicularly through the first polarizer, the light intensity is reduced by half which will cause the intensity to be 225W / m ^ 2 at the output of the new polarizer, mathematically:

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

225 = \frac{845}{2}cos^2\theta

Solving to find the angle we have

\theta = 43.11\°

The orientation angle of the second polarizer relative to the first one is 43.11°
