Answer:

 v = 1.078 10⁴ m / s

Explanation:

To solve this exercise we can use conservation of mechanical energy

Starting point. Just clearing

          Em₀ = K + U = ½ m v² - G m M / R_{e}

Final point. At r = 14R_{e}

        Em_{f} = U = -G m M / 14R_{e}

how energy is conserved

         Em₀ = Em_{f}

         ½ m v² - G m M /R_{e} = -G m M / 14R_{e}

        ½ v² = G M / R_{e} (-1/14 + 1)

        v² = 2 G M / R_{e} 13/14

we calculate

       v² = 2 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 5.98 10²⁴ / 6.37 10⁶ 13/14

       v = √ (1,16 10⁸)

       v = 1.078 10⁴ m / s

On earth, 1 kg = 9.8 = 2.2 lbs. On the moon, 1 kg = 1.6 n = 0.37 lbs.
Kruka [31]
They're never 'equal'. 1 kilogram is 1 kilogram everywhere. It weighs about 2.2 pounds on Earth, and it weighs about 0.37 pound on the moon. On the way between, if the rocket engines are not burning, it weighs nothing.

Polarized light passes through a polarizer. If the electric vector of the polarized light is horizontal what, in terms of the in
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

The intensity of the light that passes through a polarizer is 0.55I₀.

Explanation:

The intensity of the light that passes through a polarizer can be found using Malus's law:  

I = I_{0}cos^{2}(\theta)

<u>Where</u>:

I: is the intensity of the light that passes through a polarizer

I₀: is the initial intensity

θ:  is the angle between the light's initial polarization direction and the axis of the polarizer = 42°  

I = I_{0}cos^{2}(\theta) = I_{0}cos^{2}(42) = 0.55*I_{0}

Therefore, the intensity of the light that passes through a polarizer is 0.55I₀.

I hope it helps you!
