Light waves do not need a medium in which to travel but sound waves do. Explain that unlike sound, light waves travel fastest through a vacuum and air, and slower through other materials such as glass or water.

Imagine you have just witnessed a small avalanche on a mountain while skiing, and two slushy snowballs just crashed together in
inn [45]
We have that the momentum p is given by the formula p=mv where m is the mass and v is the velocity. Since for A p=-14kgm/s and m=7, we have that the velocity is -14/7=-2m/s. Hence its speed is 2 m/s.
For b we have that p=15kgm/s and v=3m/s. Because m=p/v, we have m=3kg.
We also have that the momentum is conserved in this system. Hence, the net sum of the momentum of the 2 snowballs equals the momentum of the single giant ball. Hence, p(total)=p(combined)=-14+15=1kgm/s (momentum is a vector; the positive sign means that it tends to the positive direction).

Two astronauts are playing catch in a zero gravitational field. Astronaut 1 of mass m1 is initially moving to the right with spe
Ede4ka [16]

The final velocity (v_1_f) of the first astronaut will be greater than the <em>final velocity</em> of the second astronaut (v_2_f) to ensure that the total initial momentum of both astronauts is equal to the total final momentum of both astronauts <em>after throwing the ball</em>.

The given parameters;

  • Mass of the first astronaut, = m₁
  • Mass of the second astronaut, = m₂
  • Initial velocity of the first astronaut, = v₁
  • Initial velocity of the second astronaut, = v₂ > v₁
  • Mass of the ball, = m
  • Speed of the ball, = u
  • Final velocity of the first astronaut, = v_f_1
  • Final velocity of the second astronaut, = v_f_2

The final velocity of the first astronaut relative to the second astronaut after throwing the ball is determined by applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum.

m_1v_1 + m_2v_2 = m_2v_2_f + m_1v_1_f

if v₂ > v₁, then v_1_f > v_2_f, to conserve the linear momentum.

Thus, the final velocity (v_1_f) of the first astronaut will be greater than the <em>final velocity</em> of the second astronaut (v_2_f) to ensure that the total initial momentum of both astronauts is equal to the total final momentum of both astronauts after throwing the ball.

The angle between the axes of two polarizing filters is 45.0^\circ45.0 ​∘ ​​ . By how much does the second filter reduce the int
suter [353]

Answer

given,                                                                      

angle between two polarizing filters = 45°

filter reduce intensity = ?                          

a) I = I₀ Cos² θ                                

here θ = 45⁰                                

I = \dfrac{I_0}{2}                      

intensity of the light is reduced by 0.500

correct answer from the given option D

b) direction of the polarization                    

                        θ = 45°
