Answer:

The Earth's magnetic field intensity is roughly between 25,000 - 65,000 nT (.25 -.65 gauss).

Explanation:

<em>To measure the Earth's magnetism in any place, we must measure the direction and intensity of the field. The Earth's magnetic field is described by seven parameters. These are declination (D), inclination (I), horizontal intensity (H), the north (X), and east (Y) components of the horizontal intensity, vertical intensity (Z), and total intensity (F). The parameters describing the direction of the magnetic field are declination (D) and inclination (I). D and I are measured in units of degrees, positive east for D and positive down for me. The intensity of the total field (F) is described by the horizontal component (H), vertical component (Z), and the north (X) and east (Y) components of the horizontal intensity. These components may be measured in units of gauss but are generally reported in nanoTesla (1nT * 100,000 = 1 gauss). </em><em>The Earth's magnetic field intensity is roughly between 25,000 - 65,000 nT (.25 - .65 gauss). </em><em>Magnetic declination is the angle between magnetic north and true north. D is considered positive when the angle measured is east of true north and negative when west.  The magnetic inclination is the angle between the horizontal plane and the total field vector, measured positive into Earth. In older literature, the term “magnetic elements” is often referred to as D, I, and H.</em>

❖ The correct answer choice is B) is multicellular. When something is multicellular, it consists of two or more cells. When something is unicellular, it consists of only one cell and in this case we have 5 million red blood cells so that wouldn't make sense.

Two parallel plates are 1 cm apart and are connected to a 500 V source. What force will be exerted on a single electron half way
VladimirAG [237]

Answer: 8*10^-15 N

Explanation: In order to calculate the force applied on an electron in the middle of the two planes at 500 V we know that,  F=q*E

The electric field between  the plates is given by:

E = ΔV/d = 500 V/0.01 m=5*10^3 N/C

the force applied to the electron is: F=e*E=8*10^-15 N

Two disks of polaroid are aligned so that they polarize light in the same plane. Calculate the angle through which one sheet nee
Olegator [25]

Answer: The unpolarized light's intensity is reduced by the factor of two when it passes through the polaroid and becomes linearly polarized in the plane of the Polaroid. When the polarized light passes through the polaroid with the plane of polarization at an angle \theta with respect to the polarization plane of the incoming light, the light's intensity is reduced by the factor of \cos^2\theta (this is the Law of Malus).

Explanation: Let us say we have a beam of unpolarized light of intensity I_0 that passes through two parallel Polaroid discs with the angle of \theta between their planes of polarization. We are asked to find \theta such that the intensity of the outgoing beam is I_2. To solve this we follow the steps below:

Step 1. It is known that when the unpolarized light passes through a polaroid its intensity is reduced by the factor of two, meaning that the intensity of the beam passing through the first polaroid is

I_1=\frac{I_0}{2}.

This beam also becomes polarized in the plane of the first polaroid.

Step 2. Now the polarized beam hits the surface of the second polaroid whose polarization plane is at an angle \theta with respect to the plane of the polarization of the beam. After passing through the polaroid, the beam remains polarized but in the plane of the second polaroid and its intensity is reduced, according to the Law of Malus, by the factor of \cos^2\theta. This yields I_2=I_1\cos^2\theta. Substituting from the previous step we get

I_2=\frac{I_0}{2}\cos^2\theta

yielding

\frac{2I_2}{I_0}=\cos^2\theta

and finally,

\theta=\arccos\sqrt{\frac{2I_2}{I_0}}
