Answer:

a)    I= I₀ (cos²θ - cos⁴θ)    b) 75.5º

Explanation:

a) For this exercise we must use Malus's law

         I = I₀ cos² θ

where tea is the angle between the two polarizers.

We apply this expression to our case

* Polarizer 1 suppose that it is vertical and polarizer 2 (intermediate) is at an angle θ with respect to the vertical

         I₁ = I₀ cos² θ

* We analyze for the polarity 2 and the last polarizer 3 which indicate that it must be at 90º from the first one, therefore it must be horizontal.

The angle of polarizers 2 and 3 is θ' measured from the horizontal, if we measure with respect to the vertical

              θ₂ = 90- θ’ = θ

fiate that in the exercise we must take a reference system and measure everything with respect to this system.

          I = I₁ cos² θ'

       

we substitute

         I = (I₀ cos² tea) cos² (θ - 90)

        cos (θ -90) = cos θ cos 90 + sin θ sin 90 = sin θ

         I = Io cos² θ sin² θ

        1= cos²θ+ sin²θ

       sin²θ = 1 - cos²θ

        I= I₀ (cos²θ - cos⁴θ)

b) to find when the intensity is maximum,

we can use that we have an extreme point when the drift is zero

          \frac{dI}{d \theta} = 0

          \frac{dI}{d \theta}= Io (2 cos θ - 4 cos³θ) = 0

whereby

            cos θ - 2 cos³ θ = 0

            cos θ ( 1 - 2 cos² θ) = 0  

The zeros of this function are in

           θ = 90º

           1-2cos²θ =0       cos θ = 0.25  θ =  75.5º

Let's analyze this two results for the angle of 90º the intnesidd is zero with respect to the first polarizer, so it is not an acceptable solution.

Consequently, the angle that allows the maximum intensity to pass is 75.5º

Tin shear have longer handles than than the scissor used to cut cloth give reason​
natka813 [3]

Answer:

For scissor, small movement at effort(at handle) should make long movement of load arm , so that it can cut longer lengths of cloth/paper. Hence blades are longer than handle.so its handle(load arm) is made longer than its blades.

Electron spin: Radio astronomers can detect clouds of hydrogen too cool to radiate optical wavelengths of light by means of the
Ivan

Answer:

the magnetic field experienced by the electron is 0.0511 T

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Wavelength λ = 21 cm = 0.21 m

we know that Bohr magneton μ_B is 9.27 × 10⁻²⁴ J/T

Plank's constant h is 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ J.s

speed of light c = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

protein spin causes magnetic field in hydrogen atom.

so

Initial potential energy = -μ_BB × cos0°

= -μ_BB × 1

= -μ_BB

Final potential energy = -μ_BB × cos180°

= -μ_BB × -1

= μ_BB

so change in energy will be;

ΔE = μ_BB - ( -μ_BB )

ΔE = 2μ_BB

now, difference in energy levels will be;

ΔE = hc/λ

2μ_BB = hc/λ

2μ_BBλ = hc

B = hc /  2μ_Bλ

so we substitute

B = [(6.626 × 10⁻³⁴) × (3 × 10⁸)]  /  [2(9.27 × 10⁻²⁴) × 0.21 ]

B = [ 1.9878 × 10⁻²⁵ ]  /  [ 3.8934 × 10⁻²⁴ ]

B = 510556326.09

B = 0.0511 T

Therefore, the magnetic field experienced by the electron is 0.0511 T

How do the tension of the cord and the force of gravity affect a pendulum
azamat

The time period of the pendulum is affected by the acceleration due to gravity. The tension does not have any effect on the time period of the pendulum and also the mass of the bob does not effect the time period of the pendulum.

T = 2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}

Hence, if the gravity increases then the time period of the pendulum will decreases and it will swing faster.

Light takes 8 minutes to reach the Earth, and the speed of light is 3.0×10^8 m/s. a) What is the orbital speed of the Earth arou
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

(a) 28690 m/s (b) 2.46x10^{33}J

Explanation:

The orbital speed is define as:

v = \frac{2 \pi r}{T}   (1)

Where r is the radius of the trajectory and T is the orbital period.

To determine the orbital speed of the Earth it is necessary to know the orbital period and the radius of the trajectory. That can be done by means of the Kepler's third law and average velocity equation.

The average velocity in a Uniform Rectilinear Motion is defined as:

v = \frac{d}{t}   (2)

Where v is the velocity, d is the covered distance and t is the time.

Equation 2 can be rewritten for d to get:

d = vt   (3)

In this case, v will be the speed of light and t, the 8 minutes that takes to reach the Earth.

The time will be converted to seconds so the units in equation 3 can match:

8min . \frac{60s}{1min} ⇒  480s

t = 480s

Replacing all those values in equation 3 it is gotten:

d = (3.0x10^{8}m/s)(480s)

d = 1.44x10^{11}m

Kepler’s third law is defined as:

T^{2} = r^{3}

Where T is orbital period and r is the radius of the trajectory.

T = \sqrt{r^{3}}

T = \sqrt{(1.44x10^{11}m)^{3}}

It is necessary to pass from meters to astronomical unit (AU), 1 AU is defined as the distance between the Earth and the Sun.

T = \sqrt{1AU}

T = 1AU

That can be expressed in units of years.

T = 1AU . \frac{1year}{1AU}

T = 1year

But there are 31536000 seconds in one year:

T = 1year . \frac{31536000s}{1year}

T = 31536000s

Finally, equation  1 can be used:

v = \frac{2 \pi (1.44x10^{11}m)}{(31536000s)}

v = 28690 m/s

<u>So Earth orbital speed around the Sun is 28690 m/s.</u>

<em>b) What is its kinetic energy?</em>

The kinetic energy is defined as:

E = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}  (4)

Notice that it is necessary to found the mass of the Earth, that can be done combining the Universal law of gravity and Newton's second law:

F = \frac{GMm}{r^{2}}

ma = \frac{GMm}{r^{2}}  (5)

M will be isolated in equation 5:

M = \frac{r^{2}a}{G}

Where r is the radius of the Earth (6.38x10^{6}m)

M = \frac{(6.38x10^{6}m)^{2}(9.8m/s^{2})}{6.67x10^{-11}kg.m/s^{2}.m^{2}/Kg^{2}})

M = 5.98x10^{24} Kg

E = \frac{1}{2}( 5.98x10^{24} Kg))(28.690m/s)^{2}

E = 2.46x10^{33}Kg.m^{2}/s^{2}

E = 2.46x10^{33}J

<u>Hence, the kinetic energy of Earth is 2.46x10^{33}J.</u>

Help me plzzz?? I need help it on the picture
madam [21]

No. 
The acceleration of gravity on or near Earth's surface is 9.8 m/s² ,
not 20 m/s² .

If it were 20 m/s², then you would weigh almost exactly double
what you really weigh now.
