The <u>average</u> acceleration for an object undergoing this change in velocity is

(12.5 m/s - 8.3 m/s) / (1.24 s) = (4.2 m/s) / (1.24 s) ≈ 3.4 m/s²

Only 35 % of the intensity of a polarized light wave passes through a polarizing filter. What is the angle between the electric
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

The angle between the electric field and the axis of the filter is 54⁰

Explanation:

Apply the equation for intensity of light through a polarizer.

I = I_oCos^2 \theta

where;

I is the intensity of the transmitted light

I₀ is the intensity of the incident light

θ is the incident angle

If only 35 % of the intensity of a polarized light wave passes through a polarizing filter, then the ratio of the intensity of the transmitted light to that of the intensity of the incident light is given by;

\frac{I}{I_o}  = Cos^2 \theta\\\\\frac{35}{100} =  Cos^2 \theta\\\\Cos^2 \theta = 0.35\\\\Cos\theta = \sqrt{0.35} \\\\Cos\theta = 0.5916\\\\\theta = Cos^{-1}(0.5916)\\\\\theta  = 54 ^0

Therefore, the angle between the electric field and the axis of the filter is 54⁰

Two astronauts in space with a baseball decide to play catch to pass the time. In the language of conservation of momentum, desc
Anna35 [415]
As the first astronaut throws the ball, lets assume it goes with v velocity and the mass of the ball be m
the momentum comes out be mv, thus to conserve that momentum the astronaut will move opposite to the direction of the ball's motion with the velocity mv/M (where M is the mass of the astronaut).

A heavy ball with a weight of 150 N is hung from the ceiling of a lecture hall on a 4.1-m-long rope. The ball is pulled to one s
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

The tension in the rope is 262.88 N

Explanation:

Given:

Weight W = 150 N

Length of rope r = 4.1 m

Initial speed of ball v = 5.5 \frac{m}{s}

For finding the tension in the rope,

First find the mass of rod,

mg = 150                          ( g = 9.8 \frac{m}{s^{2} } )

  m = \frac{150}{9.8}

  m = 15.3 kg

Tension in the rope is,

  T = mg + \frac{mv^{2} }{r}

  T = 150 + \frac{15.3 \times (5.5)^{2} }{4.1}

  T = 262.88 N

Therefore, the tension in the rope is 262.88 N

You charge an initially uncharged 89.9-mf capacitor through a 30.5-ω resistor by means of a 9.00-v battery having negligible int
blsea [12.9K]
<span>1) The differential equation that models the RC circuit is :

(d/dt)V_capacitor </span>+ (V_capacitor/RC)​ = (V_source/<span>RC)​​</span>

<span>Where the time constant of the circuit is defined by the product of R*C

Time constant = T = R*C = (</span>30.5 ohms) * (89.9-mf) = 2.742 s


2)
C<span>harge of the capacitor 1.57 time constants

1.57*(2.742) = 4.3048 s

The solution of the differential equation is

</span>V_capac (t) = (V_capac(0) - V_capac(∞<span>))e ^(-t /T)  +  </span>V_capac(∞)

Since the capacitor is initially uncharged V_capac(0) = 0

And the maximun Voltage the capacitor will have in this configuration is the voltage of the battery  V_capac(∞) = 9V 

This means,

V_capac (t) = (-9V)e ^(-t /T)  +  9V

The charge in a capacitor is defined as Q = C*V

Where C is the capacitance and V is the Voltage across

V_capac (4.3048 s) = (-9V)e ^(-4.3048 s /T)  +  9V

V_capac (4.3048 s) = (-9V)e ^(-4.3048 s /2.742 s)  +  9V

V_capac (4.3048 s) = (-9V)e ^(-4.3048 s /2.742 s)  +  9V = -1.87V +9V

V_capac (4.3048 s) = 7.1275 V

Q (4.3048 s)  = 89.9mF*(7.1275V) = 0.6407 C

3) The charge after a very long time refers to the maximum charge the capacitor will hold in this circuit. This occurs when the voltage accross its terminals is equal to the voltage of the battery = 9V

Q (∞)  = 89.9mF*(9V) = 0.8091 C

A train travels 90 kilometers in 4 hours, and then 82 kilometers in 1 hours. What is its average speed?
kvasek [131]
Average speed = total distance / total time.

That's 172 km / 5 hr = 34.4 km//hr
