Hi there!

Recall that:
\Delta V = -\int\limits^a_b {E \cdot } \, dx

Given an electric field, the potential difference can be solved by using integration. Similarly:
E = -\frac{dV}{dx}

We can differentiate the electric potential equation to solve for the electric field.

Use the power rule:
\frac{dy}{dx} x^n = nx^{n - 1}

Differentiate the given equation.

-\frac{dV}{dx}\frac{7}{x^2} =- \frac{dV}{dx}7x^{-2} = -(-14x^{-3}) = \frac{14}{x^3}

Or:
\boxed{E(x) = \frac{14}{x^3}}

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
