The following items are positioned in sequence: A source of a beam of natural light of intensity I0, three ideal polarizers A, B

, and C; and an observer. Polarizer axis angles are measured clockwise from the vertical, as viewed by the observer. The axis angle of polarizer A is set at 0° (vertical), and the axis angle of polarizer C is set at 50°. The axis angle of polarizer B is set at 120°. What is ratio of the intensity of the beam at the observer to the intensity I0 of the source?

Answer:

Explanation:

Intensity of unpolarized light = I(o)

Intensity of light after first polarization by polarizer A. = I(o)/2

Angle between A and B = 120 degree.

Intensity of light after second polarization = I Cos² θ

= I(o) /2 x cos²120 = I(o) /8 .

Angle between B and C is 70 degree

Intensity of light after third polarization =

I(o)/8 x Cos² 70 = 0.1156 x I (o) /8 =

Required ratio =.01445

An object on a number line moved from x = 15 cm to x = 165 cm and then

olasank [31]

Answer:

v_avg = 2.9 cm/s

Explanation:

The average velocity of the object is the sum of the distance of all its trajectories divided the time:

$v_{avg}=\frac{x_{all}}{t}$

x_all is the total distance traveled by the object. In this case you have that the object traveled in the first trajectory 165cm-15cm = 150cm, and in the second one, 165cm - 25cm = 140cm

Then, x_all = 150cm + 140cm = 290cm

The average velocity is, for t = 100s

$v_{avg}=\frac{290cm}{100s}=2.9\frac{cm}{s}$

hence, the average velocity of the object in the total trajectory traveled is 2.9 cm/s

A toroidal solenoid has an inner radius of 12.0 cm and an outer radius of 15.0 cm . It carries a current of 1.50 A . Part A How

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

The number of turns is $N = 1750 \ turns$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The inner radius is $r_i = 12.0 \ cm = 0.12 \ m$

The outer radius is $r_o = 15.0 \ cm = 0.15 \ m$

The current it carries is $I = 1.50 \ A$

The magnetic field is $B = 3.75 mT = 3.75 *10^{-3} \ T$

The distance from the center is $d = 14.0 \ cm = 0.14 \ m$

Generally the number of turns is mathematically represented as

$N = \frac{2 * \pi * d * B}{ \mu_o * r_o }$

Generally $\mu_o$ is the permeability of free space with value

$\mu_o = 4\pi * 10^{-7} \ N/A^2$

So

$N = \frac{2 * 3.142 * 0.14 * 3.75 *10^{-3} }{ 4\pi * 10^{-7} * 0.15 }$

$N = 1750 \ turns$

Calculate the mass of the air contained in a room that measures 2.50 m x 5.50 m x 3.00 m if the density of air is 1.29 g/dm3.53.

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

$5.32\cdot 10^4 g$

Explanation:

First of all, we need to find the volume of the room, which is given by

$V=2.50 m \cdot 5.50 m \cdot 3.00 m =41.3 m^3$

Now we can find the mass of the air by using

$m=dV$

where

$d=1.29 g/dm^3$ is the density of the air

$V=41.3 m^3 = 41,300 dm^3$ is the volume of the room

Substituting,

$m=(1.29)(41300)=5.32\cdot 10^4 g$

The eiffel tower has a mass of 7.3 million kilograms and a height of 324 meters. its base is square with a side length of 125 me

uranmaximum [27]

Since the tower base is square with a side length of 125 m,

Therefore,

$(125\ m)^2+ (125\ m)^2=31250 m^2$

Square root of 31250 = 176.776953 (Diameter) , so this is the diameter of the cylinder to enclose it, and radius, r = 88.38834765 m and height, h = 324 m.

The volume of cylinder,

$=\pi r^2h=3.14(88.38834765 m)^2\times 324 m =7948168.803\ m^3$

Thus, the mass of the air in the cylinder,

$=1.225\ kg/m^3 \times 7948168.803\ m^3=9736506.78\ kg$

Hence, the mass of the air in the cylinder is this more than the mass of the tower.
