Polaroid sunglasses are familiar to most of us. They have a special ability to cut the glare of light reflected from water or glass (see Figure 1). Polaroids have this ability because of a wave characteristic of light called polarization. What is polarization? How is it produced? What are some of its uses? The answers to these questions are related to the wave character of light.

Light is one type of electromagnetic (EM) wave. As noted earlier, EM waves are transverse waves consisting of varying electric and magnetic fields that oscillate perpendicular to the direction of propagation (see Figure 2). There are specific directions for the oscillations of the electric and magnetic fields. Polarization is the attribute that a wave’s oscillations have a definite direction relative to the direction of propagation of the wave. (This is not the same type of polarization as that discussed for the separation of charges.) Waves having such a direction are said to be polarized. For an EM wave, we define the direction of polarization to be the direction parallel to the electric field.

Answer: N/A

Explanation:

light consists of a magnetic wave and a electric wave. Due to the perpendicular infleunce of electric wave(particle) the magnetic field is very strongly influenced it(the magnetic wave) cannot be disturbed.

Suppose a certain car supplies a constant deceleration of A meter per second per second. If it is traveling at 90km/hr. When. th

aksik [14]

Answer:

i)-6.25m/s

ii)18 metres

iii)26.5 m/s or 95.4 km/hr

Explanation:

Firstly convert 90km/hr to m/s

90 × 1000/3600 = 25m/s

(i) Apply v^2 = u^2 + 2As...where v(0m/s) is the final speed and u(25m/s) is initial speed and also s is the distance moved through(50 metres)

0 = (25)^2 + 2A(50)

0 = 625 + 100A....then moved the other value to one

-625 = 100A

Hence A = -6.25m/s^2(where the negative just tells us that its deceleration)

(ii) Firstly convert 54km/hr to m/s

In which this is 54 × 1000/3600 = 15m/s

then apply the same formula as that in (i)

0 = (15)^2 + 2(-6.25)s

-225 = -12.5s

Hence the stopping distance = 18metres

(iii) Apply the same formula and always remember that the deceleration values is the same throughout this question

0 = u^2 + 2(-6.25)(56)

u^2 = 700

Hence the speed that the car was travelling at is the,square root of 700 = 26.5m/s

In km/hr....26.5 × 3600/1000 = 95.4 km/hr

When point charges q = +8.4 uC and q2 = +5.6 uC are brought near each other, each experiences a repulsive force of magnitude 0.6

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

it is separated by 80 cm distance

Explanation:

As per Coulombs law we know that force between two point charges is given by

$F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}$

here we know that

$q_1 = +8.4\mu C$

$q_2 = +5.6 \mu C$

force between two charges is given as

$F = 0.66 N$

now we have

$F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}$

$0.66 = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(8.4 \mu C)(5.6 \mu C)}{r^2}$

$r = 0.8 m$

so it is separated by 80 cm distance

Consider a box sitting in the back of a pickup. The pickup accelerates to the right, and because the bed of the pickup is sticky

andreyandreev [35.5K]

The force would be coming from the right causing the box the lean/ slide to left, if it wasnt sticky.

Question: Self-test 3.12 Calculate the change in G for ice at -10°C, with density 917 kg mº, when the pressure is increased from

Akimi4 [234]

The change in the Gibb's free energy per mole (G) is 1.96 J.

The given parameters:

Density of the ice, ρ = 917 kg/m³
Initial pressure, P₁ = 1.0 bar
Final pressure, P₂ = 2.0 bar
Temperature, T = - 10 C
Mass of water = 18 g

The change in the Gibb's free energy per mole (G) is calculated as follows;

$\Delta G = V(P_2-P_1) \\\\$

where;

V is the volume of the ice

$Density = \frac{Mass}{Volume} \\\\Volume = \frac{Mass}{Density} \\\\Volume = \frac{18 \times 10^{-3} \ kg}{917 \ m^3} \\\\Volume = 1.96 \times 10^{-5} \ m^3\\\\Volume = 1.96 \times 10^{-5} \ m^3 \times \frac{1000 \ L}{m^3} \\\\Volume = 0.0196 \ L$

Change in pressure;

$P_2 - P_1 = 2.0 \ bar \ - \ 1.0 \ bar = 1.0 \ bar = 0.987 \ atm$

The change in the Gibb's free energy per mole (G);

$\Delta G= V(P_2-P_1)\\\\\Delta G = 0.0196\ L \times 0.987\ atm \\\\\Delta G = 0.0193 \ L.atm\\\\1 \ L.atm = 101.325 \ J\\\\\Delta G = 0.0193 \ L.atm \times \frac{101.325 \ J}{1 \ L.atm} \\\\\Delta G = 1.96 \ J$

Thus, the change in the Gibb's free energy per mole (G) is 1.96 J.
