Chapter 6, Problem 66PQ

Imagine you are out for a stroll on a sunny day when you encounter a lake. Unpolarized light from the sun is reflected off the lake into your eyes. However, you notice when you put on your vertically polarized sunglasses, the light reflected off the lake no longer reaches your eyes. What is the angle between the unpolarized light and the surface of the water, in degrees, measured from the horizontal? You may assume the index of refraction of air is nair=1 and the index of refraction of water is nwater=1.33 . Round your answer to three significant figures. Just enter the number, nothing else.
Red, yellow, green, and blue light with wavelengths of λred=700 nm , λyellow=580 nm , λgreen=520 nm , and λblue=475 nm are directed at a slit that is 20 μm wide at normal incidence. The light hits a screen 1 m behind the slit. Which color of light will have an interference minimum closest to a point 10 cm away from its central maxima? You may assume the small angle approximation sinθ≈tanθ≈θ for angles smaller than 10∘ . Just enter the wavelength of that color in nm, nothing else.
In the circuit shown, the switch is initially open and the capacitor isuncharged. What will be the current through R1 the instant after the switch isclosed? Take V=10 V, R1 = 20 W, R2 = 20 W, R3 = 10 W and C = 2 mF.

CP A rocket designed to place small payloads into orbit is carried to an altitude of 12.0 km above sea level by a converted airliner. When the airliner is flying in a straight line at a constant speed of 850 km/h, the rocket is dropped. After the drop, the air- liner maintains the same altitude and speed and continues to fly in a straight line. The rocket falls for a brief time, after which its rocket motor turns on. Once its rocket motor is on, the combined effects of thrust and gravity give the rocket a constant acceleration of magnitude 3.00g directed at an angle of 30.0° above the hori- zontal. For reasons of safety, the rocket should be at least 1.00 km in front of the airliner when it climbs through the airliner's alti- tude. Your job is to determine the minimum time that the rocket must fall before its engine starts. You can ignore air resistance. Your answer should include (i) a diagram showing the flight paths of both the rocket and the airliner, labeled at several…arrow_forward
- 1. In an industrial fabrication process, a fluid, with density p = 800 kg/m and specific heat capacity c = 5000 J/kg-C°, emerges from a tank at a temperature, T, = 400 °C. The fluid then enters a metal pipe with inner radius a = 2.0 cm and outer radius b = 3.0 cm and thermal conductivity k = 180 W/m•C°. Outside the pipe the temperature is fixed at Tout = 15 °C. If the fluid flows at speed v = 8.0 m/s and the length of the pipe is L = 25 m, what is the temperature of the fluid at the end of the pipe?

- 8.114 CALC A Variable-Mass Raindrop. In a rocket-propul- sion problem the mass is variable. Another such problem is a rain- drop falling through a cloud of small water droplets. Some of these small droplets adhere to the raindrop, thereby increasing its mass as it falls. The force on the raindrop is dp dv dm Fext = + dt dt dt = Suppose the mass of the raindrop depends on the distance x that it has fallen. Then m kx, where k is a constant, and dm/dt = kv. This gives, since Fext = mg, dv mg = m + v(kv) dt Or, dividing by k, dv xgx + v² dt This is a differential equation that has a solution of the form v = at, where a is the acceleration and is constant. Take the initial velocity of the raindrop to be zero. (a) Using the proposed solution for v, find the acceleration a. (b) Find the distance the raindrop has fallen in t = 3.00 s.
