Chapter 31: Q. 10 (page 900)

A vertically polarized electromagnetic wave passes through the five polarizers in FIGUREQ31.10. Rank in order, from largest to smallest, the transmitted intensitiesIatoIe.

Short Answer

Expert verified

A vertically polarised electromagnetic wave goes through the five polarizers, which are ranked from largest to smallest in order of size isId>Ic=Ie>Ib>Ia.

Step by step solution

01

Figure for polarizes

02

Explanation

The amount of light that passes through a polarizer isI0cos2(胃).

The incident wave0is aligned with the polarizerd.

while胃=90掳for polarizer a.

Polarizerscanddare perpendicular to the vertical.

So,

Id>Ic=Ie>Ib>Ia

The intensity of an electromagnetic wave is 10W/m2. What will the intensity be if:

a. The amplitude of the electric field is doubled?

b. The amplitude of the magnetic field is doubled?

c. The amplitudes of both the electric and the magnetic fields are doubled?

d. The frequency is doubled?

You've recently read about a chemical laser that generates a 20-cm-diameter,25MW laser beam. One day, after physics class, you start to wonder if you could use the radiation pressure from this laser beam to launch small payloads into orbit. To see if this might be feasible, you do a quick calculation of the acceleration of a 20-cm-diameter, 100kg, perfectly absorbing block. What speed would such a block have if pushed horizontally 100m along a frictionless track by such a laser?

A cube of water 10 cm on a side is placed in a microwave beam having E0=11kV/m. The microwaves illuminate one face of the cube, and the water absorbs 80%of the incident energy. How long will it take to raise the water temperature by 50藲C?.Assume that the water has no heat loss during this time.

The radar system at an airport broadcasts 11GHzmicrowaves with 150kW of power. An approaching airplane with a 31m2 cross section is 30Km away. Assume that the radar broadcasts uniformly in all directions and that the airplane scatters microwaves uniformly in all directions. What is the electric field strength of the microwave signal received back at the airport 200渭slater?

Is the electric field strength in FIGUREQ31.5increasing, decreasing, or not changing? Explain.
