Using the principles to be developed in chapter 3 on equilibrium, one can determine that the tension in cable ab is 143.4 n. determine the moment about the x-axis of this tension force acting on point a. compare your result with the moment of the weight w of the 15-kg uniform plate about the x-axis. what is the moment of the tension force acting at a about line ob?

The two most prominent wavelengths in the light emitted by a hydrogen discharge lamp are 656 nm(red) and 486 nm (blue). light from a hydrogen lamp illuminates a diffraction grating with 520lines/mm , and the light is observed on a screen 1.5m behind the grating. part a what is the distance between the first-order red and blue fringes? express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

4. who was the first one to measure the speed of light and conclude that it is finite? 5. who was the first philosopher who thought the speed of light is finite? 13. what is the speed of light numerically? 14. give an example of something moving faster than light 15. give an example for some particles or waves that

Light that is polarized along the vertical direction is incident on a sheet of polarizing material. only 96% of the intensity of the light passes through the sheet and strikes a second sheet of polarizing material. no light passes through the second sheet. what angle does the transmission axis of the second sheet make with the vertical?
