Astronauts on the first trip to mars take along a pendulum that has a period on earth of 1.09 s. the period on the other planet turns out to be 3.23 s. what is the free-fall acceleration on that other planet?

Unpolarized light whose intensity is 1.19 w/ is incident on a polarizer. (a) what is the intensity of the light leaving the polarizer? (b) if the analyzer is set at an angle of = 41.0∘ with respect to the polarizer, what is the intensity of the light that reaches the photocell?

The electric field between square plates of a parallel-plate capacitor has magnitude e. the potential across the plates is maintained with constant voltage by a battery as they are pulled apart to twice their original separation, which is small compared to the dimensions of the plates. the magnitude of the electric field between the plates is now equal to a)e b)e/4 c)e/2 d)4e e)2e
