A common technique in analysis of scientific data is normalization. The purpose of normalizing data is to eliminate irrelevant constants that can obscure the salient features of the data. The goal of this experiment is to test the hypothesis that the flux of light decreases as the square of the distance from the source. In this case, the absolute value of the voltage measured by the photometer is irrelevant; only the relative value conveys useful information. Suppose that in Part 2.2.2 of the experiment, students obtain a signal value of 185 mV at a distance of 4 cm and a value of 82 mV at a distance of 6.2 cm. Normalize the students' data to the value obtained at 4 cm. (Divide the signal value by 185.) Then calculate the theoretically expected (normalized) value at 6.2 cm.

When a vertical beam of light passes through a transparent medium, the rate at which its intensity i decreases is proportional to i(t), where t represents the thickness of the medium (in feet). in clear seawater, the intensity 3 feet below the surface is 25% of the initial intensity i0 of the incident beam. what is the intensity of the beam "10" feet below the surface? (give your answer in terms of i0. round any constants or coefficients to five decimal places.)

The dipole moment of the water molecule (h2o) is 6.17x10^-30 c.m. consider a water molecule located at the origin whose dipole moment p points in the +x-direction. a chlorine ion ( of charge-1.60x10^-19c , is located at x=3.00x10^-9m . assume that is much larger than the separation d between the charges in the dipole, so that the approximate expression for the electric field along the dipole axis can be used. a) find the magnitude of the electric force that the water molecule exerts on the chlorine ion. b) what is the direction of the electric force. -x-direction or +x-direction c) is this force attractive or repulsive?
