Unpolarized light is incident on a series of polarizing disks. we have three polarizers a, b and c have transmission axes that make angles of 30, 90 and 180 degrees, respectively, measured cw from the vertical y-axis. you want to maximize the relative transmission and can place them in any order. what is the maximum possible relative transmission (ie. ifinal/i0) passing through a series of all three polarizers

Which principle states: "geologic processes taking place on earth today operated similarly in the past and can be used to explain past geologic events"? a. lateral continuity

The answer would be a

W= fd
where f is an applied force and d is the distance over which it is applied. when a parachuting skydiver is at constant velocity, he is experiencing "terminal velocity", the point at which his acceleration down is canceled out by air resistance. that means that the resisting force of the air is equal to his weight, but in the opposite direction. with this, we can solve for the work done by the force.
w = fd
w = (92.0)(9.81 m/s^2) (325)
w= 2.93 x 10^5 j
the value for work in this case is positive because it is pushing up on the skydiver, who has a downward force of gravity.
therefore the answer is 2.93 x 10^5 j
