As the tides slide across Earth, they exert a friction force that opposes Earth's rotation. Because of this, the time required for one Earth rotation increases by 0.0016 s every 100 years. a) Assuming that Earth is a uniform solid sphere, what is the magnitude of the torque the tides exert on Earth

Unpolarized light of intensity i_0=750w/m^2 is incident upon two polarizers. after passing through both polarizers the intensity is i_2=280w/m^2. (a) what is the intensity of the light after it passes through the first polarizer in w/m^2? (b) write an equation for the angle between the polarizers in terms of the initial (i_0) and final (i_2) intensities. (c) find the angle between the polarizers in degrees.
