In a polarized optical microscope, under a crossed polarized system, a sample of an anisotropic crystal is placed, and the interference color will be changed if the state is rotated. At this time, if the polarizing plate is removed and the natural light is directly irradiated to the crystal, can the change of interference color also be observed when the stage is rotated? Why? Please give the explaination.

A cylindrical metal can, 0.1 m high and 0.05 m in diameter, contains liquid helium at its normal boiling point of -452.074 degrees Fahrenheit. At this temperature Helium's heat of vaporization is 20.4 kJ/kg. The walls of the helium container are 1.2 cm thick and have a thermal conductivity of 13.889 W/(m K). The helium container is surrounded by liquid nitrogen at a temperature of -327.64 degrees Fahrenheit.

m, while Cylinder B has a diameter of 1.50 m. Both are the same height (2.0 m) are filled halfway with oil (density of
700. kg/m3). Both are topped by a thin metal seal that is free move up and down and can be considered massless.

Two stationary positive point charges, charge 1 of magnitude 3.55 nC and charge 2 of magnitude 2.00 nC , are separated by a distance of 53.0 cm . An electron is released from rest at the point midway between the two charges, and it moves along the line connecting the two charges.

What is the speed v final of the electron when it is 10.0 cm from charge 1?

A 1.80 x 10^-3 kg coin is on the outer-most edge of a spinning turntable, which has a radius, r, of 0.250 m.

μ_s for the coin-turntable interface is 0.690.

1) The speed at the edge of the turn table is increased until the coin just starts to slide.This maximum speed, v_max , in m/s is:

2) If the period is held constant when v_max is reached and the coin is moved halfway between the center of the turntable and the turntable's outer edge, the coin will have a higher speed and will be less stable. True or False

3) The period, T, for a coin on a turntable is the same at the outer edge as it is at the halfway point. Similarly, as the earth spins on its axis, the period that a person experiences in Seattle is the same as it is at the equator and relative to the universe the period is about 23 hr 56 min and 4s (not 24 hr). True or False

4) The normal force on the above coin depends on its mass, but the maximum speed v_max is mass independent. True or False

A musician in a concert hall is tuning her wind instrument. When she plays a short note she hears the echo of the note return from the opposite side of the 50.0 meter long auditorium 0.294 seconds later. Model the instrument as a tube closed at one end, if the instrument is properly tuned the note of the musician played would have a frequency of 233.082 Hz, but instead has a frequency of 226.513 Hz. This note is the first overtone, since the fundamental frequency is suppressed on this instrument. 1) What is the speed of sound in the concert hall on that day? 2) What is the temperature of the concert hall on that day in Kelvin? 3) What is the length of the tubing on the musician's instrument in meters? 4) How much does the musician need to change the length of the tubing to be in tune on that day? Does the tube need to be shortened or lengthened? Find the change in length of the tube, and make sure to use a negative number if the tube needs to be shorter. ( answer in meters.) 5) What is the fundamental frequency of this instrument when correctly tuned? 6) What is the second overtone of the correctly tuned instrument?

if fusion power were harnesed today, the abundant energy that results would probably sustain and even further encourage our present appetite for continued growth and in a relatively few doubling times produce an appreciable fraction of solar power input to earth. make an argument that the current delay in harnessing fusion is a blessing for the human race
