Imagine your class has been hired to secure the network of a relatively small public school system. The system's network(s) includes administrative offices, classroom computers, Web servers, e-mail servers, and other typical features. Your class decides that multiple layers of firewall protection are required. As a group, discuss the firewall options described in this chapter and decide which ones to use. Where would you place each type of firewall, and why?

Linearly polarized light that is oriented along the x-axis and has intensity I0 is incident on a linear polarizer (LP1) with transmission axis oriented at an angle θ1=15° clockwise with respect to the x axis. The light then passes through a second linear polarizer (LP2) with transmission axis oriented at an angle θ2 = 45° counterclockwise relative to the x axis as shown before passing through a quarter wave plate. The fast axis of the quarter wave plate is aligned with the y-axis.
1)
What is the intensity of the light after the second linear polarizer (LP2) but before the quarter wave plate?
I 2 = 0.25 I0
I 2 = 0.467 I0
I 2 = 0.75 I0
I 2 = 0.233 I0
I 2 = 0.7 I0
2)
What is the polarization after the light passes through the quarter wave plate?
Linearly polarized along θ2
Left circularly polarized
Right circularly polarized
3)
Keeping the linear polarizers and quarter wave plate exactly the same, the incident light is now changed to be unpolarized as shown below. What is the intensity of light measured after the quarter wave plate(IQWPIQWP)?
IQWP=IQWP= 0.125 I0I0
IQWP=IQWP= 0.233 I0I0
IQWP=IQWP= 0.5 I0I0
IQWP=IQWP= 0.0583 I0I0
IQWP=IQWP= 0.467 I0

1. The photoelectric effect experiment is often carried out by using a mercury light source to illuminate a particular surface. The emission spectrum of mercury has strong lines at wavelengths of 365.5 nm (ultraviolet), 404.7 nm (violet), 435.8 nm (blue), and 546.1 nm (green). The light can be passed through a diffraction grating to separate the light into these different wavelengths. Assume that photons of all these wavelengths have enough energy to overcome the work function of the surface. If the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted electrons is 1.26 eV when the green light illuminates the surface, what will the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted electrons be when the blue light illuminates the surface?
2. Two energy levels in a particular atom are at energies of −23.4 eV and −27.3 eV. When an electron makes a transition from one of these levels to the other, a photon is emitted. Calculate the wavelength of the photon. nm

A piece of ice having a mass of 2 kg and an initial temperature of −272 ℃ (very cold!) is dropped into a container of water at 25 °C. Remember that: The specific heat of water is ?? = 4186 ? ??℃ , The specific heat of ice is 2100 ? ??℃ The latent heat of fusion for water is ?? = 333000 ? ?? .
a. Very soon after the piece of ice was dropped into the water, all the water froze into ice at 0 ℃. What was the mass of the water the container?
?? = ____________ kg
b. Suppose now we drop that same ice cube (same mass same temperature) into a container that has 1 kg of water at 25 °C. All the water will freeze and become ice. What is the final temperature of the ice?

1. Consider placing two point charges on an x-y plane, the first charge, q1, at (x1, y1), and the second charge , q2, at (x2, y2).
2. Derive an expression for the electric potential and field at any arbitrary point (x, y) in terms of q1, q2, x1, x2, y1 and y2.
3. Choose some reasonable values for q1, q2, x1, x2, y1 and y2 and make a rough sketch of what you expect the electric potential/field to look like. Your picture doesn’t necessarily have to be correct, but you should include some justification for why your sketch looks the way it does. 4. Use SageMath to draw the exact electric potential and field using the expression derived above. Below is an example. x, y = var("x y") g = Graphics() g += contour_plot(1.5 + 0.2*x*y, (x, -4, 4), (y, -4, 4), fill=False, cmap="jet", labels=True, contours=[0, 1, 2, 3, 4], label_fontsize=14) g += plot_vector_field((y/2, -x/2) , (x, -4, 4), (y, -4, 4)) g.show() Your final result should look something like the figure below. Note how you can clearly see the two point charges at (1, 2) and (2, 1.5).
