Aboat that travels with constant speed of 6.10 m/s in still water is to go directly across a river. the current in the river flows at 1.95 m/s. (a) at what angle must the boat be steered?

Standing side by side ,you and a friend step off a bridge at different times and fall for 1.6s to the water below. your friend goes first, and you follow after he has dropped a distance of 2.0m. when your friend hits the water, is the seperation between the two of you 2.0m or more than 2.0m? verify your answer with a calculation.

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.
