A student has designed a circuit with one battery, two light bulbs, and two switches, pictured to the left. She would like for each switch to control one light bulb, so that when one switch is open and the other is closed, one of the light bulbs will remain lit. From the image, we can see that neither light bulb is lit, even though one of the switches is closed. What is the error the student made? Your explanation should include a discussion of the flow of electrons in the circuit.

The intensity of a polarized electromagnetic wave is 12 w/m^2. part a) what will be the intensity after passing through a polarizing filter whose axis makes the angle θ=0∘ with the plane of polarization? part b) what will be the intensity after passing through a polarizing filter whose axis makes the angle θ=30∘ with the plane of polarization? part c) what will be the intensity after passing through a polarizing filter whose axis makes the angle θ=45∘ with the plane of polarization? part d) what will be the intensity after passing through a polarizing filter whose axis makes the angle θ=60∘ with the plane of polarization? part e) what will be the intensity after passing through a polarizing filter whose axis makes the angle θ=90∘ with the plane of polarization?

Aperson stands on a platform, initially at rest, that can rotate freely without friction. the moment of inertia of the person plus the platform is ip. the person holds a spinning bicycle wheel with its axis horizontal. the wheel has moment of inertia iw and angular velocity ωw. take the ωw direction counterclockwise when viewed from above. part a what will be the angular velocity ωp of the platform if the person moves the axis of the wheel so that it points vertically upward?

The statue of liberty is 305.5 feet high. when the angle of elevation of the sun is 50 , what is the distance to the tip of the shadow from a point at water level and directly below the highest point of the statue?
