Can you use a town and country Chrysler GPS system in Mexico?

No. :( I Live in Puebla Mexico and have a US Town and Country Touring and was optimistic that it would work here. I went to the local Chrysler dealership and they literally came out to the car to look at the system because they had never seen one. I kept inquiring and they said that technically you could buy a disk for Mexico City, Guadalajara, and Monterey but that they had never seen one. It does not have the Mexican highways on it either. Sam's Club in Mexico sells a Polaroid GPS (Polaroid, don't they make cameras?) that has all of Mexico on it. It runs about $250.


What is the Difference between polarized light and ordinary light?

unpolarized light = light waves vibrate in more than one plane Polarized light = vibrations of light waves occur in a single plane.


Difference between monochromatic and polarized light?

Monochromatic means that it has only frequency. Polarized is definition for light which has its electric and magnetic vectors oscillating in a certain way (linearly polarized, elliptically and so on) but it might have many frequencies included. In the same time monochromatic light can be polarized.


Uses of plane polarized light?

hey guys this is pooja.....the answer is that it is used to detect the optical activity of a plane polarised light...!! my question: is polarisation of light by dichroism there in 2009 isc syllabus of physics.?? pls let me know...ok? thanks....do reply if u r reading my question....thanks...!! urs pooja Hey Pooja. I might be able to help. :) It is about the vibration be represented by a "sin" wave. Its unpolarised energy radiates from all direction. when plane polarized vibrate in a single plane of direction from the source. Hope this helps.

When does the intensity of transmitted light become maximum when a polaroid sheet is rotated between two crossed polaroids?

The light transmitted reaches a maximum when the intermediate sheet has its direction of polarization at a 45 degree angle to both the outside sheets.


An ideal Polaroid will transmit 50 percent of nonpolarized light incident on it How much light is transmitted by two ideal Polaroids that are oriented with their axes parallel to each other?

25 percent. Each successive polaroid with its axis parallel halves the amount of transmitted light. Therefore it would be 100%*(1/2)*(1/2) = 100%/4 = 25%


What does A Polaroid filter do?

Polaroid filters block light traveling in the horizontal plane. Essentially, the filter only allows light that's traveling vertically to get past the lens. Polaroid filters are often used on sunglasses.-----Polaroids are the collection of micro crystals that are used to control the propagation of light. As we all know, light is a wave that propogates with a speed of 3 x 108 m/s. It vibrates in all direction. If a light passes through a Polaroid, light polarised parallel is absorbed, and only the light polarised perpendicular are transmitted.


Are there clear polaroid glasses?

Most glasses (including most polaroid glasses) are clear. What would be the point of glasses if you can't see through them? You probably want to know whether there are polaroid glasses that aren't dark. No. There ain't no such animal. Daylight (like most light sources) includes photons that are polarized in all different directions. Polaroid glasses work by filtering out all but the ones that have approximately vertical polarization (as seen from the point of view of the person who is wearing the glasses). Since they're filtering out all of the photons that have less-desirable polarization, that means that not all of the photons are getting through, hence: Less Light---the glasses appear to be dark.


Most car headlights have lines across their faces what are these lines for?

to polarize the lights glare, as it is bright on its own. Without the polarization, if you stare into it, you get the same effects of staring into the sun and a laser combined. I don't think that is true polarisation, as in Polaroid sunglasses.
