The question is poor. Light doesn't refract on its way THROUGH anything. It refracts at the boundary BETWEEN two different media. The effect is greatest where the ratio of the speeds of light in the two media is greatest. On your list, that would be at the boundary between air or space and glass.
When it comes to optics, Snell's law is the basic formula to be used. If you notice, when light hits the water, the light does not travel in the same direction. After, it hits the water, it changes in angle. Light becomes refracted. This is observed when your hands tend to become bigger if you place it underwater. The formula for Snell's Law is
n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂sin θ₂, where n is the index of refraction. This depends on the type of medium. For example, for air, n=1. The parameters θ₁ is the angle of incidence, and θ₂ is the angle of refraction. Critical angle is the incident angle needed so that the refract angle is 90°. So, modifying the equation:
n₁ sin θcrit = n₂sin 90°, since sin 90°=1,
sin θcrit = n₂/n₁
θcrit = sin ⁻¹ (n₂/n₁)
Since liquid comes first before glass, n₁=1.75 and n₂=1.52. Substituting,
θcrit = sin ⁻¹ (1.52/1.75)
θcrit = 60.29°
Answer:
0.8s
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Height of shelf = 3m
Unknown:
Time it will take to hit the ground = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we use the expression below;
x = ut +
gt²
x is the height
u is the initial velocity = 0m/s
g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²
t is the time taken = ?
Now insert the parameters and solve for t;
3 = (0 x t) +(
x 9.8 x t²)
3 = 4.9t²
t² = 0.6
t = 0.8s
B. Newton's First Law, I'm pretty sure. The first states that an object in motion stays in motion, and an object at rest stays at rest until an outside force is applied, and that seems pretty relevant.
C. Rotations per second
Or normally we'd use Radians Per second
