Answer: The angle of incidence at which the light will fully be polarized is 60°

Explanation:

To find out the angle of incidence θB for which reflected light is fully polarized we use the equation

n1 sinθB = n2sin(90°− θB) = n 2cosθB

Since n1 is the index of refraction for medium 1 and n2 is the medium of refraction for medium 2 we then solve the equation to get

θB = tan −1 (n2/n1)

= tan −1 (2.22/1.28)=60.0°

Valentin [98]

We know that the acceleration due to gravity g is: g = 9.81 m/s^2

So the centripetal acceleration (w) is:

w^2 = 1.5 g / r

w^2 = 1.5 * (9.81 m/s^2) / 5 m

w = 1.716 rad / s

To convert to rad to rev:

w = (1.716 rad / s) * (1 rev / 2π rad) * (60 s/min)

<span>w = 16.4 rev/min </span>

Answer: 0 km/h

Explanation:
As a vector, the plane's velocity is 100 km/h (west) - 100 km/h (east)  = 0 km/m.
To an observer on the ground, the plane will be standing still.
