We begin by noting that the angle of incidence is the one that's taken with respect to the normal to the surface in question. In this case the angle of incidence is 30. The material is Flint Glass according to the original question. The refractive indez of air n1=1, the refractive index of red in flint glass is nred=1.57, finally for violet in the glass medium is nviolet=1.60. Snell's Law dictates:
n_1sin(\theta_1)=n_2sin(\theta_2)
Where \theta_2 differs for each wavelenght, that means violet and red will have different refractive indices in the glass.
In the second figure provided details are given on which are the angles in question, \Delta x is the distance between both rays.
\theta_{2red}=Asin(\frac{sin(30)}{1.57})\approx 18.5705
\theta_{2violet}=Asin(\frac{sin(30)}{1.60})\approx 18.21
At what distance d from the incidence normal will the beams land at the bottom?
For violet we have:
d_{violet}=h.tan(\theta_{2violet})\approx 0.0132m
For red we have:
d_{red}=h.tan(\theta_{2red})\approx 0.0134m
We finally have:
\Delta x=d_{red}-d_{violet}\approx2.8\times10^{-4}m

Why was John Paul Jones's victory important in the war? His victory increased France's confidence in the skill of the Continenta
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

C. His victory against a superior British foe inspired the American troops.

Explanation:

John Paul Jones is considered the hero in the Revolutionary War. He is known as the Father of the US Navy.

In the Revolutionary War, Jones sided with the American colonists against the British and took hold of naval ships. In 1779, when the British warship <em>Serapis</em> was in conflict with the American warship <em>Bon Homme Richard, </em>Jones plugged the American warship with the Britisher's warship and tossed a grenade into the opponent warship. Thus when Jones was victorious in the war, this boosted the American spirits for the war.

Therefore, option C is the correct answer.

Which of the following is not true? A) The energy of the sun comes from nuclear fusion. B) The fuel for nuclear fusion comes fr
denpristay [2]

Answer:

Option B) The fuel for nuclear fusion comes from sea water

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion can not be carried out by using any type of water as water is composed of stable water molecules (H_{2}O which is quite difficult to be decayed by any simple method.

Moreover, fusion reactions demands the combination of nuclei of lighter elements for which it makes use of the heavy isotopes of Hydrogen that are Deuterium and Tritium as fuel to carry out the nuclear fusion.
