Consider that a ray of light is travelling from glass to water. The refractive index of water is 1.30 (i e n . ., 1.30 w = ) and

refractive index of glass is 1.70 (i e n . ., 1.70 g = ). Again, remind yourself that light is incident from glass to water. At the glass-water interface the light suffers total internal reflection (TIR). Find the condition for total internal reflection

Answer:

\theta_i=49.88^{\circ}

Explanation:

Total internal reflection can happen when light goes from a medium with higher refractive index (in this case, glass) to a medium with lower refractive index (in this case, water).

Snell's Law tells us that n_isin\theta_i=n_rsin\theta_r, where the <em>i</em> stands for incident (in this case, glass) and the <em>r</em> for refracted (in this case, water). We want to know when \theta_r=90^{\circ}, that is, when n_isin\theta_i=n_r, and this happens when the incident angle is:

\theta_i=arcsin(\frac{n_r}{n_i})

Which for our values means:

\theta_i=arcsin(\frac{1.3}{1.7})=arcsin(0.76470588235)=49.88^{\circ}

Calculate the Force of Gravity acting on an object that has a mass of 1.3 kg. The object is on Earth so use 9.8m/s2 for the acce
sweet-ann [11.9K]
To calculate the gravitational force acting on an object given the mass and the acceleration due to gravity, use the following formula.

Fg = m • g
Fg = 1.3 kg • 9.8 m/s^2
Fg = 12.74 N or about 12.7 N.

The solution is C. 12.7 N.
