they help us allocate a particular place in case one needs to allocate or find a place or something
Answer:
Explanation:
The ball will rise decreasing its speed until it reaches the highest point where its speed will be zero. From this point the tennis ball will begin to fall again, in the free fall the tennis ball will gain speed but now in the opposite direction. When it returns to the same point where it was launched, its speed will be the same as the one that was launched but with the opposite sign.
We can check this using the equation:
where
ang h is the height, but because the ball returns to the same point where it started, h =0
then
the initial and final velocity will be the same in number, but we know that the ball is going in the opposite direction, so the final velocity must have the opposite sign from the initial velocity
so if ,
After one meter, 3.4% of the light is gone ... either soaked up in the fiber
material or escaped from it. So only (100 - 3.4) = 96.6% of the light
remains, to go on to the next meter.
After the second meter, 96.6% of what entered it emerges from it, and
that's 96.6% of 96.6% of the original signal that entered the beginning
of the fiber.
==> After 2 meters, the intensity has dwindled to (0.966)² of its original level.
It's that exponent of ' 2 ' that corresponds to the number of meters that the light
has traveled through.
==> After 'x' meters of fiber, the remaininglight intensity is (0.966) ^x-power
of its original value.
If you shine 1,500 lumens into the front of the fiber, then after 'x' meters of
cable, you'll have
<em>(1,500) · (0.966)^x</em>
lumens of light remaining.
=========================================
The genius engineers in the fiber design industry would not handle it this way.
When they look up the 'attenuation' of the cable in the fiber manufacturer's
catalog, it would say "15dB per 100 meters".
What does that mean ? Break it down: 15dB in 100 meters is <u>0.15dB per meter</u>.
Now, watch this:
Up at the top, the problem told us that the loss in 1 meter is 3.4% . We applied
super high mathematics to that and calculated that 96.6% remains, or 0.966.
Look at this ==> 10 log(0.966) = <em><u>-0.15</u> </em> <== loss per meter, in dB .
Armed with this information, the engineer ... calculating the loss in 'x' meters of
fiber cable, doesn't have to mess with raising numbers to powers. All he has to
do is say ...
-- 0.15 dB loss per meter
-- 'x' meters of cable
-- 0.15x dB of loss.
If 'x' happens to be, say, 72 meters, then the loss is (72) (0.15) = 10.8 dB .
and 10 ^ (-10.8/10) = 10 ^ -1.08 = 0.083 = <em>8.3%</em> <== <u>That's</u> how much light
he'll have left after 72 meters, and all he had to do was a simple multiplication.
Sorry. Didn't mean to ramble on. But I do stuff like this every day.
It’s due to the refraction of light rays as they traverse the boundary between water and air. The greater the viewing angle, the more the bending of the light and therefore the less the apparent depth. An object placed in a denser medium, when viewed from rarer medium appears to be at a lesser depth than its real depth due to refraction of light.
