Answer:
5.2 m
Explanation:
from the question we are given the following
depth of pool (d) = 3.2 m
height of laser above the pool (h) = 1 m
point of entry of laser beam from edge of water (l) = 2.5 m
we first have to calculate the angle at which the laser beam enters the water (∝),
tan ∝ = \frac{1}{2.2}
∝ = 24.44 degrees
from the attached diagram, the angle with the normal (i) = 90 - 24.4 = 65.56 degrees
lets assume it is a red laser which has a refractive index of 1.331 in water, and with this we can find the angle of refraction (r) using the formula below
refractive index = \frac{sin i}{sin r}
1.331 = \frac{sin 65.56}{sin r}
r = 43.16 degrees
we can get the distance (x) from tan r = \frac{x}{3.2}
tan 43.16 = \frac{x}{3.2}
x = 3 m
To get the total distance we need to add the value of x to 2.2 m
total distance = 3 + 2.2 = 5.2 m

If i could heat a piece of iron so that it melted, and then held a magnet close to the molten iron and then let the iron cool to room temperature, you could use a microscope to look at the iron and tell that a magnet had been present during cooling. you could even tell if it was the north or south pole of the magnet that i held close to the molten iron.
Magma/lava contains a lot of molten iron so that when it erupts from a volcano and cools, the magnetic field of the earth leaves an imprint in it, just like the cooling iron from above. From this imprint we can tell the strength of the magnetic field and also which direction the north and south poles were at the time.
Explanation:
The primary reason for this is efficiency. In most applications, a lower resistance means less power is converted to heat and lost to the surrounding environment and more of the supplied power gets to its intended destination.
