At the interface of two transparent media, light ray experiences both refraction and reflection. Does the angle of reflection de

pend on the angle of refraction? Can you demonstrate the effect of total internal reflection using the rectangular block? Explain your answer and support your answer with a drawing. In which case the shift of the light beam passing through the transparent block equals zero?

Answer:

No, the angle of reflection is independent on the angle of refraction. The total internal reflection is when the angle of incidence is more than the critical angle.

Explanation:

No, the angle of reflection is independent on the angle of refraction. The angle of reflection is only affected by the angle of incidence.

The total internal reflection is when the angle of incidence (I) is more than the critical angle (C). When the light ray pass through the rectangular block, with time, a critical angle will be formed when the refracted ray is exactly 90 degrees to the normal. As soon as the angle of incidence is more than the critical angle, a total internal reflection is formed (as shown in the attached figure).

The diffraction limit is a limit on: The diffraction limit is a limit on: A telescope's size. A telescope's angular resolution.
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

A telescope's angular resolution.

Explanation:

Diffraction limit is a minimum angular separation of two sources and it can be distinguished by the telescope. This angle is known as the diffraction limit. It is proportional to the wavelength of light and it has an inverse relation with the diameter of the telescope. Mathematically  it is defined as

θ = 1.22λ/d

where θ is the angle, λ wavelength and d is the diameter of the objective mirror (lenz).

Special relativity can be used to study an object in which frame of reference?
Tresset [83]
Special relativity led the path for general relativity; special relativity is in a sense a special application of the rules of general relativity. While general relativity is in position to tackle all of these problems, special relativity can tackle only problems in inertial frames. Inertial frame means that the frame of reference is inot accelerating. So, we disqualify answers A and D. However, remember that moving in a circle means that there is an acceleration, the centrifugal one, even if the speed does not change. Hence C is also incorrect.
The correct answer is B, since if there is no change in velocity, the frame does not accelerate and it is inertial.

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

f1 = 58.3Hz, f2 = 175Hz, f3 = 291.6Hz

Explanation:

lets assume speed of sound is 350 m/s.

frequencies of a standing wave modes of an open-close tube of length L

fm = m(v/4L)

where m is 1,3,5,7......

and fm = mf1

where f1 = fundamental frequency

so therefore: f1 = 350 x 4 / 1.5

f1 = 58.3Hz

f2 = 3 x 58.3

f2 = 175Hz

f3 = 5 x 58.3

f3 = 291.6Hz
