Answer:

49.63 degree

Explanation:

thickness of glass slab, t = 0.6 cm

angle of incidence = 59 degree

Let r be the angle of refraction

The refractive index of glass, ng = 3/2

refractive index of water, nw = 4/3

refarctive index of glass with respect to water = ng / nw = 3 /2 ÷ 4 /3 = 9 / 8

So, by use of Snell's law

Refractive index of glass with respect to water = Sin i / Sin r

9 / 8 = Sin 59 / Sin r

9 / 8 = 0.857 / Sin r

Sin r = 0.7619

r = 49.63 degree

Vector a has a magnitude of 12.3 units and points due west. vector b points due north. what is the magnitude of b if a - b has a
algol [13]

The magnitude of vector b is 8.58 Unit.

Since both the vectors a and b are perpendicular to each other, so we can apply the Pythagoras theorem to calculate the magnitude of the vector b.

Applying the Pythagoras theorem

(a-b)^2=a^2+b^2

15^2=12.3^2-b^2

b=8.58 unit

Therefor the magnitude of the vector b is 8.58 unit.

A car accelerates from rest for 8.0 s, and reaches a speed of 66 m/s. How far will the
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer: C

Explanation:

Find the acceleration using this kinematic equation:

v_f=v_i+at\\66=0+a*8\\a=8.25m/s^2

Now use this kinematic equation to find the displacement:

v_f^2=v_i^2+2a*d\\66^2=0^2+2(8.25)d\\4356=16.5d\\d=264m
