<h2>Explanation:</h2><h3>3. </h3>
When light bounces back, it is <em>reflected</em>. (That's why you see your <em>reflection</em> in a mirror.) When light is bent from the path it is taking, it is <em>refracted</em>. The only answer choice that makes correct use of these terms is the third choice:
- Part of the ray is <em>refracted</em> into ray B; part of the ray is <em>reflected</em> as ray R.

The index of refraction is the ratio of the sine of the angle of incidence to the sine of the angle of refraction. Both angles are measured from the normal to the surface. The angle of refraction here is 12.5° less than the angle of incidence, 44°, so is 31.5°. Then the index of refraction of the medium is ...
n = sin(44°)/sin(31.5°) = 0.69466/0.52250 = 1.3299 ≈ 1.33
- none of the offered choices is correct. The closest is 1.34.
Answer:
The net force on the skater is zero. (
)
Explanation:
According to Newton's First Law, an object is at equilibrium when either it is at rest or moves at constant velocity, which means a net force of zero. Based on the given statement, there are no external forces acting on skate and, therefore, the net force on the skater is zero. ()
Answer:
velocity = 1527.52 ft/s
Acceleration = 80.13 ft/s²
Explanation:
We are given;
Radius of rotation; r = 32,700 ft
Radial acceleration; a_r = r¨ = 85 ft/s²
Angular velocity; ω = θ˙˙ = 0.019 rad/s
Also, angle θ reaches 66°
So, velocity of the rocket for the given position will be;
v = rθ˙˙/cos θ
so, v = 32700 × 0.019/ cos 66
v = 1527.52 ft/s
Acceleration is given by the formula ;
a = a_r/sinθ
For the given position,
a_r = r¨ - r(θ˙˙)²
Thus,
a = (r¨ - r(θ˙˙)²)/sinθ
Plugging in the relevant values, we obtain;
a = (85 - 32700(0.019)²)/sin66
a = (85 - 11.8047)/0.9135
a = 80.13 ft/s²
