Light is incident on the left face of an isosceles prism; with an apex angle of 49o, such that the light exiting the right face

is parallel to its surface.
What is the index of refraction of the prism, if the angle of incidence on the left face side is 19o to the normal of the face? Light is incident towards the apex.

Answer:

\mu = 1.645

Explanation:

By Snell's law we know at the left surface

\theta_i = 19^o

\theta_r = ?

\mu_1 = 1

\mu_2 = \mu

now we have

1 sin19 = \mu sin\theta_r

0.33 = \mu sin\theta_r

now on the other surface we know that

angle of incidence = \theta_r'

\theta_e = 90

so again we have

\mu sin\theta_r' = 1 sin90

so we have

\theta_r = sin^{-1}\frac{0.33}{\mu}

\theta_r' = sin^{-1}\frac{1}{\mu}

also we know that

\theta_r + \theta_r' = 49

sin^{-1}\frac{0.33}{\mu} + sin^{-1}\frac{1}{\mu} = 49

By solving above equation we have

\mu = 1.645

Let's cut through the weeds and the trash
and get down to the real situation:

                  A stone is tossed straight up at  5.89 m/s .
                  Ignore air resistance.


Gravity slows down the speed of any rising object by  9.8 m/s every second.
So the stone (aka Billy-Bob-Joe) continues to rise for

                     (5.89 m/s / 9.8 m/s²)  =  0.6 seconds.

At that timer, he has run out of upward gas.  He is at the top
of his rise, he stops rising, and begins to fall.

His average speed on the way up is  (1/2) (5.89 + 0) = 2.945 m/s .

Moving for 0.6 seconds at an average speed of  2.945 m/s,
he topped out at

                    (2.945 m/s) (0.6 s) =  1.767 meters above the trampoline.

With no other forces other than gravity acting on him, it takes him
the same time to come down from the peak as it took to rise to it.

   (0.6 sec up) + (0.6 sec down)  =  1.2 seconds until he hits rubber again.

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

9654.34 m

Explanation:

from conservation of momentum

$$\begin{aligned}30 \times 250 &=-10 \times 120+20 \times V \\20 V &=30 \times 250+10 * 120 \\V &=\frac{30 \times 250+10 \times 120}{20}=435 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\end{aligned}$$

And from Conservation of Energy

\frac{1}{2} m v^{2}=m g h\\h=\frac{v^{2}}{2 g}\\h=\frac{(435(m/s))^{2}}{2 \times 9.8(m/s^{2} )}\\h=9654.34 (m)
