The electromagnetic spectrum is generally divided into seven regions, in order of decreasing wavelength and increasing energy and frequency: radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays and gamma rays.

A scuba diver is sitting on a boat while waiting to go on a dive and sees light reflected from the water's surface. At what angl
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

θ_p = 53.0º

Explanation:

For reflection polarization occurs when a beam is reflected at the interface between two means, the polarization in total when the angle between the reflected and the transmitted beam is 90º

Let's write the transmission equation

     n1 sin θ₁ = ne sin θ₂

The angle to normal (vertcal) is

    180 = θ2 + 90 + θ_p

    θ₂ = 90 - θ_p

Where θ₂ is the angle of the transmitted ray θ_p is the angle of the reflected polarized ray

We replace

     n1 sin θ_p = n2 sin (90 - θ_p)

Let's use the trigonometry relationship

    Sin (90- θ_p) = sin 90 cos θ_p - cos 90 sin θ_p = cos θ_p

In the law of reflection  incident angle equals reflected angle,  

    ni sin θ_p = ns cos θ_p

    n₂ / n₁ = sin θ_p / cos θ_p

    n₂ / n₁ = tan θ_p

    θ_p = tan⁻¹ (n₂ / n₁)

Now we can calculate it

The refractive index of air is 1 (n1 = 1) the refractive index of seawater varies between 1.33 and 1.40 depending on the amount of salts dissolved in the water

n₂ = 1.33

      θ_p = tan⁻¹ (1.33 / 1)

      θ_p = 53.0º

n₂ = 1.40

      θ_p = tan⁻¹ (1.40 / 1)

      Tep = 54.5º

When objects exchange charge, why do we say it's the negative charge that moves and not the positive?
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

It is said that the negative charge moves because the electrons in the atoms of any object are taken or given to the atoms of another object.

Explanation:

The atom is made up of protons, electrons and neutrons. The number of protons is exactly the same to the number of electrons for a certain element. For example, hydrogen: it has a proton, and therefore, an electron.

The electron has a negative charge. The proton has a positive charge. And the neutron has no charge, so it is neutral. While the atom has the same number of protons and electrons, it will not be electrically charged.

An example of how a charge exchange occurs between two objects is through the case of rubbing. This makes the atoms of the two objects close enough that there is an electron transfer, causing any of the objects to gain or lose electrons as a consequence of each other interaction. In the case of transferring electrons, the atom will have a greater number of protons, so it will be positively charged. When the atom receive electrons, it will have a greater number of electrons, so it will be negatively charged.

Therefore, since it is the electrons that move from one atom to another, then it is the negative charge that moves (<em>characterized by the electrons</em>) and not the positive charge (<em>characterized by the protons</em>).
