Answer:

The flashlight leaves the water at an angle of 51.77°.

Explanation:

if n1 = 1.33 is the refractive index of water and ∅1 is the angle at which the flashlight shine beneath the water, and n2 = 1.0 is the refractive index of air and ∅2 is the angle the flashlight leaves the water.

Then, according to Snell's law :

n1×sin(∅1) = n2×sin(∅2)

sin(∅2) = n1×sin(∅1)/n2

           = (1.33)×sin(36.2)/(1.0)

           = 0.7855055×379

     ∅2 = 51.77°

Therefore, the flashlight leaves the water at an angle of 51.77°.

To the nearest square foot, how many square feet are there in an area of 4.4 square meters?
vichka [17]

Answer:

    4.4 square meters = 47 square foot

Explanation:

We have

    1 meter = 3.28084 foot

    1 square meter = 3.28084 x 3.28084 square foot = 10.76 square foot

    4.4 square meters = 4.4 x 10.76 = 47.36 square foot = 47 square foot

    4.4 square meters = 47 square foot
