Answer:

41.2°

Explanation:

Total internal reflection is the reflection of the incident ray at the interface between two media in which one of the media has a lower refractive index than the other. It occurs when the angle of incidence in the denser medium exceeds the critical angle.

The critical angle is the angle of incidence in the denser medium when the angle of incidence in the less dense medium is 90°.

Since

n= 1/sin C

C= sin^-(1/n)

C= sin^-(1/1.33)

C= 48.8°

Hence angle of incidence= 90-48.8 = 41.2°

A floating ice block is pushed through a displacement d = (23 m) i - (9 m) j along a straight embankment by rushing water, which

Sav [38]

Answer:

Work = 5941 J

Explanation:

As we know that work done is given by the equation

$W = F. d$

here we know that

$F = (200 N)\hat i - (149 N) \hat j$

also we have

$d = (23m) \hat i - (9 m)\hat j$

now from above formula we have

$W = (200 N\hat i - 149 N \hat j).(23 m\hat i - 9m \hat j)$

$W = 5941 J$

The intensity at distance from a spherically symmetric sound source is 100 W/m2. What is the intensity at five times this distan

ss7ja [257]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to intensity as a function of power and area.

Intensity is defined to be the power per unit area carried by a wave. Power is the rate at which energy is transferred by the wave. In equation form, intensity I is

$I = \frac{P}{A}$
