The index of refraction for red light in water is 1.331 and that for blue light is 1.340. A ray of white light enters the water
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

(a) 47.08°

(b) 47.50°

Explanation:

Angle of incidence  = 78.9°

<u>For blue light : </u>

Using Snell's law as:

\frac {sin\theta_2}{sin\theta_1}=\frac {n_1}{n_2}

Where,  

Θ₁ is the angle of incidence

Θ₂ is the angle of refraction

n₂ is the refractive index for blue light which is 1.340

n₁ is the refractive index of air which is 1

So,  

\frac {sin\theta_2}{sin{78.9}^0}=\frac {1}{1.340}

{sin\theta_2}=0.7323

Angle of refraction for blue light = sin⁻¹ 0.7323 = 47.08°.

<u>For red light : </u>

Using Snell's law as:

\frac {sin\theta_2}{sin\theta_1}=\frac {n_1}{n_2}

Where,  

Θ₁ is the angle of incidence

Θ₂ is the angle of refraction

n₂ is the refractive index for red light which is 1.331

n₁ is the refractive index of air which is 1

So,  

\frac {sin\theta_2}{sin{78.9}^0}=\frac {1}{1.331}

{sin\theta_2}=0.7373

Angle of refraction for red light = sin⁻¹ 0.7373 = 47.50°.

What are the waste products of excretory system
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

During life activities such as cellular respiration, several chemical reactions take place in the body. These are known as metabolism. These chemical reactions produce waste products such as carbon dioxide, water, salts, urea and uric acid. Accumulation of these wastes beyond a level inside the body is harmful to the body. The excretory organs remove these wastes. This process of removal of metabolic waste from the body is known as excretion.
