A spotlight on a boat is y = 2.2 m above the water, and the light strikes the water at a point that is x = 8.5 m horizontally di
slava [35]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The distance d, which locates the point where the light strikes the bottom is   29.345 m from the spotlight.

Explanation:

To solve the question we note that Snell's law states that

The product of the incident index and the sine of the angle of incident is equal to the product of the refractive index and the sine of the angle of refraction

n₁sinθ₁ = n₂sinθ₂

y = 2.2 m and strikes at x = 8.5 m, therefore tanθ₁ = 2.2/8.5 = 0.259 and

θ₁ =  14.511 °

n₁ = 1.0003 = refractive index of air

n₂ = 1.33 = refractive index of water

Therefore sinθ₂ =  \frac{n_1sin\theta_1}{n_2}  = \frac{1.003*0.251}{1.33} = 0.1885 and θ₂ = 10.86 °

Since the water depth is 4.0 m we have tanθ₂ = \frac{4}{x_2} or x₂ = \frac{4}{tan\theta_2 } =\frac{4}{tan(10.86)} = 20.845 m

d = x₂ + 8.5 = 20.845 m + 8.5 m = 29.345 m.

The law of conservation of momentum states that the total momentum of interacting objects does not change . This means the total
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The momentum of an object is equal to the product of its mass and its velocity.

Explanation:

Consider an object of mass m travelling at a velocity \vec{v}. The momentum \vec{p} of this object would be:

\vec{p} = m \cdot \vec{v}.

For the law of conservation of momentum, consider two objects: object \rm a and object \rm b. Assume that these two objects collided with each other.

  • Let m_{\rm a} and m_{\rm b} denote the mass of the two objects.
  • Let \vec{v}_{\rm a}(\text{initial}) and \vec{v}_{\rm b}(\text{initial}) denote the velocity of the two object right before the interaction.
  • Let \vec{v}_{\rm a}(\text{final}) and \vec{v}_{\rm b}(\text{final}) denote the velocity of the two objects right after the interaction.
  • The momentum of the two objects right before the collision would be m_{\rm a}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm a}(\text{initial}) and m_{\rm b}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm b}(\text{initial}), respectively.
  • The momentum of the two objects right after the collision would be m_{\rm a}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm a}(\text{final}) and m_{\rm b}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm b}(\text{final}), respectively.

The sum of the momentum of the two objects would be:

  • m_{\rm a}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm a}(\text{initial}) + m_{\rm b}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm b}(\text{initial}) right before the collision, and
  • m_{\rm a}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm a}(\text{final}) + m_{\rm b}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm b}(\text{final}) right after the collision.

Assume that the system of these two objects is isolated. By the law of conservation of momentum, the sum of the momentum of these two objects should be the same before and after the collision. That is:

m_{\rm a}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm a}(\text{initial}) + m_{\rm b}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm b}(\text{initial}) = m_{\rm a}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm a}(\text{final}) + m_{\rm b}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm b}(\text{final}).

The fraction of the total radiation that is reflected by any surface is called its _____.
Vadim26 [7]

Answer: D. Albedo

Explanation:

The proportion of total light incident on surface that is reflected back is called its albedo. These are typical features of an astronomical body. It is a dimension less quantity and its value ranges from 0 to 1. Light surfaces reflect larger amount of light than dark surfaces. This feature can be clearly seen on planet Mars and the Moon.

Thus, the fraction of the total radiation that is reflected by any surface is called its <u>Albedo.</u>
