<h2>Explanation:</h2><h3>3. </h3>

When light bounces back, it is <em>reflected</em>. (That's why you see your <em>reflection</em> in a mirror.) When light is bent from the path it is taking, it is <em>refracted</em>. The only answer choice that makes correct use of these terms is the third choice:

Part of the ray is <em>refracted</em> into ray B; part of the ray is <em>reflected</em> as ray R.

_____

The index of refraction is the ratio of the sine of the angle of incidence to the sine of the angle of refraction. Both angles are measured from the normal to the surface. The angle of refraction here is 12.5° less than the angle of incidence, 44°, so is 31.5°. Then the index of refraction of the medium is ...

n = sin(44°)/sin(31.5°) = 0.69466/0.52250 = 1.3299 ≈ 1.33

none of the offered choices is correct. The closest is 1.34.

Mike walks 200 km in 6 hours.he then walks another 100km in 4 hours .what is his average speed?

kolbaska11 [484]

Average speed is defined as the ratio of total distance covered in total given time

$speed = \frac{distance}{time}$

here we know that total distance that man moved is

$d_1 = 200 km$

$d_2 = 100 km$

so total distance is

$d = d_1 + d_2$

$d = 200 km + 100 km$

$d = 300 km$

now here total time of the motion is

$t_1 = 6 hours$

$t_2 = 4 hours$

total time will be given as

$t = t_1 + t_2$

$t = 6 + 4 = 10 hours$

now by above formula

$v_{avg} = \frac{300}{10}$

$v_{avg} = 30 km/h$

so his average speed is 30 km/h

How do noise canceling headphones work?

postnew [5]

Answer:

B.) by interfering with sound waves

Explanation:

As we know that the interference of sound waves is of two types

1). constructive interference

2). destructive interference

now we know that constructive interference means the resultant intensity will be more than the intensity of interfering waves as here two waves are in same phase.

In destructive interference the resultant of two waves is given by the minimum resultant of the intensity as here the phase of two waves are opposite to each other.

So we will say that

$I = \sqrt{(I_1 + I_2 + 2\sqrt{I_1I_2}cos\theta)}$

here in case of noise cancelling headphones we know that the phase of noise is always made in opposite phase with the sound which is used to cancelled the noise.

This will reduce the noise and we will get a clear sound
