) A coin is tossed 13 times. a) How many different outcomes are possible? 2^8 b) How many different outcomes have exactly 4 head

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) A coin has two sides, therefore the total outcome possible when a coin is tossed is 2 i.e Head (H) and Tail (T)

outcome of two coins will be 4 i.e 2^2

Outcome of three coins will be 8 i.e 2^3 and so on. Since its following a trend, the outcome when 'n' coins is tossed will be 2^n.

Using the general formula, the possible outcome when a coin is tossed 13 times will be "2^13"

Vlada [557]

Answer:

n = 1.4266

Explanation:

Given that:

refractive index of crystalline slab n = 1.665

let refractive index of fluid is n.

angle of incidence θ₁ = 37.0°

Critical angle $\theta _c = sin^{-1} (\frac{n}{n_{slab}} )$

$sin \theta _ c =\frac{n}{n_{slab}}$

According to Snell's law of refraction:

$n sin \theta _1 = n_{slab} \ sin \ (90- \theta_c)$

At point P ; $90 - \theta _2 \leq \theta _c$

$\theta _2 = 90 - \theta _c$

Therefore:

$n \ sin \theta_1 = n_{slab} \sqrt{(1-sin^2 \theta _c)} \\ \\ n \ sin \theta_1 = n_{slab} \sqrt{(1- \frac{n}{n_{slab}} )}$

Then maximum value of refractive index n of the fluid is:

$n = \frac{n_{slab}}{\sqrt{1+ sin^2 \theta _1 } }$

$n = \frac{1.665}{\sqrt{1+ sin^2 \ 37} }$

n = 1.4266
