A light ray traveling through medium 1, index of refraction n1n1n_1 = 1.75, reaches the interface between medium 1 and medium 2,

index of refraction n2n2 = 1.24. Part A At what minimum angle with respect to the normal must the ray be incident on the interface in order to be totally internally reflected?

Answer:

θ₁ = 35.32°

Explanation:

given,

refractive index of medium 1 = n₁ = 1.75

refractive index of medium 2 = n₂ = 1.24

condition to describe the refracted angle

 \theta_{refracted} + \theta_{reflected}=90^0

 \theta_2 = 90^0-\theta_1...(1)

Using Snell's Law

   n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

θ₁ , θ₂ is the angle of incidence and refractive index

n₁. n₂ is the refractive index medium 1 and medium 2

   1.75 x  sin θ₁ = 1.24 x sin θ₂

From equation (1)

   1.75 x  sin θ₁ = 1.24 x sin (90-θ₁)

   1.75 sin θ₁ = 1.24 cos θ₁

      tan θ₁ = 0.708

         θ₁ = 35.32°

Hence, angle of incidence is equal to θ₁ = 35.32°

Answer: You don't do work.

Explanation: If you don't do the work you don't have to ask this question. With work comes labor. With labor comes change. With change comes resistance and people do not like change. IT causes anger, so if you stop doing work and stick to the important supply like food, water, and shelter you don't have to go through the trouble of this and we can live in a peaceful environment for this world to be better than it is. People do to much, it's a natural fact but you can change the entire picture. If you read all of this thank you for accepting the fact of life.

The diagram shows Ned’s movement as he left his house and traveled to different places throughout the day. Which reference point
aleksley [76]

The pet store would be the reference point because it is where he started and it will not move. Hope this helped.

An experiment is designed to compare the differences in learning outcomes
MissTica

Answer:

B. Randomly assigning students to the two different groups

Explanation:

The bias can be controlled by making use of the randomized block design where we divide the subject into subgroups also called blocks and randomly assign treatment conditions to each block.

In this case, the blocks or sub groups are learning math from a video game and learning it from traditional classroom activities.

So the best way to control the bias is by randomly assigning students to the different groups.

What two motions combine to produce an orbit
NeX [460]
Field motion ( as opposed to collision motion) which are forces like gravity. And Static motion ( as opposed to kinetic motion)
Static motion is where an object moves on or around another moving object. (Circular motion)

Hope this helped
