Suppose the glass paperweight has index of refraction n=1.38. a) find the value of θ for which the reflection on the vertical su

rface of the paperweight exactly satisfies the condition for total internal reflection. b) If θ is increased, is the reflection at the vertical surface still total?

Answer:

a)θ=71.89°

b)NO

Explanation:

Given that

For glass n= 1.38

We know that for air n'=1

The angle  for total internal reflection θc given as

sin θc=n'/n

By putting the values

sin θc=n'/n

sin θc=1/1.38

θc=46.43°

n'sinθ = n sinθref

sinθref = cosθc

n'sinθ =  n cosθc

1 x sinθ =1.38 x cos 46.43°

θ=71.89°

b)

NO

Why does your heart not get tired of constantly beating throughout your body
Ipatiy [6.2K]

cardiac muscle is striated. Uniquely, the cells of this kind of muscle are joined strongly together at adherens junctions that “enable the heart to contract forcefully without ripping the fibers apart.”

Which best describes why Keplers observation of planetary motion is a law instead of a theory
svet-max [94.6K]

Kepler's first law - sometimes referred to as the law of ellipses - explains that planets are orbiting the sun in a path described as an ellipse. An ellipse can easily be constructed using a pencil, two tacks, a string, a sheet of paper and a piece of cardboard. Tack the sheet of paper to the cardboard using the two tacks. Then tie the string into a loop and wrap the loop around the two tacks. Take your pencil and pull the string until the pencil and two tacks make a triangle (see diagram at the right). Then begin to trace out a path with the pencil, keeping the string wrapped tightly around the tacks. The resulting shape will be an ellipse. An ellipse is a special curve in which the sum of the distances from every point on the curve to two other points is a constant. The two other points (represented here by the tack locations) are known as the foci of the ellipse. The closer together that these points are, the more closely that the ellipse resembles the shape of a circle. In fact, a circle is the special case of an ellipse in which the two foci are at the same location. Kepler's first law is rather simple - all planets orbit the sun in a path that resembles an ellipse, with the sun being located at one of the foci of that ellipse.
