A flat piece of glass covers the top of a vertical cylinder that is completely filled with water. If a ray of light traveling in

the glass is incident on the interface with the water at an angle of \theta_{a} = 36.2°, the ray refracted into the water makes an angle of 49.8° with the normal to the interface. What is the smallest value of the incident angle \theta_{a} for which none of the ray refracts into the water?

Answer:

Explanation:

Using Snell's law

n₁ sinθ₁ = n₂ sinθ₂

n₁ = refractive index of the first medium ( glass)

n₂ = refractive index of the second medium ( water)

θ₁ = 36.2°, θ₂ = 49.8° refractive index of water = 1.333

n₁ sin 36.2 = 1.333 sin 49.8

n₁ = 1.333 sin 49.8° / sin 36.2° = 1.724

the smallest angle of incidence for which none of the ray refracts into the water is the critical angle which is just the angle in which there is an increase to the normal will cause total internal reflection

n₁  sin citical angle = 1.333 sin 90° where the refracted angle for this is 90°

sin critical angle = 1.3333 / 1.724 = 0.7732

critical angle = sin⁻¹0.7732 = 50.64°

Answer:

The smallest value of the incident angle is 50.8°

Explanation:

According the law of refraction:

n_{1} sin\theta _{1}  =n_{2} sin\theta _{2}

Where

n₁ = index of refraction glass

n₂ = index of refraction water = 1.333

θ₁ = 36.2°

θ₂ = 49.8°

The index of refraction of the glass is:

n_{1} =\frac{n_{2}sin\theta _{2}  }{sin\theta _{1} } =\frac{1.333*sin49.8}{sin36.2} =1.72

The smallest value of the incident angle is:

\theta =sin^{-1} \frac{n_{2} }{n_{1} } =\frac{1.333}{1.72} =50.8

Answer:

<h3>e)</h3><h3><u>Question</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>
  • Electroplating is based on magnetic effect of electricity.
<h3><u>Answer</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>
  • <em>It's</em><em> </em><em>incorrect</em><em> </em><em>sentence</em><em> </em>
  • As we know that, while electroplating there are two rods, one becoming cathode and another one becoming anode. During electroplating, when electricity is given through the rods, the anode produces positive ions which gets received at the cathode rod and negative ions produced at cathode collects at anode rod which results to the plating of the desired substance. Here, it is a chemical effect of electricity resulting to plating.

<u>So correct sentence is:</u>

  • <em>Electroplating</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>based</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>chemical</em><em> </em><em>effect</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>electricity</em><em>.</em><em> </em>

<h3>f)</h3><h3><u>Question</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>
  • An electric bulb glows due to the chemical effect of electricity.
<h3><u>Answer</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>
  • <em>It's</em><em> </em><em>incorrect</em><em> </em><em>sentence</em><em> </em>
  • As we know that, in an electric bulb there is a filament. When electricity is given in that filament of the electric bulb, the filament gets intensely heated up and results to the emission of light. Due to this heating of the filament due to electricity the electric bulb glows.

<u>So correct sentence is:</u>

  • <em>A</em><em>n electric bulb glows due to the </em><em>h</em><em>e</em><em>a</em><em>t</em><em>i</em><em>n</em><em>g</em><em> </em><em>effect of electricity.</em>
