B. We can see only one side of the Moon from Earth.

( we only see one side of the moon because the moon rotates around the Earth)

We see a full moon by reflected sunlight. How much earlier did the light that enters our eye leave the sun? the earth-moon and e

Tju [1.3M]

The time taken by the light reflected from sun to reach on earth will be 8.4 minutes.

To find the answer, we need to know about the distance travelled by light.

<h3>How to find the time taken by the light reflected from sun to reach on earth?</h3>

So, in order to solve this problem, we must first know how far the moon is from Earth and how far the Sun is from the moon.
These distances are given as 3.8×10^5 km (Earth-Moon) and 1.5×10^8 km (Sun- Earth).
Since the Moon and Sun are on opposite sides of Earth during a full moon, the light's distance traveled equals,

$d=(1.5*10^8km)+2(3.8*10^5km)=1.51*10^8km=1.51*10^{11}m$

As we know that light travels at a speed of 300,000 km per second. then, the time taken by the light reflected from sun to reach on earth will be,

$t=\frac{1.51*10^{11}}{3*10^8}=503.33 s\\t=\frac{503.33}{60}=8.4min$

Thus, the time it takes for the light from the Sun to reach Earth and be recognized as 8.4 minutes.

Answer:

$\theta_{max} =18.38^o$

New $n_{cladding} =1.491$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The refractive index of the core is $n_{core} = 1.497$

The refractive index of the cladding is $n_{cladding} = 1.421$

Generally according to Snell's law

$n_{core} * sin(90- \theta) = n_{cladding} * sin (90)$

Where $\theta_{max}$ is the largest angle a largest angle a ray will make with respect to the interface of the fiber and experience total internal reflection
