A ray of light passes from air into carbon disulfide (n = 1.63) at an angle of 28.0 degrees to the normal. what is the refracted
Snezhnost [94]
We can solve the problem by using Snell's law, which states 
n_i \sin \theta_i = n_r \sin \theta_r
where
n_i is the refractive index of the first medium
\theta_i is the angle of incidence
n_r is the refractive index of the second medium
\theta_r is the angle of refraction

In our problem, n_i=1.00 (refractive index of air), \theta_i = 28.0^{\circ} and n_r=1.63 (refractive index of carbon disulfide), therefore we can re-arrange the previous equation to calculate the angle of refraction:
\sin \theta_r =  \frac{n_i}{n_r}  \sin \theta_r =  \frac{1.00}{1.63}  \sin 28.0^{\circ} = 0.288
From which we find
\theta_r = \arcsin (0.288)=16.7^{\circ}

How much gravitational potential energy does an object have if it is located 20 m above the point that we define as O height and
raketka [301]

Answer:

Explanation:

PE = mgh where m is the mass in kg, g is the pull of gravity which is 9.8, and h is the height of the object above the point to which it could possibly fall, measured in meters. Plugging in:

PE = 10(9.8)(20) so

PE = 1960 J

This should be rounded to 1 sig fig according to the rules of sig fig and your numbers here, but I imagine you're not following them all that much. It should be 2000 J
