Ocean breezes are due to the convection method of heat transfer
S = ut + 0.5at^2
<span>10 = 0 + 0.5(9.81)t^2 {and if g = 10 then t^2 = 2 so t ~1.414} </span>
<span>t^2 ~ 2.04 </span>
<span>t ~ 1.43 seconds</span>
Answer:
(a) 
(b) 
(c)
(d)
Solution:
As per the question:
Refractive index of medium 1, 
Angle of refraction for medium 1, 
Angle of refraction for medium 2, 
Now,
(a) The expression for the refractive index of medium 2 is given by using Snell's law:

where
= Refractive Index of medium 2
Now,

(b) The refractive index of medium 2 can be calculated by using the expression in part (a) as:


(c) To calculate the velocity of light in medium 1:
We know that:
Thus for medium 1
(d) To calculate the velocity of light in medium 2:
For medium 2:
Draw a diagram to illustrate the problem as shown below.
The vertical component of the launch velocity is
v = (8.5 m/s)*sin30° = 4.25 m/s
The horizontal component of the launch velocity is
8.5*cos30° = 7.361 m/s
Assume that aerodynamic resistance may be ignored.
Because the horizontal distance traveled is 19 m, the time of travel is
t = 19/7.361 = 2.581 s
The downward vertical travel is modeled by
h = (-4.25 m/s)*(2.581 s) + 0.5*(9.8 m/s²)*(2.581 s)²
= 21.675 m
Answer: The height is 21.7 m (nearest tenth)
