We begin by noting that the angle of incidence is the one that's taken with respect to the normal to the surface in question. In this case the angle of incidence is 30. The material is Flint Glass according to the original question. The refractive indez of air n1=1, the refractive index of red in flint glass is nred=1.57, finally for violet in the glass medium is nviolet=1.60. Snell's Law dictates:
Where
differs for each wavelenght, that means violet and red will have different refractive indices in the glass.
In the second figure provided details are given on which are the angles in question,
is the distance between both rays.
At what distance d from the incidence normal will the beams land at the bottom?
For violet we have:
For red we have:
We finally have:
Explanation:
Suppose you want to shine a flashlight beam down a long, straight hallway. Just point the beam straight down the hallway -- light travels in straight lines, so it is no problem. What if the hallway has a bend in it? You could place a mirror at the bend to reflect the light beam around the corner. What if the hallway is very winding with multiple bends? You might line the walls with mirrors and angle the beam so that it bounces from side-to-side all along the hallway. This is exactly what happens in an optical fiber.
The light in a fiber-optic cable travels through the core (hallway) by constantly bouncing from the cladding (mirror-lined walls), a principle called total internal reflection. Because the cladding does not absorb any light from the core, the light wave can travel great distances.
However, some of the light signal degrades within the fiber, mostly due to impurities in the glass. The extent that the signal degrades depends on the purity of the glass and the wavelength of the transmitted light (for example, 850 nm = 60 to 75 percent/km; 1,300 nm = 50 to 60 percent/km; 1,550 nm is greater than 50 percent/km). Some premium optical fibers show much less signal degradation -- less than 10 percent/km at 1,550 nm.

Answer:
λ = 3.2 x 10⁻⁷ m = 320 nm
Explanation:
The relationship between the velocity of electromagnetic waves (UV rays) and the their frequency is:
v = fλ
where,
v = c = speed of the electromagnetic waves (UV rays) = speed of light
c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
f = frequency of the electromagnetic waves (UV rays) = 9.38 x 10¹⁴ Hz
λ = wavelength of the electromagnetic waves (UV rays) = ?
Therefore, substituting the values in the relation, we get:
3 x 10⁸ m/s = (9.38 x 10¹⁴ Hz)(λ)
λ = (3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(9.38 x 10¹⁴ Hz)
<u>λ = 3.2 x 10⁻⁷ m = 320 nm</u>
So, the radiation of <u>320 nm</u> wavelength is absorbed by Ozone.
Till the time car is just adjacent to the bicycle we can say
distance moved by cycle = distance moved by car
Time taken by car to accelerate from rest
Time taken by cycle to accelerate
now the distance moved by cycle in time "t"
distance moved by car in same time
now make them equal
so cycle will move ahead of car for t = 5.68 s
