When a ray passes from air into glass the direction in which the light ray is travelling changes. The light ray appears to bend as it as it passes through the surface of the glass. ... This 'bending of a ray of light' when it passes from one substance into another substance is called refraction.

Find the west component of 45 m 19º S of W
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

The west component of the given vector is - 42.548 meters.

Explanation:

We need to translate the sentence into a vectoral expression in rectangular form, which is defined as:

(x, y) = (r_{x}, r_{y})

Where:

r_{x} - Horizontal component of vector distance, measured in meters.

r_{y} - Vertical component of vector distance, measured in meters.

Let suppose that east and north have positive signs, then we get the following expression:

(x, y) = (-45\cdot \cos 19^{\circ}, -45\cdot \sin 19^{\circ})\,[m]

(x, y) = (-42.548,-14.651)\,[m]

The west component corresponds to the first component of the ordered pair. That is to say:

x = -42.548\,m

The west component of the given vector is - 42.548 meters.
