Answer:
The angular separation between the refracted red and refracted blue beams while they are in the glass is 42.555 - 42.283 = 0.272 degrees.
Explanation:
Given that,
The respective indices of refraction for the blue light and the red light are 1.4636 and 1.4561.
A ray of light consisting of blue light (wavelength 480 nm) and red light (wavelength 670 nm) is incident on a thick piece of glass at 80 degrees.
We need to find the angular separation between the refracted red and refracted blue beams while they are in the glass.
Using Snell's law for red light as :

Again using Snell's law for blue light as :

The angular separation between the refracted red and refracted blue beams while they are in the glass is 42.555 - 42.283 = 0.272 degrees.
I don't like the wording of any of the choices on the list.
SONAR generates a short pulse of sound, like a 'peep' or a 'ping',
focused in one direction. If there's a solid object in that direction,
then some of the sound that hits it gets reflected back, toward the
source. The source listens to hear if any of the sound that it sent
out returns to it. If it hears its own 'ping' come back, it measures
the time it took for the sound to go out and come back. That tells
the SONAR equipment that there IS a solid object in that direction,
and also HOW FAR away it is.
RADAR works exactly the same way, except RADAR uses radio waves.
Answer:
C. a disturbance that travels through a medium with a transfer of energy and without a transfer of matter
Explanation:
A wave is any disturbance that transfers energy from one location to the other via a substance called medium. It is important to note that a wave only conveys energy and not matter. For example, sound wave is a type of wave that carries sound energy from one place to another via mediums such as water, air etc.
Hence, according to this question, a wave can be described as a disturbance that travels through a medium with a transfer of energy and WITHOUT A TRANSFER OF MATTER.
Complete Question
In an action movie, the villain is rescued from the ocean by grabbing onto the ladder hanging from a helicopter. He is so intent on gripping the ladder that he lets go of his briefcase of counterfeit money when he is 130 m above the water. If the briefcase hits the water 6.0 s later, what was the speed at which the helicopter was ascending?
Answer:
The speed of the helicopter is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The height at which he let go of the brief case is h = 130 m
The time taken before the the brief case hits the water is t = 6 s
Generally the initial speed of the briefcase (Which also the speed of the helicopter )before the man let go of it is mathematically evaluated using kinematic equation as
Here s is the distance covered by the bag at sea level which is zero
