3. Sand has a low specific heat compared to air
The correct answer should be bounced off since the light ray hit the surface and reflected towards a new location. It therefore bounced off.
The question is incomplete. You dis not provide values for A and B. Here is the complete question
Light in the air is incident at an angle to a surface of (12.0 + A) degrees on a piece of glass with an index of refraction of (1.10 + (B/100)). What is the angle between the surface and the light ray once in the glass? Give your answer in degrees and rounded to three significant figures.
A = 12
B = 18
Answer:
18.5⁰
Explanation:
Angle of incidence i = 12.0 + A
A = 12
= 12.0 + 12
= 14
Refractive index u = 1.10 + B/100
= 1.10 + 18/100
= 1.10 + 0.18
= 1.28
We then find the angle of refraction index u
u = sine i / sin r
u = sine24/sinr
1.28 = sine 24 / sine r
1.28Sine r = sin24
1.28 sine r = 0.4067
Sine r = 0.4067/1.28
r = sine^-1(0.317)
r = 18.481
= 18.5⁰
Answer:
The pressure on the floor is 12 Pascal(Pa).
Explanation:
Given,
Force (F) = 240N
Area (A) = 20 cm^2
Pressure (P) = ?
we know that,
P = F/A
= 240/ 20
= 12 Pa
Chiefly in science fiction) an invisible barrier of exerted strength or impetus.
