An incident light ray strikes water at an angle of 20 degrees. The index of refraction of air is 1.0003, and the index of refrac

tion of water is 1.33. The angle of refraction rounded to the nearest whole number is °.

In order to find the angle of the refracted ray, we may use the Snell's law (also known as Snell–Descartes law and the law of refraction). This law states that the ratio of the sines of the angles of incidence and refraction is constant for a given wave when it passes through two different media such as water, glass, or air.
 In mathematical form, this is:

n₁sin(∅₁) = n₂sin(∅₂)
Where:n is the refractive index.

Plugging in the values given into the equation:
1.0003 * sin(20°) = 1.33 * sin(∅)
∅ = 14.91
The angle of refraction is 15°.

Leona [35]

Answer:

0.6

Explanation:

The volume of a sphere = \frac{4}{3} \pi (\frac{D}{2})^3

Therefore \pi * r^2 * (\frac{D}{2} ) = \frac{4}{3} \pi (\frac{D}{2})^3

r of the disc = 1.15(\frac{ D}{2} )

Using conservation of angular momentum;

The M_i of the sphere = \frac{2}{5} m \frac{D}{2}^2

M_i of the disc = m*\frac{   \frac{1.15*D}{2}^2 }{2}

\frac{wd}{ws} = \frac{\frac{2}{5}m * \frac{D}{2}^2}{  m * \frac{(\frac{`.`5*D}{2})^2 }{2} }

= 0.6

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

curves downward, below the initial velocity vector.

Explanation:

Projectile launches are generally divided into two types: the oblique throw and the free fall. The free fall of bodies consists of throwing or abandoning projectiles from a hill or any unevenness that has a height in relation to a frame (usually the ground), while the oblique launch consists of launching a projectile at an angle. any relative to a frame (usually the ground).

Regardless of the type, when reading the paragraph above, we can say that the trajectory of a projectile will always be curved down and below the initial velocity vector.
