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

What measures the amount of displacement in a transverse wave
MAVERICK [17]
Unlike a longitudinal wave, a transverse wave moves about, perpendicular to the direction of propagation. The particles in a transverse wave do not travel along the direction of propagation, but only oscillate up and down on its equilibrium position. With this, the displacement can be determined by measuring (in the case of electronic waves, using an oscilloscope or spectrum analyzer) and setting the desired units to measure the wave in.

Two ice skaters, paula and ricardo, push off from each other. ricardo weighs more than paula. part a which skater, if either, ha
ahrayia [7]

Apply the law of conservation of momentum for this situation. The law states that the momentum of a system is constant (in absence of external forces acting on it).

The 'system' in this case are the two skaters. There is no external force on the skaters. Suppose the skaters are initially standing still. The momentum in the system is 0. This value will need to remain constant, even after the mutual push (which is a set of forces from <em>inside</em> the system). So we know that

(total momentum before) = (total momentum after)

Indexing the masses and velocities by the first letter of the skaters' names:

0 = m_P\vec v_P+m_R\vec v_R\\m_P\vec v_P = m_R(-\vec v_R)

From the last row, you can see that the skaters will have momentum of same magnitude but opposite direction, after the push off. That answers the first question: neither will have a greater momentum (both will have one of same magnitude).

Since Ricardo is heavier, from the above equality it follows that

m_R>m_P\implies|\vec v_R|

In words, Paula has the greater speed, after the push-off.
