The Brewster angle is the angle can be found through this equation
θ=arctan(n2/n1).
This came from Snell's Law:
n1sinθ=n2sin(90-θ)
          =n2cosθ
n2/n1=tanθ --- θ=arctan(n2/n1)=arctan(1.434)=55.11 degrees

Next, the angle of refraction can be found by using Snell's Law
n1sinθ=n2sinθ'
sin(55.11)=1.434sinθ'
sinθ'=sin(55.11)/1.434=0.572 --- θ'=arcsin(0.572)=34.89 degrees

Electrically charged sunspot gases which escape the sun's chromosphere and enter the earth's atmosphere near the magnetic north
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Northern Lights ( Aurora Borealis)

Explanation:

When the electricaly charged sunspot gases (they are named a solar wind) escape the sun's chromosphere and penetrates from the earth magnetic sheild which is called earth's magnetosphere then upon there interaction with atoms and molecules of our atmosphere there are little bursts of photons in the form of light which made up these northern lights.

marta [7]

Answer:

A. quality of road-making material

Explanation:

The CBR method of flexible pavement design gives an idea about the:

A. quality of road-making material

B. traffic intensities

C. characteristics of soil

D. All of the above

The California Bearing Ratio (CBR) test is a penetration test used to evaluate the subgrade strength of roads and pavements. The results of these tests are used with the curves to determine the thickness of pavement and its component layers. it is the measure of the resistance of a material against the penetration of a standard plunger.

This can be used to determine the quality of road making material. CBR is expressed as the percentage of the actual load to the standard load.

Hi :) I don’t really understand why it’s A
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

1. When the block moves across a table top, F(pulling) = - F(frictional).

Sum of this forces = 0, so the block moves with uniform speed.

2. When the block is pulled on top of the table covered with beads

F(pulling) > - F(frictional).

So, the sum of forces (∑F) is a number that is more than 0 and directed to the direction of movement.

So,  a = ∑F / m is positive and constant. Speed is increasing because

v(t) = v(0)+at

a is constant and  directed forward.

That means a is acceleration, and constant.
