When light bounces back, it is <em>reflected</em>. (That's why you see your <em>reflection</em> in a mirror.) When light is bent from the path it is taking, it is <em>refracted</em>. The only answer choice that makes correct use of these terms is the third choice:
- Part of the ray is <em>refracted</em> into ray B; part of the ray is <em>reflected</em> as ray R.

The index of refraction is the ratio of the sine of the angle of incidence to the sine of the angle of refraction. Both angles are measured from the normal to the surface. The angle of refraction here is 12.5° less than the angle of incidence, 44°, so is 31.5°. Then the index of refraction of the medium is ...
n = sin(44°)/sin(31.5°) = 0.69466/0.52250 = 1.3299 ≈ 1.33
- none of the offered choices is correct. The closest is 1.34.
Answer:
Explanation:
A Spring stretches / compresses when force is applied on them and they are governed by the Hookes Law which states that the force required to stretch or compress a spring is directly proportional to the distance it is stretched.
F is the force applied and x is the elongation of the spring
k is the spring constant.
negative sign indicates the change in direction from equilibrium position.
In the given question, we dont have force but we know that the pan is hanging. We also know from the Newton's second law of motion that
Inserting this into Hooke's Law
computing it for x,
This is the model which will tell the length of the spring against change in the mass located in the pan.
