A:
After a long day of driving you take a late-night swim in a motel swimming pool. When you go to your room, you realize that you have lost your room key in the pool. You borrow a powerful flashlight and walk around the pool, shining the light into it. The light shines on the key, which is lying on the bottom of the pool, when the flashlight is held 1.2 m above the water surface and is directed at the surface a horizontal distance of 1.5 m from the edge If the water here is 4.0 m deep, how far is the key from the edge of the pool?

- X rays are typically used to kill off cancer cells, however an issue some radiologists run into is the damage an x-ray may do to surrounding tissue. Because of this, accuracy plays a key role in radiation therapy. Suppose you are a medical physicist, and you have been given the task of choosing a medium with a proper index of refraction to bend the x rays such that they only hit the tumor. Suppose you know that the x ray comes in at an angle of 20 degrees with respect to the normal of your second medium. You know the tumor expands out to 5 degrees on either side of the normal what is the minimum index of refraction needed for the x ray to hit the tumorA ray of light crosses the boundary between some substance with n = 1.54 and air, going from the substance into air. If the angle of incidence is 29◦ what is the angle of refraction? Calculate to 1decimal.Light travels a distance of 0.884 m in 2.00 ns in a given substance. What is the index of refraction of this substance? Express your answer to three significant figures.

Once the light beam refracts into the water what angle does the beam make with the surface of water? 30° 68° 22° 60°A light ray traveling in water is incident upon a transparent medium. The angle of incidence is 45.0°, and the transmitted ray is refracted at an angle of 20.0°. What is the speed of light in the transparent medium (in m/s)? X What is the index of refraction of the transparent medium? How is it related to the speed of light in vacuum and the speed of light in the medium? m/sA mirror hangs 1.60 m above the floor on a vertical wall. A ray of sunlight, reflected off the mirror, forms a spot on the floor 1.14 m from the wall. Later in the day, the spot has moved to a point 2.50 m from the wall. (a) What is the change in the angle of elevation of the Sun, between the two observations? °(b) What time of day were these observations made? morning or afternoon
- The drawing shows a ray of light traveling from point A to point B, a distance of 7.80 m in a material than has an index of refraction n1. At point B, the light encounters a different substance whose index of refraction is n2 = 1.63. The light strikes the interface at the critical angle of Thetac = 49.2°. How much time does it take for the light to travel from A to B?A ray of light hits the surface between air and an unknown material at an angle A of 58.8°. It travels through the unknown material at an angle B of 38.5° relative to the vertical. What is the index of refraction of the material?A beam of light is incident from the air on a transparent substance at an angle of 56 with respect to the normal, part of the beam is reflected and the other is refracted. It is observed that the reflected and refracted beams are mutually perpendicular. What is the refractive incidence of the transparent substance? What can you say about the reflected beam? Since you know both indices of refraction, suppose a light beam is incident from the medium with the higher index of refraction to the medium with the lower index of refraction. What is the critical angle to achieve total internal reflection?
