- Jennifer stretches in front of the 2.0 m tall mirror in her hallway, aiming the green laser pointer at the angle 45 degrees below the horizontal and observes the reflection on the floor, distance x away. If the laser is initially 1.56 m above the ground and Jennifer is standing 1.56 m away from the mirror, how far away from the mirror is the spot on the floor? [note that x doesn't need to be smaller than d, it just happens to be in this sketch]| h d. x 2.0 mAfter 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? (Given refractive index of water is = 1.33) 1.5 m 1.2 m 4.0 mA soda straw is stuck into water at an angle of 36° to the vertical. Looking straight down, what does the angle of the submerged portion of the straw to the vertical appear to be?
- You can determine the index of refraction of a substance by determining its critical angle. (a) What is the index of refraction of a substance that has a critical angle of 51.0° when submerged in carbon tetrachloride, which has an index of refraction of 1.461? (b) What would the critical angle be for this substance in air?A student stands dsub0=2.4 m in front of a floor-to-ceiling mirror. Her eyes are hsube=1.53 m above the floor and she holds a flashlight at a distance hsubf=.55 m above the floor. Calculate the angle in degrees that the flashlight makes with respect to the floor if the light is reflected into her eyes.
