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.

The kitten, Simba (Fig. A) and the kitten, Bella (Fig. B) are inspecting a goldfish swimming inside a round aquarium filled with water (nwater = 1.33). The magnitude of the radius of the round surface of the aquarium is 16 cm. The kittens are in air (nair=1.00). In order to calculate the apparent depth of the fish as viewed by the kittens, you need to use the equation shown in Fig. C. Identify the following (Please note that I am not asking you to do the calculation) n₁ P Fig. A + n₂ 9 = (n₂-n₁) R Fig. C Fig. A: n₁ = Fig. B: n₁ = ; n₂ = _; n₂ = Fig. B ; R = ; R =

Two plane mirrors make an angle α = 54.0◦ between them. A ray of light incident on one of the mirrors is reflected and hits the second mirror. Find the angle β between the ray incident on the first mirror and the ray reflected off of the second mirror. (a) 36.0◦ (b) 72.0◦ (c) 54.0◦ (d) 24.0◦ (e) None of the above.
One end of the strip of a plane mirror is fixed and the other end rests on the top of the small vertical rod. The length of the plane mirror strip is 25cm. A ray of light is incident on the mirror and reflected from the mirror and forms a spot on a screen 3m away from the mirror. Now, if the top of the rod is moved upwards 0.1 mm, then what will be movement of the spot? A 0.24 cm B 3.4 cm 5 cm 4.5 cm
Please refer to Figure 2 included. A light beam shines through air and then strikes a mirror, making an angle theta = 66.3 degrees with respect to the vertical, as shown. The reflected beam then strikes a pane of glass of thickness h = 1.01 cm, located a distance y= 32.2 cm from the mirror, and then exits the glass pane at the bottom, a horizontal distance x cm away from where it struck the mirror. What is the value of x? 74.1 cm 29.6 cm 103.7 cm 44.5 cm
デジタル形式で段階的に解決ありがとう!! SOLVE STEP BY STEP IN DIGITAL FORMAT While standing on top of a 50.0 m tall building, you discover a friend standing on the street corner. Using a protractor and a plumb line, he finds that the angle between the horizontal and the direction toward the point on the sidewalk where his friend is standing is 25.0°. His eyes are located 1.75 m above the top of the building. How far from the building level is his friend?
A 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
Please refer to Figure 2. A light beam shines through air and then strikes a mirror, making an angle theta = 48.4 degrees with respect to the vertical, as shown. The reflected beam then strikes a pane of glass of thickness h = 1.97 cm, located a distance y= 40.0 cm from the mirror, and then exits the glass pane at the bottom, a horizontal distance x cm away from where it struck the mirror. What is the value of x? 64.7 cm 27.7 cm 46.2 cm 13.9 cm
