Concept explainers
ToExplain:The importance of asking right questions rather than the answers.
Explanation of Solution
It has been said for long that if a person is asking more questions, he is dumb or slow to understand concepts but in science, it is always encouraged to ask the right questions. The beauty of science lies not in finding the exact answers but in asking the most general and relevant questions.
“Why is the color of sky blue?” or “What is light?” these seem to be pretty obvious questions but in science, they ignite a whole chain reaction of questions. One simple question as “What is light?” can lead to enormous number of questions requiring years of experiments and interpretations. The presence of gravity was so obvious but one single question “Why do the things fall downward?” led to whole new dimensions in the scientific world.
In science, it is always encouraged to ask right questions, asking the questions is not considered a sign of weakness but a sign of beautiful mind. It is advisable that while answering a question, the art of asking right questions is also taught.
Conclusion:
Therefore, in science, asking the good questions is more important than finding the answers to those questions.

- How can i solve this if n1 (refractive index of gas) and n2 (refractive index of plastic) is not known. And the brewsters angle isn't knownarrow_forward2. Consider the situation described in problem 1 where light emerges horizontally from ground level. Take k = 0.0020 m' and no = 1.0001 and find at which horizontal distance, x, the ray reaches a height of y = 1.5 m.arrow_forward2-3. Consider the situation of the reflection of a pulse at the interface of two string described in the previous problem. In addition to the net disturbances being equal at the junction, the slope of the net disturbances must also be equal at the junction at all times. Given that p1 = 4.0 g/m, H2 = 9.0 g/m and Aj = 0.50 cm find 2. A, (Answer: -0.10 cm) and 3. Ay. (Answer: 0.40 cm)please I need to show all work step by step problems 2 and 3arrow_forward
