Explanation of Solution

Reflection of light:

The bouncing back of the light in the same medium after it strikes a surface is reflection of light.

Law of reflection:

The angle of the incident ray is equal to the angle of reflected ray.

Determine the point on water surface at which the reflection of light is seen:

The given diagram represents the condition of the question.

Explanation:

The angle of incidence is,

tanθ=10x

The angle of reflection is,

tanϕ=515x

The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection

A standard science experiment is to drop a ball and see how high it bounces. Once the “bounciness” of the ball has been determined, the ratio gives a bounciness index. For example, if a ball dropped from a height of 10 feet bounces 6 feet high, the index is 0.6 and the total distance traveled by the ball is 16 feet after one bounce. If the ball were to continue bouncing, the distance after two bounces would be 10 ft + 6 ft + 6 ft + 3.6 ft = 25.6 ft. Note that distance traveled for each successive bounce is the distance to the floor plus 0.6 of that distance as the ball comes back up. Write a program that lets the user enter the initial height of the ball and the number of times the ball is allowed to continue bouncing. Output should be the total distance traveled by the ball. Please name your function "bounce" that has three arguments (initial height, index, number of bounce) and return the total distance traveled by the ball.

Consider a room with world coordinate system U-V-W as shown. Two cameras are mounted in the room, forming a stereo pair. The world coordinate origin is in one corner of the room, with UV-W axes shown. The "Left" camera Cl is located at world coordinates (10,1,3) and it's xl-yl-zl axes are oriented as shown. The "Right" camera Cr is located at world coordinates (7.1,2) and its xr-yr-zr axes are oriented as shown. Both cameras have a focal length of 1. U (1) What is the 3x4 matrix that maps 3D points in world coordinates into 2D points in film plane coordinates (when points are represented as homogeneous coordinates), for the left camera CI? (2) What is the 3x3 essential matrix for the two cameras, treating them as a stereo pair where Cl is the "left camera" and Cr is the "right" camera?
