Chapter 10.4, Problem 2bT
In each of the previous cases, predict what would be seen on a white paper screen placed at the image location. Imagine that the room has been darkened but that the pin is illuminated. (Hint: In either case, does the light from the pin that forms the image pass through the image location?)
Replace the pin with a lighted long-filament bulb and check your predictions. If either of your predictions were incorrect, resolve the inconsistency.

Here, we're looking down on a room with 6 people. The bottom wall
(including point X) and the left wall are mirrored. Person F fires a
laser beam at point X. Who gets hit by the laser? In your answer
below, include your reasoning and reflected angles for full credit. If
more than one person is in the possible path, indicate that as well
(the first person might duck out of the way!).
The goal of this exercise is to construct the best rectangular prism containers by a
company.
1. The first container they construct will be used to ship baseballs. It will have
a width of x ft, a length of (x + 6) ft and a height of (x- 2) ft. Its volume will
be 455 ft 3. Write a function V for the volume of the container. Then find
one possible width for the container. Explain.
2. Are there any other possible widths for the container? Explain.
A beam of light in air is incident at an angle of 30° to the surface of a rectangular block of
clear water (n =1.33). What is angle between incident and refracted beam?

- A pencil is inserted from the air () into an unidentified clear liquid at an incident angle with respect to the normal.

If a quantity cannot be calculated, write “X”. Distances are measured in centimeters. The object is real in all cases. If a number (except in row n for the index of refraction) has no + or –sign in front of it, find the correct sign. Draw a figure for the situation described in column a and e and construct the appropriate rays graphically. Assume a point object. Any help would be greatly appreciated :)arrow_forwardThe Block shown is 40cm thick. (d) The block is shown below. A 25° line is displayed by a diagonal dashed line. The incident light is directed at the block along the 25° line. The light enters the front surface and exits the second side back into air some time later. i. Print or redraw the diagram below, sketch the light path as the ray enters and passes through to the air on the backside of the block. Please use a ruler or make relatively straight lines. ii. When the light exits the block back into the air, will the ray travel parallel to the 25° line or at an angle to it? Determine the angle between the exiting ray and the 25° line or the distance between the two lines if they are parallel. iii.arrow_forward

The two points are, respectively, at perpendicular distances a and b from the interface. The displacement from P to Q has the component d parallel to the interface, and we let x represent the coordinate of the point where the ray enters the second medium. Let t = 0 be the instant the light starts from P.a) Show that the time at which the light arrives at Q is: b) To obtain the value of x for which t has its minimum value, differentiate t with respect to x and set the derivative equal to zero.
