A light source at the bottom of a 4.8-m-deep water pool sends a light ray up at an angle so that the ray strikes the surface 2.4 m from the point straight above the light source. What is the emerging ray's angle (in degrees) with the normal in air?

A beam of light is emitted from the bottom of a pool of water. The pool is 4 meters deep. The index of refraction of water is 1.33. (a) If the light shines up from the horizontal at an angle of 50◦, what is the angle from horizontal that the refracted beam exits the water?

A silver coin sits on the bottom of a swimming pool that is 4 meters deep. A beam of light reflected from the coin emerges from the pool making an angle of 20 degrees with respect to the water’s surface and enters the eye of an observer. Extend this ray, which goes from the water-air surface to the eye, straight back until it intersects with the vertical line drawn through the coin. What is the apparent depth of the swimming...

A laser is aimed at the top of a pool of water. The beam makes an angle of 32 degrees to the normal to the water's surface. If the pool of water is 2.3 m deep with a flat bottom, where will the light beam hit the bottom of the pool relative to its entrance point on the air–water interface. Use nair = 1 and nwater = 1.33 for your calculations.

An underwater laser light is at the bottom of a swimming pool, and is pointed towards the surface. A light ray from the laser makes an angle of incidence of ?i=350 at the surface of the water. [Note: ??????=1.33; ????=1.00] Calculate the angle of refraction of the laser light when it emerges into the air above the water. Determine the critical angle of incidence of the laser light to have Total Internal Reflection.

10-Ci point source of 24Na is to be stored at the bottom of a pool of water. The radionuclide emits two photons per disintegration with energies 2.75 MeV and 1.37 MeV in decaying by β–emission to stable 24Mg. How deep must the water be if the exposure rate at a point 6 m directly above the source is not to exceed 20 mR/h? What is the exposure rate at the surface of the water right above the source

In searching the bottom of a pool at night, a watchman shines a narrow beam of light from his flashlight, 1.3 m above the water level, onto the surface of the water at a point d = 2.8 m from his foot at the edge of the pool. Where does the spot of light hit the bottom of the h = 2.3-m-deep pool? Measure from the bottom of the wall beneath his foot.

A boy stands on a diving board and tosses a stone into a swimming pool. The stone is thrown from a height of 2.50 m above the water surface with a velocity of 4.00 m/s at an angle of 60.0° above the horizontal. As the stone strikes the water surface, it immediately slows down to exactly half the speed it had when it struck the water and maintains that speed while in the water. After the stone enters the water,...

Question # 4: Keeping the laser-light source at the same angle, move it up and down vertically so it strikes different points on the raindrop. From your observation of the refracted light emerging from the raindrop at the bottom, why can no one observe a rainbow when the sun is high in the sky (your answer should discuss the refracted light relative to an observer on the ground
