Answer:
Check the explanation
Explanation:
A) There are two important angles within the plastic: the angle immediately after the first refraction (the water/plastic interface) and the angle immediately before the second refraction (the plastic/air interface).
To find out how they relate, draw a picture with the path the light follows in the plastic and the normal to both surfaces.
Once you have labeled both angles, keep in mind that the surfaces are parallel, and thus their normal are parallel lines. An important theorem from geometry will give you the relationship between the angles.
Using Snell's Law, θa = asin[(nw/na)*sin(θw)]
B) D = l/tan(θw)
C) D = l/θw
D) d/D = na/nw

Answer:
ω = √(2T / (mL))
Explanation:
(a) Draw a free body diagram of the mass. There are two tension forces, one pulling down and left, the other pulling down and right.
The x-components of the tension forces cancel each other out, so the net force is in the y direction:
∑F = -2T sin θ, where θ is the angle from the horizontal.
For small angles, sin θ ≈ tan θ.
∑F = -2T tan θ
∑F = -2T (Δy / L)
(b) For a spring, the restoring force is F = -kx, and the frequency is ω = √(k/m). (This is derived by solving a second order differential equation.)
In this case, k = 2T/L, so the frequency is:
ω = √((2T/L) / m)
ω = √(2T / (mL))
