A flashlight is held at the edge of a swimming pool at a height h = 1.6 m such that its beam makes an angle of θ = 38 degrees with respect to the water's surface. The pool is d = 1.75 m deep and the index of refraction for air and water are n1 = 1 and n2 = 1.33, respectively. Required:
What is the horizontal distance from the edge of the pool to the bottom of the pool where the light strikes? Write your answer in meters.

Ateam of astronauts is on a mission to land on and explore a large asteroid. in addition to collecting samples and performing experiments, one of their tasks is to demonstrate the concept of the escape speed by throwing rocks straight up at various initial speeds. with what minimum initial speed vesc will the rocks need to be thrown in order for them never to "fall" back to the asteroid? assume that the asteroid is approximately spherical, with an average density p 3.84 x108 g/m3 and volume v 2.17 x 1012 m3 recall that the universal gravitational constant is g 6.67 x 10-11 n m2/kg2

Which statements describe the movement of ocean currents around the globe? check all that apply. strong winds force warm water to sink to the ocean floor. the coriolis effect causes warm and cold water to mix. cool dense water sinks to the ocean floor. warm water replaces cool surface water. wind blowing parallel to the shore causes upwelling of cool water.
