Homework Statement
sin 2θ = sin θ Find the solutions in degrees.
Homework Equations
sin 2θ = 2sinθcosθ
The Attempt at a Solution
sin 2θ = sin θ
2sinθcosθ = sin θ
sinθ *cosθ/sin θ = 1
That's as far as I can get, and I think that is wrong. How do I procede from 2sinθcosθ = sin θ?
Homework Statement
An aircraft causes a horizontal layer of charged particles to be formed in the atmosphere. Radio waves are relected without phase from this layer. Radio waves of frequency 8.00 x 10^2 kHz are received at a location 12 km from the transmitter. What is the minimum height of...
1. I think number 1 has to deal with the electromagnetic waves being refracted.
2. I know I do 3.0 x 10^8 * .700 to get the speed of light in water. Then I'm stuck.
3. The speed is 2.25 x 10^8, but I don't know how to get the index of refraction.
4. I am really lost.
