    You are looking up from underwater in a swimming pool radius of circle?

    So that deals with critical angle then? sin(theta)c = n1/n2 where n1 = lesser indice n2 = greater indice Hows does that relate to radius of a circle??

    You are looking up from underwater in a swimming pool radius of circle?

    Homework Statement You are looking up from under the water in a swimming pool. If you are 2m below the surface, what is the radius of the "hole" at the water surface through which you can see out of the pool? Homework Equations n.sin(theta)1 = n.sin(theta)2 The Attempt at a Solution...

    Doppler Effect: Moving Observer riding on moving source With reflection off wall

    I was confused about that too, but am now thinking I misread some of my notes... which would explain A LOT of why that didn't make sense to me. Could you check my two possible solutions and let me know if either is correct?

    Doppler Effect: Moving Observer riding on moving source With reflection off wall

    Homework Statement A bus is moving at 37.00m/s towards a wall. The sound from the bus has an original wavelength of 0.1500m. The sound from the bus reflects off the wall. What frequency sound does an observer on the moving bus hear from the reflection?? Homework Equations Moving Observer: fo...

    How Is Power Calculated in a Conveyor Belt System?

    I have two questions regarding this, any help would be GREAT! 1st Problem: Homework Statement A conveyor belt lifts 1000kg of rocks per minute a vertical distance of 10m. The rocks are at rest at the bottom of the belt and are ejected at 5 m/s. The power supplied to this machine is: A)...

    Solving for variables using 3 different equations (simultaneous equations)

    Homework Statement Solve for A, T1 and T2. Equa 1) T1 + 25.0a = 245 Equa 2) T2 − 10.0a = 98.0 Equa 3) T1 − T2 − 80.0a = 78.4 Homework Equations As above. The Attempt at a Solution I isolated a in the first equation: a = (245-T1)/25 and T2 in the second equation: T2...
