Determine the depth of a swimming pool filled with water
Oh wow, I am having a slow night sorry! Sooo let's try this again: Sin\theta2=(1.00/1.33)Sin(76)=.730 \theta2=Sin^-1(.730) \theta2=46.9' Sooo, tan(46.9')=(5.50m)/depth Depth=(5.50m)/tan(46.9') Depth=5.15m That sounds better. Did I mess up again or did I get it right?- Sammiebaby966

Determine the depth of a swimming pool filled with water
So, tan(10.5')=5.50m/x x=5.50m/tan(10.5') x=29.7m So the depth is 29.7m? I am confused because that seems large.- Sammiebaby966

Determine the depth of a swimming pool filled with water
Sin\theta1n1=Sin\theta2n2 I got the angle of the index of refraction. Sin\theta2=(1.00/1.33)Sin(14')=.182 \theta2=Sin^-1(.182) \theta2=10.5' Im not sure how to find the depth tho.- Sammiebaby966

Determine the depth of a swimming pool filled with water
We wish to determine the depth of a swimming pool filled with water without getting wet. We measure the width of the pool, which is 5.50m. We then note that the bottom edge is just visible when we stand and look at an angle of 14.0 degrees above the horizontal line. a)Calculate the depth of...- Sammiebaby966
