Because of the difference in the density of the materials.
standard glass is 8oz, but it would depend on the glass.
If an object placed in water sinks - then it has a density greater than water.
A density greater than that of water (which varies with temperature).
The number of ounces in a glass of water can vary, but a standard glass is typically 8 ounces. Therefore, 3 glasses of water would be 24 ounces (8 ounces/glass x 3 glasses = 24 ounces).
Water.
The critical angle for perspex and water is approximately 41 degrees. This means that any light ray entering perspex from water at an angle greater than 41 degrees will be totally internally reflected within the perspex.
The critical angle of light passing from glass to water is minimum when the light is passing from a denser medium (glass) to a rarer medium (water), which is when the light travels along the normal. At this orientation, the critical angle is the smallest possible value for the glass-water interface.
Yes, there is a critical angle for light traveling from glass to water. This critical angle is the angle of incidence that results in light being refracted along the interface between the two mediums, rather than being transmitted into the other medium. The critical angle can be calculated using Snell's Law.
Decrease if the light is entering the glass at an angle greater than the critical angle, and increase if the light is entering the glass at an angle less than the critical angle. The angle the ray makes with the surface normal is known as the angle of refraction.
The critical angle of water is the angle at which light traveling from water to air bends so much that it reflects back into the water instead of refracting out. This phenomenon, known as total internal reflection, occurs when the angle of incidence is greater than the critical angle. It is important in optical devices like fiber optics, where light is transmitted through materials by reflecting off their boundaries.
A critical angle refers to the highest angle the light can possibly refract into or between objects without disappearing. ie = light going from crystal into water, the critical angle is 47degrees.
When light in glass of index of refraction n hits the surface at angle A relative to the surface normal (perpendicular line to the surface) it generally exits into the air at larger angle B. These three variables are related by Snell's Law: n Sin(A) = (1)Sin(B) (air has index of refraction approx. = 1 ) The critical angle A for internal reflection occurs when the exit angle is 90 so the exit light skims the surface. Anything larger then critical A and the light gets reflected back into the glass. So in Snell's law let B = 90; nSin(A) =(1)Sin(90) = (1)(1) so Sin(A) = 1/n For glass n ~ 1.5 so Sin(A) ~ .67 This is the sine of the critical angle. Now figure out what angle has a sign of .67 and Whala you have it.
48.6 degrees
it depends on the type of glass you are talking about.
As per Brewster's law, the angle of polarisation or polarising angle is got by the expression tan ip = mu. So for water mu = 1.33 and its polarizing angle = 53 deg 3 min For glass mu would vary for different glass such as flint etc.
This depends on the mass.
An example of total internal reflection is when light strikes the boundary between water and air at an angle greater than the critical angle, causing all the light to be reflected back into the water instead of being transmitted. This is why you can see a reflection of the underwater scene when looking at a pond or swimming pool from a certain angle.
