3. the polarizing (or brewster) angle is defined as the angle of incidence at a boundary between two media, for which the reflected and the refracted rays are perpendicular to each other. if the polarizing angle for light traveling in air reflecting off a certain type of glass is 53°, what is the speed of light in the glass? a) 1.80×108 m/s b) 1.60×108 m/s c) 2.26×108 m/s d) 2.52×108 m/s e) 2.02×108 m/s

Speed of light in the glass

Explanation:

In this question we have given

angle of polaization,p=

we have to find the speed of light in the glass,v=?

We know that, refractive index of glass can be determined by following formula

................(1)

here,

c- speed of light in air

v-speed of light in glass

we also know according to brewester's law refrective index of glass is given as

n=tanp......................(2)

here p-angle of polarization

From equation (1) and equation (2)

we got

put value of c= and p= in equation 3

we got

bacteria that live on the ocean floor are sustained by phytoplankton. phytoplankton, microscopic marine photosynthetic organisms, have a vastly significant role to play not only in the marine food web of which they’re part of, but also on a more global scale. despite their infinitely small size in comparison to other marine organisms, these tiny creatures occupy an immensely important ecological niche: they are the foundation of the marine food web, and as primary producers, play key roles in supporting all other organisms in the marine environment, as well as in the regulation of the earth’s climate through the sequestration of carbon, oxygen production, and other related processes. phytoplankton account for roughly half of all global primary productivity; therefore, their significance extends far beyond the marine environment alone. there is an intriguing sense of irony in the realization that these tiny living beings that often live out their existence unnoticed and undetected by the rest of the world, have such a far-reaching impact on the lives of virtually all other living organisms on the planet, particularly on those in the marine environment. the world that we have become accustomed to has been and is continuously shaped by the workings of these miniscule yet vital “plants of the sea”.
