1. A pelican flying along a horizontal path drops a fish from a height of 5.4 m while traveling at a speed of 5.0 m/s.
How far does the fish travel horizontally before it hits the water below?
a.
v=votar
134.9 m
b. What are the horizontal and vertical components of the velocity of the fish just before it hits the ground?

speed of light in vacuum is 300,000 km/s

speed of light in other mediums is given by the expression v = c/n, where c is the speed of light in vacuum and n is the refractive index of medium.

for the first medium v = 200,000 km/s

  so, refractive index of medium = 300000/200000 = 1.5

    1.5 refractive index is usually for glass. so first medium is glass.

for the second medium v = 250,00 km/s

so, refractive index of medium = 300000/250000 = 1.2

    1.2 refractive index is usually for water. so second medium is water.

for the third medium v = 0 km/s

so, refractive index of medium = 300000/0 = ∞

    ∞ refractive index is usually for opaque mediums. so third medium is opaque medium.
