Optical fibers are a central part of technology for rapid information transmission with a high
level of efficiency. A new type of optical fiber is crafted with an index of refraction n =
less than that of water in the vicinity of room temperature, where NH2O
fact that n < nH20 potentially problematic if the fiber should be submerged?

O A. Total internal reflection would be frustrated, allowing loss of signal.
O B. Internal reflection would actually be enhanced, so there is no problem.
C. Electric eels might have free internet access.
71. A light ray enters a rectangular block of plastic at an angle& 1 ! 45.0° and emerges at an angle & 2 ! 76.0°, as shownin Figure P35.71. (a) Determine the index of refraction ofthe plastic. (b) If the light ray enters the plastic at a pointL ! 50.0 cm from the bottom edge, how long does it takethe light ray to travel through the plastic?
Figure P22.26 shows a lightray incident on a seriesof slabs having differentrefractive indices, wheren 1 < n 2 < n 3 < n 4. Noticethat the path of the raysteadily bends toward thenormal. If the variationin n were continuous, thepath would form a smoothcurve. Use this idea and a ray diagram to explain why you cansee the Sun at sunset after it has fallen below the horizon.

- Subject: phyarrow_forwardElectric room heaters use a concave mirror to reflect infrared (IR) radiation from hot coils. Note that IR radiation follows the same law of reflection as visible light.

In a neat and organized fashion, write out a solution which includes the following: A sketch of the physical situation with all given physical quantities clearly labeled.
