    Physics on Khan Academy: Physics is the study of the basic principles that govern the physical world around us. We'll start by looking at motion itself. Then, we'll learn about forces, momentum, energy, and other concepts in lots of different physical situations. To get the most out of physics, you'll need a solid understanding of algebra and a basic understanding of trigonometry.
    About Khan Academy: Khan Academy offers practice exercises, instructional videos, and a personalized learning dashboard that empower learners to study at their own pace in and outside of the classroom. We tackle math, science, computer programming, history, art history, economics, and more. Our math missions guide learners from kindergarten to calculus using state-of-the-art, adaptive technology that identifies strengths and learning gaps. We've also partnered with institutions like NASA, The Museum of Modern Art, The California Academy of Sciences, and MIT to offer specialized content.

    bit strange that the adjacent side is shorter than the opposite side on that diagram which clearly shows its more than half the length

    I forgot it’s a right angle triangle, so I used the cosine law to solve for the angle of incident and I used the sine law to solve for y 💀 Took me 10 years longer than if I were to just use SOH CAH TOA. But hey, I got the right answer in the end so it doesn’t matter.

    THANK YOU!!! My teacher has been trying to teach me this but he doesnt make it seem easy like you did. I think you will be my new physics teacher :)

    so let me do that in a different color.... no, i wanna do it in a different color. this part made me laugh HAHAHA. Anyway I really appreciate this lesson.

    theta 1 is 76 degrees btw

    • @angelsintahoe
      @angelsintahoe 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I got 77.88 degrees...final answer still worked out (about) the same...11.1756 or 11.18.

    If it was a laser pointer...wouldn't it just bend again and go straight into the water without having an angle of refraction at all? Because a laser is just light??

  • @manq211
    @manq211 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    after learning basic vector trigonometry this is a scale 2 hard. learn vectors and basic trig for physics and you're good to go and of course u have to know n1sinØ1=n2sinØ2

    Thank you for doing what my lecturer and that third year uni student that runs the tutorials can't. Teach me physics.

  • @boofaloof101
    @boofaloof101 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Maybe its just me.. but i have a feeling that the math is incorrect when he divides both sides by n(water).. he has it as dividing directly by n(air). But i believe by algebra rules he has to to divide it by the whole quantity on the left side of the equation so in other-words it should be (n(air)(O/H))/n(water) instead of n(air)/n(water) x O/H.. I could easily be wrong but i just want to check!
    thanks!

    • @keivwangz
      @keivwangz 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's the same thing! Multiplication and division has the same priority, so it doesn't really matter which one you do first if there isn't any brackets present. If you would multiply the O/H with the n(air) before dividing n(air)/n(water) you would get (n(air)(O/H))/n(water)!

    • @ActuallyAudacity
      @ActuallyAudacity 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      keivwangz For your kind information it does matter. This is because of the BIDMAS rule in which you divide first and then multiply so it does not have same priority. Division is prioritized more than multiplication.

    • @icemilo1593
      @icemilo1593 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Arka Roy Yea but division is the same thing as multiplication i.e. fractions. So if you convert all the things that are divided to a fraction then you can multiply.. e.g. (1 divide 2 x 3) is the same as ( 1/2 * 3 ) so you multiply 3*1 first then divide 2 or you could do it the other way 1/2 = 0.5 * 3 = 1.5

    I paused and did this problem. I found the angle which as you showed was unnecessary. I had also forgotten about a² + b² = c², so thanks for that too. I also fluffed up at the end using cosine rather than tangent but that was just stupidity LOL. Nice little problem and great explanation.

  • @Gringorican

    you can figure out the incidence angle (theta 1) without finding the x distance by taking the inverse cos of 1.7/8.1
