    You deserve way more hits on your channel than you have right now. Great stuff, thanks as always!

    This is the best channel I have found for science, the sound quality is great, voice isn't monotone and is engaging. The language used to explain things is very clear and there's no umming and ahhing, which I find really breaks my concentration when trying to learn things. Furthermore the presentation is very well done and it's a perfect mix of the theory and the problem solving behind it. Thanks so much!

    How would you calculate the critical angle for a bullet ricochet?

  • @studyblack6366
    @studyblack6366 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    is the Critical Angle always the Smaller refraction index over the larger, or is it the "first medium" over the "second medium", eg, if we have 2 planes of glass as a display box, the first/outside layer of glass is n=1.5750, the 2nd inside layer is n=1.4899, Critical Angle = InvSin(n1/n2), will n1 be the outside glass, or just the glass with the lower refraction index? as if it calcualted with InvSin(1.5750/1.4899) it will obviously not calculate. So does this mean ther eis no critical angle, or just always calculate with InvSin(Lower n / Higher n)
    Thanks.

    • @stepbystepscience
      @stepbystepscience  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      In order to get to the critical angle the second material has to have a higher index of refraction.

  • @junhaodeng1093
    @junhaodeng1093 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks, i finally understand the definition of an critical angle, so it basically is the angle(i) that makes the refracted angle to be 90.

    Hello! A little help with a problem like this ? : A light ray in water strikes a water-air interface at an angle of incidence of 50 degrees. What happens? What is the angle of refraction? would this apply ? ... I'm so confused lol

    • @stepbystepscience
      @stepbystepscience  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Mathieu Adams the formula does not change, just replace the indices of refraction with the ones for the materials you have.

  • @mustafarashad7353
    @mustafarashad7353 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Can you help me with this?
    Develop a method to measure the critical angle for the air/water interface. Using a scientific diagram show a set up that you would use to measure the critical angle between the media of water and air.
    Based on the teacher, she said that we have to make a chart of 10 trials where each trial will contain two parts. I have no idea of what she is talking about.
    Is the critical angle the same as the refraction angle or it is only the same as the refraction when its in 90 Degrees?
    Please help me :(

    • @stepbystepscience
      @stepbystepscience  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Maybe she just wants you to take 10 different measurements of the angle of refraction from 10 different angles of incidence. Start with angle of incidence at 0 degrees (ray of light perpendicular to surface) and increase angle of incidence 10 times until you get to the critical angle. Does that help?

    • @mustafarashad7353
      @mustafarashad7353 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I guess you are right. Look, so the critical angle is the angle of refraction or is it just the angle of refraction when its at 90 Degrees?

    • @stepbystepscience
      @stepbystepscience  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The critical angle is the angle of incidence that results in an angle of refraction of 90 degrees.
