1 AnswerPhysics5 years agoPhysics question on rays?
A tank holds a 1.44-m thick layer of oil that floats on a 0.96-m thick layer of brine. Both liquids are clear and do not intermix. Point O is at the bottom of the tank, on a vertical axis. The indices of refraction of the oil and the brine are 1.40 and 1.52, respectively. A ray originating at O crosses the brine-oil interface at a point 0.60 m from the axis. The ray continues and emerges into the air above the oil. What is the angle that the ray in the air makes with the vertical?
a)54°
b)57°
c)51°
d)60°
e)48°

Two stereo speakers mounted 4.52 m apart on a wall emit identical in-phase sound waves. You are standing at the opposite wall of the room at a point directly between the two speakers. You walk 2.11 m parallel to the wall, to a location where you first notice that the sound intensity drops to zero. If the wall along which you are walking is 10.7 m from the wall with the speakers, what is the wavelength of the sound waves? CAREFUL! The distance to the wall is NOT much greater than the distance between the speakers.
a)2.6 m
b)1.7 m
c)2.1 m
d)2.9 m

1 AnswerPhysics5 years agoSimilarities and differences between exotic and engineered species?
I have to research the following topic: "The introduction of modern molecular techniques enabling the transfer of genes from one
organism to another (whether they are closely related or not), means that we have a new
class of "exotic" organisms which may escape or be released into the environment. Discuss
the possible consequence of such new invasions and consider whether they will be more or less damaging than the more traditional foreign exotics."
I was just wondering what the similarities and differences are between exotic and engineered species. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
