Viewed at night from the high diving board at a swimming pool, the light from an underwater bulb forms a bright, 10-ft diameter circle on the surface of the water (n = 1.33). how far below the pool's surface (in feet) is the bulb?

(1) 4.4
(2) 8.8
(3) 3.8
(4) 6.7
(5) 7.5

option A

Explanation:

given,

diameter of circle = 10 ft

refractive index of the water = n = 1.33

let the inclined surface of the cone makes an angle θ with vertical line then

we know,

from this θ = 48.75°

substitute this in eq ( 1 ) we have  

h = 4.38

h = 4.4 (approx.)

Hence, the correct answer is option A

0.11 m/s and 0.28 m/s should be correct

there is no correct list among the choices you've provided.

the list might look something like this:

-- baby human

-- piccolo

-- flute

-- soprano singer

-- trumpet

-- tenor singer

-- trombone

-- baritone singer

-- baritone horn

-- bass singer

-- tuba

since i had to make up the list myself, i made it easy on myself, and i didn't try to shuffle the string instruments and woodwinds into it too.
