Answer:
A = 6.8 km²
Explanation:
A) The sail should be reflective. This is so that, it can produce the maximum radiation pressure.
B) let's begin with the formula used to calculate the average solar sail in orbit around the sun. Thus;
F_rad = 2IA/c
I is given by the formula;
I = P/(4πr²)
Thus;
F_rad = (2A/c) × (P/(4πr²)) = PA/2cπr²
Where;
A is the area of the sail
r is the distance of the sail from the sun
c is the speed of light = 3 × 10^(8) m/s
P is total power output of the sun = 3.90 × 10^(26) W
Now,F_rad = F_g
Where F_g is gravitational force.
Thus;
PA/2cπr² = G•m•M_sun/r²
r² will cancel out to givw;
PA/2cπ = G•m•M_sun
Making A the subject, we have;
A = (2•c•π•G•m•M_sun)/P
Now, m = 1.06 × 10⁴ kg and M_sun has a standard value of 1.99 × 10^(30) kg
G is gravitational constant and has a value of 6.67 × 10^(-11) Nm²/kg²
Thus;
A = (2 × 3 × 10^(8) × π × 6.67 × 10^(-11) × 1.06 × 10^(4) × 1.99 × 10^(30))/(3.90 × 10^(26))
A = 6.8 × 10^(6) m² = 6.8 km²

A fan rotating with an initial angular velocity of 1500 rev/min is switched off. In 2.5 seconds, the angular velocity decreases to 400 rev/min. Assuming the angular acceleration is constant, answer the following questions.
How many revolutions does the blade undergo during this time?
A) 10
B) 20
C) 100
D) 125
E) 1200
Answer:
The blade undergoes 40 revolutions, so neither of the given options is correct!
Explanation:
The revolutions can be found using the following equation:
[tex]\theta_{f} = \theta_{i} + \omega_{i}*t + \frac{1}{2}\alpha*t^{2}[/tex]
Where:
α is the angular acceleration
t is the time = 2.5 s
[tex]\omega_{i}[/tex] is the initial angular velocity = 1500 rev/min
First, we need to find the angular acceleration:
[tex] \alpha = \frac{\omega_{f} - \omega_{i}}{t} = \frac{400 rev/min*2\pi rad*1 min/60 s - 1500 rev/min *2\pi rad*1 min/60 s}{2.5 s} = -46.08 rad/s^{2} [/tex]
Now, the revolutions that the blade undergo are:
[tex]\theta_{f} - \theta_{i} = \omega_{i}*t + \frac{1}{2}\alpha*t^{2}[/tex]
[tex]\Delta \theta = 1500 rev/min *2\pi rad*1 min/60 s*2.5 s - \frac{1}{2}*(46.08 rad/s^{2})*(2.5)^{2} = 248.7 rad = 39.9 rev[/tex]
Therefore, the blade undergoes 40 revolutions, so neither of the given options is correct!
I hope it helps you!

The Curiosity rover now on Mars analyzed rocks and found magnesium to have the following isotopic composition.
79.70% Mg-24 (23.9872 amu), 10.13% Mg-25 (24.9886 amu), and 10.17% Mg-26 (25.9846 amu).
A. How many neutrons are in Mg-25?
B. What is the average atomic mass of magnesium in these rocks?
C. Is the magnesium composition on Mars the same as that on Earth? Explain.
Answer:
A. number of neutrons of Magnesium Mg = 13
B. The average mass of Mg = 22.29 amu
C. the magnesium composition on Mars is not the same as that on Earth.
Explanation:
Isotopes are atoms with the same atomic number but different mass number. This is due to the difference in mass of the neutrons.
The atomic number of Magnesium Mg = 12
The atomic number of an element is the number of protons present in the atomic nucleus of the element
i.e Atomic number = number of protons = 12
The mass number of an element is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the atomic nucleus of the element.
Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons
Given that the mass number of Mg = 25
Then;
25 = 12 + number of neutrons
25 - 12 = number of neutrons
13 = number of neutrons
number of neutrons of Magnesium Mg = 13
B. What is the average atomic mass of magnesium in these rocks?
The average atomic mass of an element which exhibit isotopy is the average mass of its various isotopes as they occur naturally in any quantity of the element.
Therefore the average atomic mass of magnesium can be calculated as:
= [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{(23.9872 \times 79.70) + ( 24.9886 \times 10.13) + (25.9846 \times 10.17) }{79.7 + 10.13 +10.17}}[/tex]
= [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{(1911.77984) + ( 53.134518) + (264.263382) }{100}}[/tex]
= [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{2229.17774 }{100}}[/tex]
The average mass of Mg = 22.29 amu
C. Is the magnesium composition on Mars the same as that on Earth? Explain.
The average atomic weight of magnesium on Earth is said to be 24.305 amu while that of Mars is 22.29 amu.
There difference in the average atomic weight result into difference in their composition. Therefore,the magnesium composition on Mars is not the same as that on Earth.
A bullet is fired from a rifle pointed 45 degrees above horizontal. The bullet leaves the muzzle traveling 1400 m/s. How many seconds does it take the bullet to reach the high point of its trajectory?
The bullet's vertical velocity at time [tex]t[/tex] is
[tex]v=1400\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}-gt[/tex]
where [tex]g=9.80\frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}[/tex] is the acceleration due to gravity.
At its highest point, the bullet's vertical velocity is 0, which happens
[tex]0=1400\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}-gt\implies t=\dfrac{1400\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}}g\approx\boxed{142.857\,\mathrm s}[/tex]
(or about 140 s, if you're keeping track of significant figures) after being fired.
Warm blooded animals are homeothermic; that is, they maintain an approximately constant body temperature. (Forhumans it's about 37 oC.) When they are in an environment that is below their optimum temperature, they use energy derived from chemical reactions within their bodies to warm them up. One of the ways that animals lose energy to their environment is through radiation. Every object emits electromagnetic radiation that depends on its temperature. For very hot objects like the sun, that radiation is visible light. For cooler objects, like a house or a person, that radiation is in the infrared and is invisible. Nonetheless, it still carries energy. Other ways that energy is lost by a warm animal to a cool environment includes conduction (direct touching of a cooler object) and convection (cooler air moving and carrying thermal energy away). See Heat Transfer for a discussion of all three.
For this problem, we'll just consider how much energy an animal needs to burn (obtain from internal chemical reactions) in order to stay warm just from radiation losses. The rate at which an object loses energy through radiation is given by the Stefan-Boltzmann equation:
Rate of energy loss = AεσT4
where T is the absolute (Kelvin) temperature, A is the area of the object, ε is the emissivity (unitless and =1 for a perfect emitter, less for anything else), and σ is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant:
σ = 5.67 x 10-8 J/(s m2 K4)
Consider a patient trying to sleep naked in a cool room (55 oF = 13 oC). Assume that the person being considered is a perfect emitter and absorber of radiation (ε = 1), has a surface area of about 2.5 m2, and a mass of 80 kg.
a. A person emits thermal radiation at a rate corresponding to a temperature of 37 oC and absorbs radiation at a rate (from the air and walls) corresponding to a temperature of 13 oC. Calculate the individual's net rate of energy loss due to radiation (in Watts = Joules/second).
net rate of energy loss = Watts
b. Assume the patient produces no energy to keep warm. If they have a specific heat about equal to that of water (1 Cal/kg-oC) how much would their temperature fall in one hour? (1 Cal = 1kcal = 103 cal)
ΔT = oC
c. Given that the energy density of fat is about 9 Cal/g, how many grams of fat would the person have to utilize to maintain their body temperature in that environment for one hour?
amount of fat needed = g
Answer:
a) 360.7 J/s
b) 16.23 °C
c) 34.48 g
Explanation:
The mass of the person = 80 kg
The person is a perfect emitter, ε = 1
surface area of the person = 2.5 m^2
a) If he emits radiation at 37 °C, [tex]T_{out}[/tex] = 37 + 273 = 310 K
and receives radiation at 13 °C, [tex]T_{in}[/tex] = 13 + 273 = 286 K
Rate of energy loss E = Aεσ([tex]T^{4} _{out}[/tex] - [tex]T^{4} _{in}[/tex] )
where σ = 5.67 x 10^-8 J/(s m^2 K^4)
substituting values, we have
E = 2.5 x 1 x 5.67 x 10^-8 x ([tex]310^{4}[/tex] - [tex]286^{4}[/tex]) = 360.7 J/s
b) If they have specific heat about equal to that of water = 1 Cal/kg-°C
but 1 Cal = 1 kcal = 10^3 cal
specific heat of person is therefore = 10^3 cal/kg-°C
heat loss = 360.7 J/s = 360.7 x 3600 = 1298520 J/hr
heat lost in 1 hour = 1 x 1298520 = 1298520 J
This heat lost = mcΔT
where ΔT is the temperature fall
m is the mass
c is the specific heat equivalent to that of water
the specific heat is then = 10^3 cal/kg-°C
equating, we have
1298520 = 80 x 10^3 x ΔT
1298520 = 80000ΔT
ΔT = 1298520/80000 = 16.23 °C
c) 1298520 J = 1298520/4184 = 310.35 Cal
density of fat = 9 Cal/g
gram of fat = 310.35/9 = 34.48 g
A father and his son want to play on a seesaw. Where on the seesaw should each of them sit to balance the torque?
Answer:
A The father should sit closer to the pivot.
C The longer wrench makes the job easier because less force is needed when there is more distance from the pivot.
A As far from the head of the hammer as possible because this will maximize torque.
D at the opposite side of the seesaw towards the middle
:) gl
Explanation:
If a father and his son want to play on a seesaw then to balance the torque of the seesaw the father should sit near the pivot as he had more weight as compared to his son, while the son should sit a little farther from the pivot point as compared to his father.
What is the mechanical advantage?
Mechanical advantage is defined as a measure of the ratio of output force to input force in a system, It is used to analyze the forces in simple machines like levers and pulleys.
Mechanical advantage = output force(load) /input force (effort)
As given in the problem statement If a father and his son wish to play on a seesaw,
The father should sit close to the pivot because he weighs more than his son, and the son should sit a little farther away from the pivot point than his father. This will help balance the torque of the seesaw.
Thus, the father should sit near the pivot on the one side and the son should sit a little farther from the pivot of a seesaw on the other side.

A satellite of mass m circles a planet of mass M and radius R in an orbit at a height 2R above the surface of the planet. What minimum energy is required to change the orbit to one for which the height of the satellite is 3R above the surface of the planet
Answer:
ΔE = GMm/24R
Explanation:
centripetal acceleration a = V^2 / R = 2T/mr
T= kinetic energy
m= mass of satellite, r= radius of earth
= gravitational acceleration = GM / r^2
Now, solving for the kinetic energy:
T = GMm / 2r = -1/2 U,
where U is the potential energy
So the total energy is:
E = T+U = -GMm / 2r
Now we want to find the energy difference as r goes from one orbital radius to another:
ΔE = GMm/2 (1/R_1 - 1/R_2)
So in this case, R_1 is 3R (planet's radius + orbital altitude) and R_2 is 4R
ΔE = GMm/2R (1/3 - 1/4)
ΔE = GMm/24R

A particle moves along line segments from the origin to the points (1, 0, 0), (1, 5, 1), (0, 5, 1), and back to the origin under the influence of the force field. F(x, y, z)= z^2i + 4xyj + 5y^2kFind the work done.
Answer:
0 J
Explanation:
Since work done W = ∫F.dr and F(x, y, z)= z²i + 4xyj + 5y²k and dr = dxi + dyj + dzk
F.dr = (z²i + 4xyj + 5y²k).(dxi + dyj + dzk) = z²dx + 4xydy + 5y²dz
W = ∫F.dr = ∫z²dx + 4xydy + 5y²dz = z²x + 2xy² + 5y²z
We now evaluate the work done for the different regions
W₁ = work done from (0,0,0) to (1,0,0)
W₁ = {z²x + 2xy² + 5y²z}₀₀₀¹⁰⁰ = 0²(1) + 2(1)(0)² + 5(0)²(0) - [(0)²(0) + 2(0)(0)² + 5(0)²(0)] = 0 - 0 = 0 J
W₂ = work done from (1,0,0) to (1,5,1)
W₂ = {z²x + 2xy² + 5y²z}₁₀₀¹⁵¹ = (1)²(1) + 2(1)(5)² + 5(5)²(1) - [0²(1) + 2(1)(0)² + 5(0)²(0)] = 1 + 50 + 125 - 0 = 176 J
W₃ = work done from (1,5,1) to (0,5,1)
W₃ = {z²x + 2xy² + 5y²z}₁₅₁⁰⁵¹ = 1²(0) + 2(0)(5)² + 5(5)²(1) - [(1)²(1) + 2(1)(5)² + 5(5)²(1)] = 125 - (1 + 50 + 125) = 125 - 176 = -51 J
W₄ = work done from (0,5,1) to (0,0,0)
W₄ = {z²x + 2xy² + 5y²z}₁₅₁⁰⁰⁰ = (0)²(0) + 2(0)(0)² + 5(0)²(0) - [1²(0) + 2(0)(5)² + 5(5)²(1)] = 0 - 125 = -125 J
The total work done W is thus
W = W₁ + W₂ + W₃ + W₄
W = 0 J + 176 J - 51 J - 125 J
W = 176 J - 176 J
W = 0 J
The total work done equals 0 J
"If a beam of monochromatic light is passed though a slit of width 15 μm and the second order dark fringe of the diffraction pattern is at an angle of 5.2o from the central axis, what is the wavelength of the light?"

λ = 15 10⁻⁶ sin 5.2 / (2 +1/2)
λ = 5.4379 10⁻⁷ m
Let's reduce to nm
λ= 5.4379 10⁻⁷ m = 543.79 nm
Lamar has been running sprints to prepare for his next football game.He has found that he can maintain his maximum speed for 45 yards.He’s thinking of running in a 5km race in a few months,but doesn’t know if he can maintain his maximum speed for the entire 5 km.Can you help him determine how far he can?
Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Explanation:
Length of race = 5km
Maximum speed = 45 yards
Converting from yards to kilometer :
1km = 1093.613 yards
x = 45 yards

Answer:
[tex]\theta_1 = 0.400^o[/tex]
[tex]\theta_2 =0.378^o[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The number of slits per cm is k = [tex]161\ slits\ per\ cm = 161 \ slits\ per\ 0.01 m[/tex]
The order of the maxima is n = 1
The wavelength are [tex]\lambda_1 = 434 nm = 434 *10^{-9} \ m \ \ \ , \lambda_2 = 410nm = 410 *10^{-9} \ m[/tex]

A nearsighted person has a far point that is 4.2 m from his eyes. What focal length lenses in diopters he must use in his contacts to allow him to focus on distant objects?
Answer:
-0.24diopters
Explanation:
The lens is intended that makes an object at infinity appear to be 4.2 m away, so do=infinity, dI = - 4.2m (minus sign because image is on same side of lens as object)
So 1/do +1/di = 1/f
1/infinity + 1/-4.2 = 1/f
1/f = 1/-4.2 = -0.24diopters
Unpolarized light is passed through three successive Polaroid filters, each with its transmission axis at 45.0° to the preceding filter. What percentage of light gets through?
Answer:
The percentage is [tex]k = 12.5 \%[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The axis is is at [tex]\theta = 45 ^o[/tex]
Generally the of intensity light emerging from the first polarizer is mathematically represented as
[tex]I_{1} = \frac{I_o}{ 2}[/tex]
Where [tex]I_o[/tex] is the intensity of unpolarized light
Now the light emerging from the second polarizer is mathematically represented as
[tex]I_2 = I_ 1 * cos ^2(\theta )[/tex]
[tex]I_2 = \frac{I_o}{2} * cos ^2(45 )[/tex]
[tex]I_2 = \frac{I_o}{2} * \frac{1}{2} = \frac{I_o}{4}[/tex]
Now the light emerging from the third polarizer is mathematically represented as
[tex]I_3 = I_ 2 * cos ^2(\theta )[/tex]
[tex]I_3 = \frac{I_o}{4} * cos ^2(45 )[/tex]
[tex]I_3 = \frac{I_o}{8}[/tex]
Now the percentage of the intensity of light that emerged with respect to the intensity of the unpolarized light is
[tex]k = \frac{\frac{I_o}{8} }{I_o } * 100[/tex]
[tex]k = 12.5 \%[/tex]
The percentage of light that gets through the three successive Polaroid filters is; 12.5%
We are given;
Angle of transmission axis; θ = 45°
Formula for intensity of light from first polarizer is;
I₁ = ¹/₂I₀
Formula for intensity of light from second polarizer is;
I₂ = I₁cos²θ
Formula for intensity of light from third polarizer is;
I₃ = I₂cos²(90 - θ)
Combining the 3 equations;
Put ¹/₂I₀ for I₁ in second formula to get;
I₂ = ¹/₂I₀cos²θ
Put ¹/₂I₀cos²θ for I₂ in third formula to get;
I₃ = ¹/₂I₀cos²θ*cos²(90 - θ)
Plugging in 45° for θ gives;
I₃ = ¹/₂I₀cos²45*cos²(90 - 45)
⇒ I₃ = ¹/₂I₀cos²45*cos²45
⇒ I₃ = ¹/₂I₀cos⁴45
Now, cos 45 in surd form is 1/√2. Thus;
I₃ = ¹/₂I₀(1/√2)⁴
I₃ = ¹/₂I₀(¹/₄)
I₃ = ¹/₈I₀
I₃/I₀ = ¹/₈
I₃/I₀ = 0.125
In percentage form, we have;
I₃/I₀ = 12.5%

A laser used for many applications of hard surface dental work emits 2780-nm wavelength pulses of variable energy (0-300 mJ) about 20 times per second.part a. Determine the number of photons in one 80-mJ pulse.part b. Determine the average power of photons in one 80-mJ pulse during 1 s.
Answer:
a
[tex]n = 1.119 *10^{18} \ photons[/tex]
b
[tex]P = 1.6 \ W[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The wavelength is [tex]\lambda = 2780 nm = 2780 *10^{-9} \ m[/tex]
The energy is [tex]E = 80 mJ = 80 *10^{-3} \ J[/tex]
This energy is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = \frac{n * h * c }{\lambda }[/tex]
Where c is the speed of light with a value [tex]c = 3.0 *10^{8} \ m/s[/tex]
h is the Planck's constant with the value [tex]h = 6.626 *10^{-34} \ J \cdot s[/tex]
n is the number of pulses
So
[tex]n = \frac{E * \lambda }{h * c }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]n = \frac{80 *10^{-3} * 2780 *10^{-9}}{6.626 *10^{-34} * 3.0 *10^{8} }[/tex]
[tex]n = 1.119 *10^{18} \ photons[/tex]
Given that the pulses where emitted 20 times in one second then the period of the pulse is
[tex]T = \frac{1}{20}[/tex]
[tex]T = 0.05 \ s[/tex]
Hence the average power of photons in one 80-mJ pulse during 1 s is mathematically represented as
[tex]P = \frac{E}{T}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]P = \frac{ 80 *10^{-3}}{0.05}[/tex]
[tex]P = 1.6 \ W[/tex]
(4) Use the preliminary observations to answer these questions; Compared to no polarizer or analyzer in the optical path, by what percent does the light intensity decrease when (a) The polarizer is introduced into the optical path? (b) The both polarizer and analyzer are introduced into the optical path?
Answer:
a) I = I₀/2, b) I = I₀/2 cos² θ
Explanation:
To answer these questions, let's analyze a little the way of working of a polarized
* When a non-polarized light hits a polarizer, the electric field that is not in the direction of the polarizer is absorbed, so the transmitted light is
i = I₀ / 2
and is polarized in the direction of the polarizer
* when a polarized light reaches the analyzer it must comply with Malus's law
I = I₁ cos² θ
where the angle is between the polarized light and the analyzer.
With this, let's answer the questions
a) When a polarizer is placed in the non-polarized light path, half of it is absorbed and only the light that has polarization in the direction of the polarizer is transmitted with an intensity of
I = I₀/2
b) when a polarizer and an analyzer are fitted, the intensity of the light transmitted by the analyzer is
I = I₀/2 cos² θ
where the final value depends on the angle between the polarizer and the analyzer.
Let's look at two extreme cases
θ = 0 I = Io / 2
θ = 90º I = 0

A large reflecting telescope has an objective mirror with a 14.0 m radius of curvature. What angular magnification in multiples does it produce when a 3.25 m focal length eyepiece is used? ✕
Answer:
The magnification is [tex]m = -2.15[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The radius is [tex]r = 14.0 \ m[/tex]
The focal length eyepiece is [tex]f_e = 3.25 \ m[/tex]
Generally the objective focal length is mathematically represented as
[tex]f_o = \frac{r}{2}[/tex]
=> [tex]f_o = \frac{14}{2}[/tex]
=> [tex]f_o = 7 \ m[/tex]
The magnification is mathematically represented as
[tex]m = - \frac{f_o }{f_e }[/tex]
=> [tex]m = - \frac{7 }{ 3.25 }[/tex]
=> [tex]m = -2.15[/tex]

The net torque is [tex]\tau = 0.11\ N \cdot m[/tex]
Generally the net torque is mathematically represented as
[tex]\tau = I * \alpha[/tex]
Where [tex]\alpha[/tex] is the angular acceleration so
[tex]\alpha = \frac{\tau }{I}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]\alpha = \frac{0.1 1}{ 0.034}[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 3.235 \ rad/s ^2[/tex]
A) A 2-N force is applied to a spring, and there is displacement of 0.4 m. How much would the spring be displaced if a 5-N force was applied? (1 point)
1 m
4 m
0.08 m
2 m
Answer:
Option (A) : 1m
Explanation:
According to Hooke's law:
F (spring elastic force) =
k( spring const.) * x(displacement)
Case-1
2 N = k * 0.4m
k = 5
Case- 2
5 N = 5 * x
x ( displacement) = 1 m
The displacement of the spring if a 5-N force was applied is equal to 1m. Therefore, option (1) is correct.
What is Hooke's law?The strain and stress are proportional to each other, and this is called Hooke’s Law. Hooke’s law states that the strain is proportional to the stress applied within the elastic limit of the material.
When the materials are stretched, the atoms or molecules deform and when the stress is removed, they will return to their original state.
The mathematical equation for Hooke's law is as follows:
F = –kx
where F is the force, x is displacement, and k is the spring constant in N/m.
Given, F = 2N and x = 0.4m
F = -kx
2 N = - k (0.4m)
k = 5 N/m where the negative sign is omitted.
Now, the spring constant of the spring, k = 5 N/m and F = 5N
F = -kx
5 N = - (5 N/m)(x)
x = - 1m
Therefore, the displacement of the spring is 1 m.

A fisherman in a stream 39 cm deep looks downward into the water and sees a rock on the stream bed. How deep does the stream appear to the fisherman
Answer:
30cm
Explanation:
assume that the eyes are substantially above the water so that sin(theta) is approximately theta.
( small angle approximation).
The point at which a ray leaving the fish hits the surface of the water is x to the side of the centreline and the depth of the water is d
x/d = sin( angle of incidence)
if the apparent depth of the water is h then
x/h = sin( angle of refraction)
and applying snells law
1 sin ( theta air) = 1.33 sin( theta water)
1 * x/h = 1.33 * x/d
d/h = 1.33
or h/d = 1/1.33
h/39 = 1.33
h = 39 /1.33 so that is the apparent depth of the stream assuming:-
1. Your eyes are almost directly overhead
and
2. your eyes are a significant distance above the surface of the water.
x/d = 1.33 x/h
h/d =39/1.3
= 30cm
It's nighttime, and you've dropped your goggles into a 3.2-m-deep swimming pool. If you hold a laser pointer 1.2 m above the edge of the pool, you can illuminate the goggles if the laser beam enters the water 2.0 m from the edge.
How far are the goggles from the edge of the pool?
Answer:
Explanation:
Laser angle with water surface is given by: Tan α = 1/2.0= 0.5/
α = 26.56°
Laser angle with Normal = 90 - 26.56 = 63.44 °
Assuming a red laser, refractive index in water is 1.331.
Angle of refraction in water is given by:
Ref Ind = Sin i / Sin r
1.331 = Sin 63.44 / Sin r
Sin r = 0.8945 / 1.331 = 0.6721
Angle r = 42.22°
For the path in water:
Tan 42.22 = x / 3.2
x = 2.9m where x is the lateral displacement of the laser ince it hits the water
So the goggles are 2.0 + 2.9 = 4.9 m from edge of pool
