A ray of light traveling from glass into ethyl alcohol is incident at the boundary at an angle of incidence 30\(^o\). Calculate the angle of refraction.
[Refractive index of glass =1.5; refractive index of ethyl alcohol = 1.36]
A 60kg man stands on a weighing balance in an elevator. If the elevator accelerates upwards at 5ms\(^{-2}\), determine the reading of the scale. [g = 10ms\(^{-2}\)]
