OPTICS
Mirrors and lenses are simple optical instruments through which practical
applications of reflection and refraction of light are obtained. In the case of
mirrors are polished surfaces that produce a specular reflection: All rays are
reflected in the same direction and provide clear images of objects.
In case the surface is irregular, the rays of light scatter in all directions which
indicates that it does not provide clear images.
Application in Lenses
With all this began to use this breakthrough for the creation of objects such as
microscope, telescope, and lenses to improve vision, among others.
SONIDO
In the propagation of sound, the laws of wave reflection are also fulfilled, that
is, î = ^ r, which have already been seen on the surface of water and which
can be seen when studying geometric optics. Only that we do not see them
here, but we do perceive them, above all, as long as the wavelength of the
reflected vibration is less than the largest of the dimensions of the flat object
on which it is reflected.
ADVANTAGE
Using the right materials, the sound can be totally absorbed and not disturb the
neighbors.

i-> incident angle (is the angle formed by the incident ray with the normal N).
t-> transmitted angle (is the angle formed by the transmitted ray with the
normal N).
n1-> indicates the refractive index of the first medium.
n2-> shows the refractive index of the second medium.
From the above equation, it follows that when n2 <n1 there is an angle of
incidence, called the limit angle, from which no refraction-> Total reflection.
RESPUESTA
It must be taken into account that the refractive index of water is n = 1.5, taking into account this we find
the critical angle for water:
𝑛1 1
𝑆𝑒𝑛(𝜃𝑐 ) = = = 0.666
𝑛2 1.5
𝜃𝑐 = 𝑆𝑒𝑛−1 (0.666) = 41.8°
Taking the angle you get a trigonometric relationship between depth and distance, which is why:
𝑑1
= 𝑇𝑎𝑛𝜃1
