A pond with a total depth (ice + water) of 2.89 m is covered by a transparent layer of ice, with a thickness of 0.300 m. Calculate the time required for light to travel vertically from the surface of the ice to the bottom of the pond. *I mainly do not understand how to find "n" (the refractive index of ice ) for this problem.
Can you please answer all questions

A pond with a flat bottom has a surface area of 946 m2 and a depth of 2.44 m. On a warm day, the surface water is at a temperature of 25°C, while the bottom of the pond is at 12°C. Find the rate at which energy is transferred by conduction from the surface to the bottom of the pond. The thermal conductivity of water is 0.6 J/s*m*˚C
Ice has formed on a shallow pond, and a steady state has been reached, with the air above the ice at -9.4°C and the bottom of the pond at 4.0°C. If the total depth of ice + water is 1.7 m, how thick is the ice? (Assume that the thermal conductivities of ice and water are 0.40 and 0.12 cal/m·C°·s, respectively.)
A light ray is incident on the horizontal surface of a transparent tank of water at an angle of 50o . a) Find the refraction angle in the water, b) what is the speed of light in water, c) what is the critical angle for total internal reflection for ray going from water back into the air. d) If an object at the bottom of the tank appears 50 cm deep, what is the true depth?
QUESTION If the water is replaced by a transparent fluid with a higher index of refraction, the critical angle of the fluid- air boundary is: O smaller. o the same as for water. o larger PRACTICE IT Use the worked example above to help you solve this problem. (a) Find the critical angle for a water-air boundary if the index of refraction of water is 1.33. (b) Use the result of part (a) to predict what a fish will see...
A lake of area 200km^2 is covered by a slab of ice of unknown thickness. The temperature of air on the outside is 4^0 C and the temperature at the bottom of the lake is 20^0 C. Calculate the thickness of ice if the lake is 20 m water deep. Can you drive your pickup on this lake? K_ice = 2.18W/mK
An ice cube floats in a beaker of ice cold water. Since the water is ice cold, the ice cube is not melting and hence its volume is not changing. The density of water and ice are, respectively, ρw = 1,000 kg/m3 and ρi = 917 kg/m3. (Assume one of the ice cube's faces is parallel to the water's surface.) (a) If the ice cube is 17.0 mm on each side, how far below the surface (in mm) is the...
In winter a lake has a 0.30 m thick ice layer over 1.10 m of water. A light beam from above strikes a spot on the ice, making a 28 ∘ angle with the normal.How far horizontally from that spot does the light ray strike the lake bottom?
In winter a lake has a 0.35 m thick ice layer over 1.10 m of water. A light beam from above strikes a spot on the ice, making a 34 ∘ angle with the normal. Part A How far horizontally from that spot does the light ray strike the lake bottom? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
