Q2-12 An angle beam produce a 45° shear wave in steel, what is the incident<br />

angle? (V s <strong>for</strong> steel=0.125in/ms, V L <strong>for</strong> plastid=0.105in/ms)<br />

Answer: Snell’s Law; ϴ incident = Sin -1 [(0.105/0.125) xSin45] = 36.43°<br />

Q2-13 Aluminum rod 6” diameter being examined in immersion technique,<br />

what is the required offset to generate a 45° refracted shear wave?<br />

Answer: First find the incident angle using Snell’s Law<br />

ϴ incident = Sin -1 [(1.5/3.1) xSin45] = 20°<br />

Offset = rSin20 = 3Sin20 = 1.026”
