An infinitely long slab of glass is rotated. A light ray is pointed at the slab such that the ray is kept horizontal. If $\theta$ is the angle the slab makes with the vertical axis, then $\theta$ is changing as per the function \[ \theta(t) = t^2, \]where $\theta$ is in radians. Let the $\emph{glassious ray}$ be the ray that represents the path of the refracted light in the glass, as shown in the figure. Let $\alpha$ be the angle the glassious ray makes with the horizontal. When $\theta=30^\circ$, what is the rate of change of $\alpha$, with respect to time? Express your answer in radians per second (rad/s) to 3 significant figures. Assume the index of refraction of glass to be $1.50$. Note: the second figure shows the incoming ray and the glassious ray in cyan.

A right-triangular wooden block of mass $M$ is at rest on a table, as shown in figure. Two smaller wooden cubes, both with mass $m$, initially rest on the two sides of the larger block. As all contact surfaces are frictionless, the smaller cubes start sliding down the larger block while the block remains at rest. What is the normal force from the system to the table?
