Question 292786: A thermopane window is constructed with 2 parallel pieces of glass, each of which reflects half of the sunlight that hits it from either side. The other half of the sunlight passes through the pane. What percent of incoming sunlight passes through both panes? Answer by richwmiller(17219) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The first pane allows 1/2 through
1/2*1/2=1/4 through the second so 25% passes through both panes.
