. a. A ray of light enters a fiber optic cable with index of refraction n from air at an angle as shown below. Let the angle 0 be 69°. For total internal reflection to occur at the cable- air interface, what must be the value of n? n=1.3 nair = 1 Bd OR 8 n Think & Prepare You have three unkowns in this problem, the angle of refraction R, the angle of refraction and n. 1. Set-up Snell's Law equation relating 6, R, and n. 2. Set-up the critical angle relationship between cand n 3.0+0=? sine 4. You may need some trigonometric identities such as sin (90° - 0) = ? and = 2. cose b. In the problem above, the angle e increases. How does this affect what n must be to ensure total internal reflection? A) n will decrease because the critical angle will become larger B) n will decrease becuase the equation for the critical angle is proportional to 1/n of the material C) n will increase because the critical angle will become smaller D) n will increase becuase the equation for the critical angle is…

Use the exact values you enter to make later calculations.A ray of light strikes a flat, 2.00-cm-thick block of glass (n = 1.96) at an angle of ? = 32.4° with respect to the normal (see figure below). A light ray incident on a glass block of thickness 2.00 cm is shown. The ray travels down and to the right and is incident to the top of the block at an angle ? to the normal of the surface. The ray inside the block moves down and to the right but at a steeper slope than the incident ray. It is incident on the bottom surface of the block and exits moving down and to the right, in the same direction as the incident ray. A dashed line extends from the original path of the ray down in the block and is shown to be a distance d from the ray that exits the glass block.
