Transcribed Image Text:A light ray in glass arrives at the glass-water interface an angle of 0 = 45° with the normal. The refracted ray
in water makes an angle = 75° angle with the normal, as shown in the figure. The index of refraction of
water is 1.33. The angle of incidence is now changed to 0 = 25°. What is the new angle of refraction in the
water?

- A ray of light travels through air until it strikes the interface between the air and another medium. The incident ray makes an angle of ?1 = 34.0° with the normal, as shown in the figure below. Upon passage into the second medium, the ray is refracted, emerging from the interface at an angle ?2 with respect to the normal. A light ray in air is moving down and to the right and is incident on a second medium. It makes an angle ?1 with the vertical. Inside the vertical, it continues to move down and to the right but at a steeper slope than the incident ray. It makes an angle ?2 with the vertical.
