- (a) An opaque cylindrical tank with an open top has a diameter of 2.60 m and is completely filled with water. When the afternoon sun reaches an angle of 31.5° above the horizon, sunlight ceases to illuminate any part of the bottom of the tank. How deep is the tank (in m)? 4 Determine how the depth of the tank is related to the angle of refraction for the geometry described in the question. Drawing a diagram may be helpful. Then apply Snell's law to find the angle of refraction and use it to determine the depth of the water in the tank. m (b) What If?
