A Light Ray in Glass Arrives at the Glass-Water Interface θ=48∘\theta = 48 ^ { \circ }

Question 101

Multiple Choice

A light ray in glass arrives at the glass-water interface an an angle of θ=48∘\theta = 48 ^ { \circ } with the normal. The refracted ray in water makes an angle ϕ=72∘\phi = 72 ^ { \circ } angle with the normal, as shown in the figure. The index of refraction of water is 1.331.33 . The angle of incidence is now changed to θ=37∘\theta = 37 ^ { \circ } . What is the new angle of refraction ϕ\phi in the water?
