Question

As shown in the figure, a light beam travels from air, through olive oil, and then into water. If the angle of refraction ?2 for the light in the olive oil is 34.4, determine the angle of incidence ?1 in air and the angle of refraction ?3 in water. The index of refraction for olive oil is 1.47.

?1 =    ?3 =    As shown in the figure, a light beam travels from air, through olive oil, and then into water. If the angle of refraction ?2 for the light in the olive oil is 34.4 degree , determine the angle of incidence ?1 in air and the angle of refraction ?3 in water. The index of refraction for olive oil is 1.47.

Explanation / Answer

sin A= 1.47 sin 34.4

A=56.15

Also, 1.47 sin 34.4= 1.5 sin W

          W=33.6
