Solved: In Fig. 33-47a, a light ray in an underlying

Chapter 33, Problem 46

(choose chapter or problem)

In Fig. 33-47a, a light ray in an underlying material is incident at angle 81 on a boundary with water, and some of the light refracts into the water. There are two choices of underlying material. For each, the angle of refraction 82 versus the incident angle 81 is given in Fig. 33-47h. The horizontal axis scale is set by 81s = 90. Without calculation, determine whether the index of refraction of (a) material 1 and (b) material 2 is greater or less than the index of water (n = 1.33). What is the index of refraction of (c) material 1 and (d) material2?
