1. A light ray is incident on the first face of a glass (index of refraction = 1.66) prism that is completely immersed in water (index of refraction = 1.33) as shown in the figure below. The reflected light at the second face is completely polarized parallel to the face. Find the angle of incidence at the first face. incident ray face 1 water 60.0⁰ face 2 30.0⁰
