6. A layer of water of refractive index 4/3 is on top of a layer of glass of refractive index 3/2. A ray is incident at angle of 50.0° on the water surface. 50% air water glass Draw the path of the ray until it emerges from the bottom surface of the glass. Clearly mark the appropriate angles in water, glass, and air.
