A beam of light fell on a polished plane of mica where it made an angle of (31.25° ) with the perpendicular to the flat surface, so if you know that the beam consists of two wavelengths, the first is (2 =404.7m ) and its refractive index in mica is equal to (1.4697 ) and the second is (1 =508.6m )and its refractive index in mica is equal to (1.4697 ), mathematically find the angle between the two refracted rays, if you know that the refractive index of air is equal to (1.0003 ).
