A beam of light passes from glass with refractive index 1.58 into water with a refractive index 1.33. The angle of the refracted ray in water is 58.0°. a) Draw a sketch of the situation showing the interface between the media, the normal line, the incident ray, the reflected ray, the refracted ray, and the angles of these rays relative to the normal line. b) Calculate the angle of incidence in the glass.
