A laser beam travels from air (n=1) into glass (n=1.5) and then into gelatin. The incident ray makes a 58.0o angle with the normal in the air before it enters the glass and a 36.4o angle with the normal after it enters the gelatin. In a neat and organized fashion, write out a solution which includes the following: A sketch of the physical situation with all given physical quantities clearly labeled. Draw a ray diagram showing all reflected and refracted rays in this situation and all angles clearly labeled. Determine (a) the angle the refracted ray makes with the normal in the glass and (b) the index of refraction of the gelatin. Clearly show all steps, starting from generalized equations. Explain your mathematical work in words. Your explanation should cover both what you did and the thought process behind why you did that. Evaluate your answer to determine whether it is reasonable or not. Consider all aspects of your answer (the numerical value, sign, and units) in your evaluation.

A laser beam is directed toward the surface of a block of ice at an angle of 52.0° with respect to the normal (a line perpendicular to the surface at the spot where the ray hits the block). Some of the light is reflected and the rest refracted. What is the angle (in degrees) between the reflected and refracted beams?
Problem 9: A ray of light is incident on an air/water interface. The ray makes an angle of θ1 = 29 degrees with respect to the normal of the surface. The index of the air is n1 = 1 while water is n2 = 1.33. Part (a) Choose an expression for the angle (relative to the normal to the surface) for the ray in the water, θ2. Part (b) Numerically, what is the angle in degrees?
Three sheets of plastic have unknown indices of refraction. Sheet 1 is placed on top of sheet 2, and a laser beam is directed onto the sheets from above so that it strikes the interface at an angle of 26.6deg with the normal. The refracted beam in sheet 2 makes an angle of 31.4deg with the normal. The experiment is repeated with sheet 3 on top of sheet 2 and, with the same angle of incidence, the refracted beam makes an angle of 36.8deg with the normal. If the experiment is repeated again with sheet 1 on top of sheet 3, what is the expected angle of refraction in sheet 3? Assume the same angle of incidence.
