Direction: Write the word TRUE if the statement is correct. If the statement is false, write the word which makes it wrong and write the correct answer. Critical angle is the angle of incidence for which the refracted ray emerges tangent to the surface. It is denoted by Ø (A more detailed analysis using Maxwell's equations shows that as the incident angle approaches the critical angle, the transmitted intensity approaches zero.)

A beam of light is incident on a hemispherical prism at an angle, theta, as shown in the figure. If the index of refraction of the prism is 1.60, what is the critical angle (in degrees) for no transmitted light out of the bottom of the prism? Assume the index of refraction for air is 1.00 and the index of refraction for the water is 1.33.
As shown below, light from a vacuum is incident on a shard of Shawtonium (a newly discovered compound). The backside of the shard is up against an unknown material. When the light strikes the backside of the shard, total internal reflection occurs. The light then emerges from the side of the shard and resumes traveling through a vacuum.
