In the figure below light begins in material 1 with index of refraction ng = 1.21 and makes an angle with the normal (dotted) line of 01= 34° as it strikes material 2. The light then refracts into material 2 with index of refraction n2 = 1.78 and unknown angle of refraction 02. Lastly, the light enters material 3 with unknown index of refraction n3 and makes an angle 03= 26° with the normal line. What is the index of refraction of the bottom material n3? %3D NOTE: Please enter your answer with three significant figures. Do not use scientific notation.

Light travels from material #1 with refractive index n1 and incidence angle θ1 into material #2 with refractive index n2 and refraction angle θ2. Choose the correct statement below. If θ1 < θ2, then material #2 has a larger index of refraction. If θ1 < θ2, then light travels faster in material #1. If θ1 < θ2, then material #2 has a smaller index of refraction. If θ1 < θ2, then material #1 has a smaller index of refraction. If θ1 > θ2, then light travels faster in material #2.
