The index of refraction is 1.45. The thickness of a flint glass plate is 10 cm thick. A ray of incident light strikes the upper surface at angle 0 = 65 degrees, with respect to the normal direction. Some of the light passes through the glass and exits through the lower surface. What is the lateral displacement of the ray where it emerges from the lower surface?

Air has an index of refraction of 1.00. Water has an index of refraction of 1.33. Consider a pool of water that is perfectly calm and 3.21 meters deep. A ray of light (or a laser beam, if you like) enters the water, refracts, and ultimately hits the bottom of the pool. Find the distance between the point where the light enters the water and the point where the light hits the bottom of the pool if the angle between the ray in air and the surface of the pool is 46.4 degrees. Answer in meters.
A ray of light crosses the boundary between some substance with n = 1.54 and air, going from the substance into air. If the angle of incidence is 29◦ what is the angle of refraction? Calculate to 1decimal.

White light enters flint glass from air (n₁ = 1). The angle of incidence is 8, = 63 degrees. Due to dispersion in the glass, the index of refraction for red light is 1.662, while the index for violet light is 1.698. Due to this difference, the violet and red parts of white light are refracted by different amounts. What is the difference in refraction angle (AO) between violet and red fin this situation?

Using filters, a physicist has created a beam of light consisting of three wavelengths: 400 nm (violet), 500 nm (green), and 650 nm (red). She aims the beam so that it passes through air and then enters a block of crown glass. The beam enters the glass at an incidence angle of ?1 = 31.5°. The glass block has the following indices of refraction for the respective wavelengths in the light beam. wavelength (nm) 400 500 650 index of refraction n400 nm = 1.53 n500 nm = 1.52 n650 nm = 1.51 (a) Upon entering the glass, are all three wavelengths refracted equally, or is one bent more than the others?

Light in a vacuum is incident on a transparent glass slab. The angle of incidence is 31.1° . The slab is then immersed in a pool of liquid. When the angle of incidence for the light striking the slab is 24.8°, the angle of refraction for the light entering the slab is the same as when the slab was in a vacuum. What is the index of refraction of the liquid?
In the figure, light is incident at angle θ1 = 37˚ on a boundary between two transparent materials. Some of the light travels down through the next three layers of transparent materials, while some of it reflects upward and then escapes into the air.

A glass optical fiber is used to transport a light ray across a long distance. The fiber has an index of refraction of 1.520 and is submerged in ethyl alcohol, which has an index of refraction of 1.361. What is the critical angle (in degrees) for the light ray to remain inside the fiber?
Light is incident normally on the short face of a 30-60-90° prism. A drop of liquid is placed on the hypotenuse of the prism. If the index of refraction of the prism is 1.56, find the maximum index that the liquid may have for the light to be totally reflected.
A beam of light is incident from the air on a transparent substance at an angle of 56 with respect to the normal, part of the beam is reflected and the other is refracted. It is observed that the reflected and refracted beams are mutually perpendicular. What is the refractive incidence of the transparent substance? What can you say about the reflected beam? Since you know both indices of refraction, suppose a light beam is incident from the medium with the higher index of refraction to the medium with the lower index of refraction. What is the critical angle to achieve total internal reflection?
