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. The index of refraction of Shawtonium is 1.8. Determine 0₁ & 0₂. vacuum 0₁ = 0₂ = unknown 8₂ shard 71° 36° 01...

A person swimming underwater on a bright day and looking up at the surface will see a bright circle surrounded by relative darkness as in figure (a) below, a phenomenon known as Snell's window. Use the concept of total internal reflection and the illustration in figure (b) to show that ? = 97.2° for the cone containing Snell's window. (Submit a file with a maximum size of 1 MB.) HINT

A concave mirror has the focal length equal to 0.609 m. To form a real image that is triple the size of the object on a screen, at what distance in front of the mirror should the screen be placed (in m; answer a positive number)?
Consider a layer of Oil, Glass, and Air where the oil/glass boundary is parallel to the glass/air boundary. Let the index of refraction for the glass be 1.48 and the index of refraction for the oil to be 1.25. At what angle relative to the normal should a ray of light be directed upon the oil/glass interface such that it strikes the glass/air interface at the critical angle?
Consider a mirror lying along the x-axis in R2. A laser starts at the point (−2, 6) and is fired in the direction of ⟨4, −3⟩. The beam travels until it hits the mirror, where it reflects off the mirror and then travels until it hits a wall on the line x = 20. (a) Give a parametrization for the initial path of the laser. (b) At what point does this beam hit the mirror? (c) Give a parametrization for the path of the reflected beam. (d) At what point does this beam hit the wall?
