A block of crown glass is immersed in water as in the figure shown below. A light ray is incident on the top face at an angle of ?1 = 37.8° with the normal and exits the block at point P. (Assume that x = 3.81 cm.) A block is immersed in water. A ray starts in the water at the top of the image and moves down and to the right before it is incident on the top surface of the block at an angle ?1 to the vertical at a distance x from the right side of the block. The ray refracts to have a steeper slope than the incident ray, and extends down and to the right to point P on the right side of the block, where point P is a vertical distance y from the top of the block. The ray exits the block at a steeper angle than it was within the block, and at an angle ?2 to the horizontal.
