Modeling) Fish's View of the WorldThe figure shows a fish’s view of the world above the surface of the water (Source: Walker. J., "The Amateur Scientist." Scientific American.) Suppose that a light ray comes from the horizon, enters the water, and strikes the fish’s eye.
Assume that this ray gives a value of 90° for
Refer to Exercise 83. Suppose an object is located at a true angle of 29.6° above the horizon. Find the apparent angle above the horizon to a fish.
