(II) An aquarium filled with water has flat glass sides whose
index of refraction is 1.54. A beam of light from outside
the aquarium strikes the glass at a 43.5° angle to the
perpendicular (Fig. 23–56). What is the angle of this light
ray when it enters (a) the glass, and
then (b) the water? (c) What would be
the refracted angle if the ray entered
the water directly?

Problem 32.
(b)
When light is incident on an interface between two materials with different index of
refraction, the angle of the refracted ray depends on the wavelength. However, the angle
of the reflected ray does not depend on the wavelength at all. Explain why this happens.
(i) State the laws of refraction of light.
(ii) Write a relation between the angle of incidence (i), angle of emergence (e), angle of prism (A) and angle of deviation (d) for a ray of light passing through an
equilateral prism.
