Chapter 32, Problem 57P
(II) A parallel beam of light containing two wavelengths, λ1 = 465 nm and λ2 = 652 nm, enters the silicate flint glass of an equilateral prism as shown in Fig. 32–54. At what angle does each beam leave the prism (give angle with normal to the face)? See Fig. 32–28.

If the apex angle of a prism is $ = 75° (see Fig. 23–63),
what is the minimum incident angle for a ray if it is to emerge
from the opposite side (i.e., not be totally internally
reflected), given n = 1.58?

Problem 77.
(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.
109 In Fig. 34-54, a fish watcher at
point P watches a fish through a
glass wall of a fish tank. The watcher
is level with the fish; the index of re-
fraction of the glass is 8/5, and that Watcher
of the water is 4/3. The distances are
di = 8.0 cm, dz = 3.0 cm, and dz =
6.8 cm. (a) To the fish, how far away
does the watcher appear to be?
(Hint: The watcher is the object.
Light from that object passes
through the wall's outside surface, which acts as a refracting sur-
face. Find the image produced by that surface. Then treat that im-
age as an object whose light passes through the wall's inside sur-
face, which acts as another refracting surface.) (b) To the watcher,
how far away does the fish appear to be?
