Textbook Question
Chapter 33, Problem 33.19E
A ray of light is traveling in a glass cube that is totally immersed in water. You find that if the ray is incident on the glass-water interface at an angle to the normal larger than 48.7°, no light is refracted into the water. What is the refractive index of the glass?
