A beam of light in air is incident on a stack of four flat transparent materials with indicies of refraction 1.20, 1.40, 1.32 and 1.28. If the able of incidence for the beam on the first four materials is 60.0°, what angle does the beam make with the normal when it emerges into the air after passing through the entire stack
A layer of ice having parallel sides floats on water. If light isincident on the upper surface of the ice at an angle of incidenceof 30.0°, what is the angle of refraction in the water?
