A light ray incident on a block of glass makes an incident angle of 50.0° with the normal to the surface. The refracted ray in the block makes an 36.1° with the normal. What is the index of refraction of the glass?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The index of refraction of the glass is 1.3

Explanation:

Given data:

i = incident angle = 50°

r = refracted angle = 36.1°

The index of refraction according Snell´s law is:

[tex]n=\frac{1*sini}{sinr} =\frac{1*sin50}{sin36.1} =1.3[/tex]
