Index of refraction-what is the angle of refraction

Reference no: EM13656538

Assume all angles to be exact.

Light passes from medium A into medium B at an angle of incidence of 44 degrees. The index of refraction for A is 1.25 times that of B.

a) What is the angle of refraction? Express your answer using two important figures.

b) What is the ratio of the speed of light in B to the speed of light in A. Express using two important figures?

c) What is the ratio of frequency of light in B to the frequency of light in A? Express using two important figures

d) At what angle of incidence would the light be internally reflected? Express using two important figures
