A)
Assume that the fish locates the fly at an angle of
45o (with respect to the surface normal). With
respect to the surface normal, at what angle does the light travel
above the water surface?
B)Considering the critical angle of total internal reflection,
what would be a ‘safe’ horizontal distance (the distance of the fly
and the point on the water surface directly above the archer fish)
for the fly?
