A ray of light travels through air until it strikes theinterface between the air and another medium. The incident raymakes an angle of π1 = 41.0Β°with thenormal, as shown in the figure below. Upon passage into the secondmedium, the ray is refracted, emerging from the interface at anangle π2with respect to the normal.
a.Suppose that the second medium is ice. What is the angleof refraction, π2(in degrees)? (Enter your answerto at least one decimal place.)
b.uppose that the second medium is fused quartz. What isthe angle of refraction, π2, in this case (indegrees)? (Enter your answer to at least one decimal place.)
c.Finally, suppose that the second medium is ethyl alcohol.What is the angle of refraction, π2, in thiscase (in degrees)? (Enter your answer to at least one decimalplace.)
