As shown below, light from a vacuum is incident on a shard of Shawtonium (a newly discovered compound). The backside of the shard is up against an unknown material. When the light strikes the backside of the shard, total internal reflection occurs. The light then emerges from the side of the shard and resumes traveling through a vacuum. The index of refraction of Shawtonium is 3.9. Determine the speed of light in Shawtonium, 8, & the upper bound of unknown 68° 39.5° unknown vacuum shard VShawtonium upper bound of 0 = nunknown = x 2
