1. A truck carrying cooking oil and glass crashes into a pond creating a 2cm thick layer of oil with index of refraction
1. A truck carrying cooking oil and glass crashes into a pond creating a 2cm thick layer of oil with index of refraction 1.47 on top of the water with index of refraction 1.33. At the bottom of the 10m pond is a 3.5cm thick pane of glass with index of refraction 1.52. A police officer investigating the scene shines a red light with a vacuum wavelength 650nm onto the layer of oil; this light ray makes an angle of 32° with respect to the normal vector. Assume the boundaries of each substance are horizontal and thus parallel to one another. (a) What is the angle of reflection and refraction this light ray makes when it strikes the boundary between the air and oil? (b) What is the angle of reflection and refraction this light ray makes when it strikes the boundary between the oil and water? (C) What is the angle of reflection and refraction this light ray makes when it strikes the boundary between the oil and air? (The light ray reflected off of the water will again strike the interface between the air and oil this time passing from the oil into the air.) () What is the angle of reflection and refraction this light ray makes when it strikes the boundary between water and glass? (e) What is the angle of reflection and refraction this light ray makes when it strikes the boundary between water and oil? (f) What is the frequency wavelength, and speed of the light ray in each substance, air, oil, water, and glass?
