A beam of light (angle θ₀=16°) inside a transparent material (n=1.4) hits the surface. Notice the change in subscripts of the angles. For example, the refraction angle is θt, for "transmitted", whereas θr is the "reflected" angle. Use the correct quantity, not necessarily the variable name. Calculate the transmitted (refracted) angle.

In Figure (a), a beam of light in material 1 is incident on a boundary at an angle of 28°. The extent to which the light is bent due to refraction depends, in part, on the index of refraction n2 of material 2. Figure (b) gives the angle of refraction 02 versus n2 for a range of possible n2 values, from na = 1.40 to np = 1.97.

Light travels from an unknown transparent material into water, which has refractive index 1.33. When the incident angle is increased to 59.9 degrees, the light starts to experience the total internal reflection (when the refracted angle reaches 90 degrees). What is the refractive index of the unknown material? Enter numerical values only. Keep two decimal places in your answer, i.e., X.XX.
