A beam of light is incident on a hemispherical prism at an angle, theta, as shown in the figure. If the index of refraction of the prism is 1.60, what is the critical angle (in degrees) for no transmitted light out of the bottom of the prism? Assume the index of refraction for air is 1.00 and the index of refraction for the water is 1.33.
