Question

Suppose the figure below represents a ray of light going from air through crown glass into water, such as going into a fish tank. Calculate the amount the ray is displaced by the glass (Δx), given that the incident angle is 47∘ and the glass is 0.9 cm thick. The refractive index of glass is 1.52.

 

1. Suppose the figure below represents a ray of light going from air through crown glass into water,
such as going into a fish tank. Calculate the amount the ray is displaced by the glass (Ax), given that
the incident angle is 47 ° and the glass i 0.9 cm thick. The refractive index of glass is 1.52.
Amount of ray displacement, Ax:
mm
