In Figure, light is incident at angle 6,=40.1° on a boundary between two transparent materials. Some of the light travels down through the next three layers of transparent materials, while some of it reflects upward and then escape into the air. If n;=1.3, n;= 1.4,, n3=1.32, and n,= 1.45, what is the value of Air (a) 0, and (b) 04?
