Chapter 1: Problem 59
A ray of 610 -nm light goes from air into fused quartz at an incident angle of \(55.0^{\circ} .\) At what incident angle must \(470 \mathrm{nm}\) light enter flint glass to have the same angle of refraction?

Get started for freeA parallel beam of light containing orange (610 nm) and violet (410 nm) wavelengths goes from fused quartz to water, striking the surface between them at a \(60.0^{\circ}\) incident angle. What is the angle between the two colors in water?
How can you use total internal reflection to estimate the index of refraction of a medium?
The path of a light beam in air goes from an angle of incidence of \(35^{\circ}\) to an angle of refraction of \(22^{\circ}\) when it enters a rectangular block of plastic. What is the index of refraction of the plastic?
A light beam in air is incident on the surface of a pond, making an angle of \(20^{\circ}\) with respect to the surface. What are the angles of reflection and refraction?
