A ray of light strikes a thick sheet of glass (n = 1.5)at an angle of 25 $\degree$with the normal.Find the angle of the refracted ray within the glass with respect to the normal.
A)56 $\degree$
B)46 $\degree$
C)25 $\degree$
D)16 $\degree$

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Using Snell's Law, n1 * sin(theta1) = n2 * sin(theta2), where n1 = 1 (air), theta1 = 25°, and n2 = 1.5 (glass). Solving for theta2 gives approximately 16°.
