Answer:
Light's angle of refraction = 37.1° (Approx.)
Explanation:
Given:
Index of refraction = 1.02
Base of refraction = 1
Angle of incidence = 38°
Find:
Light's angle of refraction
Computation:
Using Snell's law;
Sin[Angle of incidence] / Sin[Light's angle of refraction] = Index of refraction / Base of refraction
Sin38 / Light's angle of refraction = 1.02 / 1
Sin[Light's angle of refraction] = Sin 38 / 1.02
Sin[Light's angle of refraction] = [0.6156] / 1.02
Sin[Light's angle of refraction] = 0.6035
Light's angle of refraction = 37.1° (Approx.)
