Question
63 In Fig. 33-60, light enters a 90°
triangular prism at point P with inci-
dent angle 6, and then some of it
refracts at point Q with an angle of
refraction of 90°. (a) What is the in-
dex of refraction of the prism in
terms of 6? (b) What, numerically,
is the maximum value that the index of refraction can have? Does
light emerge at Q if the incident angle at P is (c) increased slightly
and (d) decreased slightly?
Figure 33-60 Problem 63.
