A narrow beam of white light enters a prism made of crown glass at a 45.0° incident angle, as shown in Figure 25.57. At what angles, θ R and θ V , do the red (660 nm) and violet (410 nm) components of the light emerge from the prism? Figure 25.57 This prism will disperse the while light into a rainbow of colors. The incident angle is 45.0°, and the angles at which the red and violet light emerge are θ R and θ V .

A plate of glass (n=1.50) has a thickness of 2.50cm. Light is incident on the glass from air (n=1.00), making an angle of 37 degrees with respect to the normal. How far does the light ray travel in the glass before exiting the opposite side of the plate?
A ray of light strikes a flat glass block at an incidence angle of
?1 = 34.4°.
The glass is 2.00 cm thick and has an index of refraction that equals
ng = 1.20.
A light ray incident on a glass block of thickness 2.00 cm is shown. The ray travels down and to the right and is incident to the top of the block at an angle ?1 to the normal of the surface. The ray inside the block moves down and to the right but at a steeper slope than the incident ray, making an angle of ?2 with the vertical. It is incident on the bottom surface of the block, making an angle of ?3 with the vertical, and exits moving down and to the right, at a less steep slope, making an angle of ?4 with the vertical. A dashed line extends from the original path of the ray down in the block and is shown to be a distance d from the ray that exits the glass block.
