The drawing shows a top view of a square room. One wall is missing, and the wall on the right is a mirror. From point P in the center of the open side, a laser is pointed at the mirrored wall. At what angle of incidence must the light strike the right-hand wall so that, after being reflected, the light hits the left corner of the back wall?
A physicist directs a laser beam through a transparent medium, toward one surface of an equilateral prism. (The beam travels, and remains in, the plane of the page.) Incident on Surface 1 at an angle ?1, the beam then encounters Surface 2 from within the prism.
If the angle of incidence at Surface 2 equals ?c , the critical angle for this prism, what is the original incidence angle, ?1 (in degrees)? The critical angle in this case is ?c = 40.5°.

A prism in the shape of an equilateral triangle is shown. The triangle is upside down such that the base of the triangle is at the top of the figure and the apex is at the bottom. A laser beam comes in from the top left, moves down and to the right and is incident on the center of the base of the triangle. This surface is labeled Surface 1. The incident beam makes an angle of ?1 with the vertical. Within the prism, the beam continues to move down and to the right but at a slope which is steeper than the initial beam. It is incident…
Model the Hubble Space Telescope as two spherical mirrors in a Cassegrain configuration, the primary being concave with a radius of curvature of R = 2.0 m and the secondary being convex with a radius of curvature of 0.6 m, separated by a distance of 0.75m. Where is the image plane of stars located after reflecting from both of these mirrors?
