Can a light ray traveling in air be totally reflected when itstrikes a smooth water surface if the incident angle is chosencorrectly? Explain.
Light traveling through air encounters a glass surface, making an angle of 20° with the normalof the glass surface. How does the the angle of the reflected light 0r, compare to the angle of theincident light 0i?
In dispersive materials, the angle of refraction for a lightray depends on the wavelength of the light. Does the angleof reflection from the surface of the material depend on thewavelength? Why or why not?
