The light beam in Figure P22.43 strikes surface 2 at the criticalangle. Determine the angle of incidence, Θ1.
A light ray in the core (n 1.40) of a cylindrical optical fiber travels at an angle Θ1 = 49.0° with respect to the axis of the fiber. A ray is transmitted through the cladding (n 1.20) and into the air. What angle Θ2 does the exiting ray make withthe outside surface of the cladding
A fish that is d=d= 2.6 m below the surface looks up and sees a woman fishing from the shore. Part (a)  What angle of incidence (θ1θ1) does the ray from the person’s face make with the perpendicular to the water at the point where the ray enters? The angle of refraction (θ2θ2) between the ray in the water and the perpendicular to the water is 37.1°.   Part (b)  What is the height of the person’s head above the water? Assume the person is standing L=L= 3.2 m away from the point where the incident ray intersects the water.
