A person swimming underwater on a bright day and lookingup at the surface will see a bright circle surrounded by relativedarkness as in Figure P22.61a, a phenomenon known asSnell’s window. Use the concept of total internal reflectionand the illustration in Figure P22.61b to show that Θ = 97.2°for the cone containing Snell’s window.
