6(b)(i)Refraction Total Internal ReflectionEasy2 marks
Figure 6.2 shows three rays of light travelling from a light source S. The rays travel in glass towards a glass–water boundary.
Figure 6.2, three rays of light from a source S travelling up through glass to a horizontal glass-water boundary, with angles of 25 degrees and 28 degrees marked to normals at the boundary and the shallowest ray labelled ray X; marked NOT TO SCALE
Calculate the refractive index for the glass–water boundary. Use information from Figure 6.2.
