alleryA ray enters a glass slab at 45°. Glass n = 1.5. Angle of refraction inside glass:
A60°
B45°
C30°
Dsin⁻¹(sin 45°/1.5) ≈ 28.1°
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. sin⁻¹(sin 45°/1.5) ≈ 28.1°
**Snell:** 1 × sin 45° = 1.5 × sin r.
sin r = (√2/2)/1.5 ≈ 0.471. r ≈ 28.1°.
Ray bends TOWARD normal (denser medium).
