A block of glass with flat sides is surrounded by air a ray


A. A ray of light is incident on a flat reflecting surface and is reflected. If the incident ray makes an angle of 17.9° with the normal to the reflecting surface, what angle does the reflected ray make with the normal?

B.A ray of light traveling in air is incident on the flat surface of a piece of glass at an angle of 65.1° with respect to the normal to the surface of the glass. If the ray refracted into the glass makes an angle of 35.3° with respect to the normal, what is the refractive index of the glass?

C. A block of glass with flat sides is surrounded by air. A ray of light traveling in the glass (refractive index na) is incident on the flat interface with air at the top surface of the block of glass. You observe that no light is refracted into the air if the incident ray in the glass has an angle of incidence (measured relative to the normal to the surface of the glass) greater than 35.3°. What is the refractive index of the glass?
