A light ray traveling in air and parallel to the hypotenuses of a 35°, 55°, 90° prism strikes
the short leg. The short leg has a length of 2.5 cm and the light ray hits the prism 0.5cm
from the right angle. If the glass prism has an index of 1.6,
a. Carefully draw the path the light ray takes through the prism.
b. At what angle (from the normal) does the light ray exit the prism?
A ray of light strikes a flat block of glass at an incidence angle of
?1 = 38.6°.
The glass is 2.00 cm thick and has an index of refraction that equals
ng = 1.52.
a.) The distance d separates the twice-bent ray from the path it would have taken without the glass in the way. What is this distance (in cm)?
b.) At what speed (in m/s) does the light travel within the glass?
c.) How many nanoseconds does the light take to pass through the glass along the angled path shown here?
