Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Prove that a light ray traveling from air (n1=1.00) into glass (n2=1.5) with an angle of incidence of 45° produces a refracted angle using Snell's Law.

💡 Hint: Start by calculating sin(45) and then isolate sin(r) for the next step.

Question 2

If a ray of light hits a boundary between two media with refractive indices n1=2.0 and n2=1.5 at 60°, will it undergo total internal reflection?

💡 Hint: Use the formula for critical angle \\( \\sin(θ_c) = \\frac{n2}{n1} \\).
