Math Problem Statement
A beam of light is shone through the new plastic (from the previous question) at a 30o angle from the normal. Assume that we are testing this new plastic in a vacuum chamber. Using your knowledge of the refractive index from the previous question, which diagram most accurately represents how the light will be refracted in the new plastic?
