What is the angle of refraction when a ray of light passes from ethanol to air if the incident angle is 34°? The refractive index of ethanol is 1.36 and of air is 1.00.


A.21

B.34

C.49

D.66

Verified Answer :

This problem can be solved using Snell's law: " n1 sin theta1 = n2 sin theta2"

Given:

n1 = 1.36
theta1 = 34 degrees

n2 = 1.00
theta2 = ?

1.36 sin(34) = 1 sin (theta2)
angle of refraction = 49.51 degrees

Among the choices, the correct answer is C.
