The light enters a glass prism with 90? triangular cross section through one cathetus at point P with incident angle θ (measured with respect to surface normal), and then some of it refracts at point Q on the other cathetus with an angle of refraction of 90?. The prism is immersed in air. (a) What is the index of refraction np of the prism material expressed in terms of θ? (b) What, numerically, is the maximum value that the index of refraction can have? Does light emerge at Q if the incident angle at Q is (c) increased slightly and (d) decreased slightly?Thank you so much! :)Best RegardsLB
