A) 105 kJ
B) 153 kJ
C) 57.3 kJ
D) 47.7 kJ
E) 210 kJ
Question 2
A plastic cube is immersed in water having an index of refraction of 1.33. A laser beam in the plastic strikes the interface at an angle of 14.5 with the normal in the plastic. In the water, this beam makes an angle of 21.8 with the normal.
What is the speed of light in the plastic cube? (c = 3.0 108 m/s)
