A slab of material 1 rests on the surface of a slab of material 2 . A light ray in material 1 has an angle of incidence of 30 on the interface between the materials, while the ray in material 2 has an angle of refraction of 45. What is the critical angle of incidence for total internal reflection for a ray of light going from material 2 to material 1?
 a. 30
  b. 45
  c. In this case there is no critical angle.
  d. At least one of the indices of refraction or its equivalent is needed to solve this problem.

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt. For the upper point of his scale, he used 96°, which he measured as normal human body temperature (we know it to be 98.6° today because of more accurate thermometers).
