4. Light from an aquarium goes from water (n = 4/3)) through a plane of glass (n = 3/2) into air ( n = 1). Assuming it is a monochromatic plane wave and that it strikes the glass at normal incidence, find the minimum and maximum transmission coefficients. You can see the fish clearly; how well can it see you? Ans. From Griffiths equation 9.199, the transmission coefficient for normal incidence is: * With n1=4/3 n2=3/2 and n3=1 * (

ranges from 0 to 1. Letting the term zero gives the maximum transmission coefficient.
Letting the sine term equals to 1 gives the minimum transmission coefficient.
Transmission is about 95% (min/max). Equation 9.199 is invariant. The fish will see you as clear as you see the fish.
