    The document lists the indices of refraction for several common materials, including air, water, and glass. It then provides two example problems asking for the angle of refracted light rays when passing from air into glass or water at a given angle, where the index of refraction of glass is provided as 1.5.

    Indices of Refraction of Some

    Common Materials
    Materials Index of Refraction
    Air 1.0
    Water 1.33
    Glass 1.50
    PROBLEM1
    PROBLEM2
    A ray of light enters a pane of glass at 50° to the
    horizontal. If the index of refraction of glass is
    1.5, what will the angle of the refracted ray be?
    PROBLEM3
    PROBLEM4

    A light ray passes through the side of a


    glass of water and makes an angle of
    50 deg. With respect to the normal
    line. Find the direction of the reflected
    and refracted rays?
