Refractive index of water and polystyreneis

Assignment Help Physics
Reference no: EM13664067

A light ray of wavelength 559 nm is incident at an angleθ on the top surface of a block of polystyrene bounded by water. Discover the maximum value of θ for which the refracted ray will undergo total internal reflection at the left vertical face of the block.(Suppose the refractive index of water is 1.333, and the refractive index of polystyreneis1.457.)
