The diagram below shows plane wavefronts incident on a boundary between two media
A and B.
The ratio
refractive index of medium B/ refractive index of medium A is 1.4.
The angle between an incident wavefront and the normal to the boundary is 50
.
(ii) On the diagram above, construct three wavefronts to show the refraction of the
wave at the boundary.
(i) Calculate the angle between a refracted wavefront and the normal to the boundary.
