If a ray of light enters the prism hypotenuse-face at 0° incident angle, then the minimum index of refraction of the prism for which the ray totally internally reflects at each of the two sides making the right angle will be given by: air 45° n = ? 450 ----- O n = 1.351 O n = 1.414 n = 1.150 n = 1.326 n = 1.273 A ray of light is incident normally on one of the faces of a prism of index of refraction n = 1.57. The ray emerges out of the prism with an angle of refraction 0 equal to: 50° Nair = 1 n a 24.0° 21.4° 22.7° 26.8° 20.2° If a ray of light enters the prism hypotenuse-face at 0° incident angle, then the minimum index of refraction of the prism for which the ray totally internally reflects at each of the two sides making the right angle will be given by: air 45° n = ? 450 ----- O n = 1.351 O n = 1.414 n = 1.150 n = 1.326 n = 1.273 A ray of light is incident normally on one of the faces of a prism of index of refraction n = 1.57.
