Chapter 33: Problem 41
A ray of light traveling \(in\) a block of glass (\(n\) = 1.52) is incident on the top surface at an angle of 57.2\(^\circ\) with respect to the normal in the glass. If a layer of oil is placed on the top surface of the glass, the ray is totally reflected. What is the maximum possible index of refraction of the oil?
