Need Help!
Question 6, part (a)
First variant .... i would be glad if you tell me the procedure...
and if you want the formula it is ----> refractive index= sin i/ sin r :)

the refractive index is given as 1.49 in the part (b) ....and when you go back to the Image the INDEX angle is 30 degree ,and the refractive angle is UNKNOWN...use the formula as follows:

1.49 = sin 30 / sin r

sin r *1.49 = sin 30

r = sin-1 [ sin 30 / 1.49 ]

the sin-1 is done by pressing shift and then sin on the calculator ;)

and you'll get the answer =]

n = sinr/sini OR n = sini/sinr in any form
sinr/sin30 = 1.49 OR sinr = 1.49 × sin30
48.1°

^ This is from the mark scheme.

The answer should be that found by you, because when it escapes from the prism, it will have a greater speed and therefore the refractive index will be low.

Can you tell me why are they multiplying, when the formula is n = sin i/ sin r :-|

Because the mark sheet says, that the candidate can take it in any form, but the reason is that which I mentioned above.

Remember this::

From rarer to denser medium.

(AIR  to  GLASS)

n = sin i / sin r

...

From denser to rarer.

(GLASS  to  AIR)

sin r / sin i
