"The drawing shows three layers of different materials, with air above and below the layers. The interfaces between the layers a

re parallel. The index of refraction of each layer is given in the drawing. Identical rays of light are sent into the layers, and light zigzags through each layer, reflecting from the top and bottom surfaces. The index of refraction for air is nair = 1.00. For each layer, the ray of light has an angle of incidence of 72.8˚. For the cases in which total internal refection is possible from either the top or bottom surface of a layer, determine the amount by which the angle of incidence exceeds the critical angle."

Answer:

Angle of incidence that entered material b= 63.1°

Angle of incidence between a and b = 55.9°

Explanation: Using the formular:

n1sintheta1= n2sintheta2

The light ray which enters material B will be

1.4Sin72.8° = 1.5Sin theta

1.3373= 1.5Sintheta

sintheta = 1.3373/1.5

Sin^-1 0.8916 = Theta

63.1 = theta

When the ray hits interface with material a

1.5Sin63.1 = 1.3 Sin theta

1.3374 = 1.3Sin theta

Sintheta= 1.3374/1.3

Sin theta = 1.0877

There will be total reflection off the boundary b c because sin theta exceeded 1 in value.

The equation should be

1.4sin63.1 = 1.4 sin theta

Sin theta=72.8°

When the ray hits air-c boundary:

1.4sin72.8=1.00sin theta

Sin theta=1.3374/1 =1.3374

There is total reflection.

In material a,the ray will:

1.3sin72.8° = 1.00sin theta

There will be total reflection when the ray hits a-b boundary.

1.3sin72.8= 1.5sintheta

Sin theta= 1.2419/ 1.5

Sin theta =0.8279

Theta= Sin^-10.8279= 55.88°

When ray hits c-air boundary

1.4sin63.1= 1.00sintheta

1.2485= sin theta = Toal reflection.

Therefore when the ray of light pass through the layers of material a, b and c the boundary with air on top and bottom will be total reflection.

Look at the graph
viva [34]
Here, Carefully look at the graph.
When it is on x=10, it is approximately 10, (slightly less than 10)
Closest value would be 90, so y/x = 90/10 = 9 

So, the density of the graph would be 9 g/cm³

In short, Your Answer would be Option D

Hope this helps!
