Answer:

Yes, It is contaminated and radio active

Explanation:

The coolant in the primary loop is actually in contact with the reactor fuel. So it will have some trace amount of the reactor fuel and all the other radioactive by products like cobalt.

Also the neutrons in the reactor will convert the hydrogen in the water into radioactive tritium. and the oxygen into radioactive nitrogen.

This is why the primary loop water is kept isolated from the feed water.

At which angle must a laser beam enter the water for no refraction to occur?
abruzzese [7]

Light that enters the new medium <em>perpendicular to the surface</em> keeps sailing straight through the new medium unrefracted (in the same direction).

Perpendicular to the surface is the "normal" to the surface. So the angle of incidence (angle between the laser and the normal) is zero, and the law of refraction (just like the law of reflection) predicts an angle of zero between the normal and the refracted (or the reflected) beam.

Moral of the story:  If you want your laser to keep going in the same direction after it enters the water, or to bounce back in the same direction it came from when it hits the mirror, then shoot it <em>straight on</em> to the surface, perpendicular to it.
