Answer:

Among those two medium, light would travel faster in the one with a reflection angle of $32^{\circ}$ (when light enters from the air.)

Explanation:

Let $v_{1}$ denote the speed of light in the first medium. Let $v_{\text{air}}$ denote the speed of light in the air. Assume that the light entered the boundary at an angle of $\theta_{1}$ to the normal and exited with an angle of $\theta_{\text{air}}$ . By Snell's Law, the sine of $\theta_{1}\!$ and $\theta_{\text{air}}\!$ would be proportional to the speed of light in the corresponding medium. In other words:

$\displaystyle \frac{v_{1}}{v_{\text{air}}} = \frac{\sin(\theta_{1})}{\sin(\theta_{\text{air}})}$ .

When light enters a boundary at the critical angle $\theta_{c}$ , total internal reflection would happen. It would appear as if the angle of refraction is now $90^{\circ}$ . (in this case, $\theta_{\text{air}} = 90^{\circ}$ .)

Substitute this value into the Snell's Law equation:

$\begin{aligned}\frac{v_{1}}{v_{\text{air}}} &= \frac{\sin(\theta_{1})}{\sin(\theta_{\text{air}})} \\ &= \frac{\sin(\theta_{c})}{\sin(90^{\circ})} \\ &= \sin(\theta_{c})\end{aligned}$ .

Rearrange to obtain an expression for the speed of light in the first medium:

$v_{1} = v_{\text{air}} \cdot \sin(\theta_{1})$ .

The speed of light in a medium (with the speed of light slower than that in the air) would be proportional to the critical angle at the boundary between this medium and the air.

For $0 < \theta < 90^{\circ}$ , $\sin(\theta)$ is monotonically increasing with respect to $\theta$ . In other words, for $\!\theta$ in that range, the value of $\sin(\theta)\!$ increases as the value of $\theta\!$ increases.

Therefore, compared to the medium in this question with $\theta_{c} = 27^{\circ}$ , the medium with the larger critical angle $\theta_{c} = 32^{\circ}$ would have a larger $\sin(\theta_{c})$ . such that light would travel faster in that medium.

If we have the angle and magnitude of a vector A we can find its Cartesian components using the following formula

$A_x = |A|cos(\alpha)\\\\A_y = |A|sin(\alpha)$

Where | A | is the magnitude of the vector and $\alpha$ is the angle that it forms with the x axis in the opposite direction to the hands of the clock.
