Problem
An equilateral prism of flint glass with refractive index μg=23 is placed in water with refractive index μw=34.
(a) At what angle should a ray of light fall on a face of the prism so that, inside the prism, the ray is perpendicular to the bisector of the prism angle?
(b) Through what angle will the ray turn after passing through both faces of the prism?
