Problem

An ultrashort laser pulse enters an unknown liquid from air at normal incidence, travels 2.00 m2.00\,\text{m} through the liquid, and exits into a block of crown glass (n=1.52n = 1.52). The transit time through the liquid is 9.0 ns9.0\,\text{ns}. Immediately before entering the glass the light ray makes an angle of 25∘25^{\circ} with the normal to the interface. Which of the following is the angle of the refracted ray inside the glass? (a) 29∘29^{\circ} (b) 22∘22^{\circ} (c) 19∘19^{\circ} (d) 12∘12^{\circ}
