You have both angles, you have one of the indexes of refraction

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

I need help still haha Im not sure about this whole problem

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Look at trial 2. It gives you theta 1 and theta 2 I don't know what your index of refraction #1 is, the table of data is confusing.

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Plug numbers into the formula i gave earlier and solve. Plug in whatever you think the index of refraction is cos idk.

OpenStudy (jtvatsim):

Can you tell us where this data is coming from? Is this data something you did in a lab, or is this out of a textbook, or...?

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

I think the index n1 is the 1.2723. Plug that and the angles into the formula.

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

https://www.math.ubc.ca/~cass/courses/m309-01a/chu/Fundamentals/snell01.gif theta 1 is 40 theta 2 is 28.9 n1 is 1.2723 do math and find n2

@agent0smith

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Show work. What you wrote made no sense. That isn't an equation. None of the values should be negative. You need a real calculator.

OpenStudy (ineedhelplz):

I don't understand what you need @iwanttogotostanford
