A beam of light in air is incident at an angle of 30º to the surface of a rectangular block of clear plastic (n = 1.46). The light beam first passes through the block and re-emerges from the opposite side into air at what angle to the normal to that surface?

θ = 30°

Explanation:

Firts, the angle when the beam of light passes through the block cam be calculated using Snell Law:

Where:

n₁: is the index of refraction of the incident medium (air) = 1

θ₁: is the incident angle = 30°

n₂: is the medium 2 (plastic) = 1.46

θ₂: is the transmission angle

Hence, θ₂ is:

Now, when the beam of light re-emerges from the opposite side, we have:

n₁: is the index of refraction of the incident medium (plastic) = 1.46  

θ₁: is the incident angle = 20.03°                

n₂: is the medium 2 (air) = 1

θ₂: is the transmission angle

Hence, the angle to the normal to that surface (θ₂) is:

Therefore, we have that the beam of light will come out at the same angle of when it went in, since, it goes from air and enters to a plastic medium and then enters again in this medium to go out to air again. This was proved using the Snell Law.    

I hope it helps you!                

i guess that visual aids present persuasive examples to what you are presenting, some factors would be theme (does it fit with the color, information, what you are presenting), size (can you see it, is it a big enough span of data/information), and overall look of the visual aid.

hope this : )
