A light whose wavelength is equal to 450 nm in a vacuum penetrates a glass sample. The refractive index of the glass is equal to 1.45. Determine the speed of light in the glass. Calculate the measure of the angle of refraction of the light in the glass, if the angle of incidence measures 40.0 degrees.
