A laser beam enters a 12.5 cm thick glass window at an angle of 43.0° from the normal. The index of refraction of the glass is 1.47. At what angle from the normal does the beam travel through the glass? Submit Answer Tries 0/10 How long does it take the beam to pass through the plate? Submit Answer Tries 0/10
