Problem

Light travels from water (n=1.33n=1.33) into an unknown transparent medium. The refracted ray bends away from the normal. Which of the following conclusions about the refractive index μ\mu of the unknown medium is correct? a) μ=1.33\mu = 1.33 b) μ≈1.53\mu \approx 1.53 c) μ<1.33\mu < 1.33 d) μ\mu depends only on wavelength, not on direction of bending
