Given,
h = 1.3 m and d = 2.5 m ; D = 2.1 m
The angle of incidence of light will be given by:
tan = d/h = 2.5/1.3
= 1.923 =>
= tan -1 (
1.923)
= 62.53
degrees.
As the light is travelling from the air into water, we can calculate the angle of refraction using Snell's law.
n1 sin1 = n2
sin
2
1 x sin62.53 = 1.33 x sin 2
2 = 41.84
degrees
Now the horizontal distance from the edge of the pool will be :
L = d + D tan2 = 2.5 + 2.1 x
tan41.84 = 4.38 m
Hence, L = 4.38 m.

In searching the bottom of a pool at night, a watchman shines a narrow beam of light from his flashlight, 1.3 m above the water level, onto the surface of the water at a point d = 2.9 m from his foot at the edge of the pool. Part A Where does the spot of light hit the bottom of the h = 2.4-m-deep pool? Measure from the bottom of the wall beneath his foot.
