A ray of light traveling water is incident on an interface with a flat piece of glass. The wavelength of the light in the water (nwater = 1.333) is 726 nm and its wavelength in the glass is 544 nm. If the ray in water makes an angle of 56° with respect to the normal to the interface, what angle does the refracted ray in the glass make with respect to the normal? А. 25.4° С. 43.8° В. 38.4° D. 54.2°
