A horizontal, parallel-sided plate of glass having a refractive index of 1.47 is in contact with the surface of water in a tank. A ray coming from above in air makes an angle of incidence of 38.0∘ with the normal to the top surface of the glass. Part A What angle does the ray refracted into the water make with the normal to the surface? Use 1.33 for the index of refraction of water. Express your answer in radians. θ = radians
