When the afternoon Sun reaches an angle of 28.0° above the horizon, sunlight ceases to illuminate the bottom of the tank. How deep is the tank? 30. A certain kind of glass has an index of refraction of 1.650 for blue light of wavelength 430 nm and an index of 1.615 for red light of wavelength 680 nm. If a beam containing these two colors is incident at an angle of 30.00° on a piece of this glass, what is the angle between the two beams inside the glass?
