Final answer:
When light passes from one medium to another, it changes direction. The amount of refraction depends on the angle at which the light enters the second medium. To find the angles of refraction, we need to know the refractive indices of the glass for red and blue light.
Step-by-step explanation:
When light passes from one medium to another, it changes direction. This change in direction is called refraction. The amount of refraction depends on the angle at which the light enters the second medium.
The formula to calculate the angle of refraction is given by Snell's Law: n1 * sin(θ1) = n2 * sin(θ2), where n1 and n2 are the refractive indices of the two mediums, and θ1 and θ2 are the angles of incidence and refraction, respectively.
In this case, the question asks for the difference in refraction angles (θblue - θred) when light of both colors (red and blue) strikes the glass from air at an angle of incidence of 32.25º.
To find the angles of refraction, we need to know the refractive indices of glass for red and blue light. Without that information, we cannot provide a numerical answer. However, we can explain the concept of refraction and how to calculate the angles in general terms.
