Question

A light ray goes through two thick rectangular slabs of glass, each of the same uniform thickness. The first slab has index of refraction n₁ and the second n₂. If n₁ < n₂. How does the original angle of incidence θ_i into the first slab compare to the final angle of refraction θ_f where the ray leaves the second slab going back into air? A) θ_i > θ_f B) θ_i < θ_f C) θ_i = θ_f D) θ_i = (n₁/n₂)θ_f E) more information is needed
