Physics

Light attempts to move from cubic zirconia (n=1.61) to air. In anearby experiment, light is attempting to move from cubic zirconiato water. Finally, in a third trial, light is attempting to movefrom cubic zirconia to a material with an index of refraction of1.62. For the angles of refraction (θcz->air , θcz->water ,θcz->material ) use greater than symbols (>) to rank thesethree angles. (e.g. θ2 > θ2' > θ2\" ) [Remember, the greaterthe refraction, the smaller the refracted angle. So the angleindicating the greatest refraction (i.e. the smallest angle) willbe on the right.]
