What is the direction of propagation of the light as it


In vacuum, the wavelength of the light in your laser pointer is 538 nm. Standing at the shore of a calm pond, you shine the laser beam onto the water surface at an angle of 60 ° from the normal to the surface. The index of refraction for the water is n = 1.333.
