A light ray travels inside a horizontal plate of glass, striking its upper surface at an angle of incidence of 50°. This ray is totally internally reflected at the glass-air boundary. A liquid is then poured on top of the glass.
What is the largest index of refraction that the liquid could have such that the ray is still totally internally reflected? The index of refraction of glass is 1.50.
