To solve the problem step by step, we will analyze the situation involving the refraction of light from a liquid to air, using Snell's law and differentiation to find the angular speed of the refracted beam. ### Step 1: Understand the Setup We have a ray of light traveling from a liquid with refractive index \( \mu \) to air. The incident angle \( \theta \) is given as \( 30^\circ \). We need to find the angular speed of the refracted beam when the incident beam is rotating at a rate \( \omega \). ### Step 2: Apply Snell's Law Using Snell's law: \[ ...
