n_1 = the refractive index of water = (4/3)  n_2  = the refractive index of air = 1  n_1  sin i = n_2  sin r  (4/3) sin i = 1 sin 90°  sin i = (3/4)  ⇒  i = 48.6°    tan i = (((1/2)d)/2)  tan 48.6° = (1/4)d   d = 4 × tan 48.6 = 4.54 m
$$\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{1}} =\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{refractive}\:\mathrm{index}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{water}\:=\:\frac{\mathrm{4}}{\mathrm{3}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{2}} \:=\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{refractive}\:\mathrm{index}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{air}\:=\:\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{1}} \:\mathrm{sin}\:\mathrm{i}\:=\:\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{2}} \:\mathrm{sin}\:\mathrm{r} \\ $$$$\frac{\mathrm{4}}{\mathrm{3}}\:\mathrm{sin}\:\mathrm{i}\:=\:\mathrm{1}\:\mathrm{sin}\:\mathrm{90}° \\ $$$$\mathrm{sin}\:\mathrm{i}\:=\:\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{4}}\:\:\Rightarrow\:\:\mathrm{i}\:=\:\mathrm{48}.\mathrm{6}° \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$\mathrm{tan}\:\mathrm{i}\:=\:\frac{\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{tan}\:\mathrm{48}.\mathrm{6}°\:=\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4}}\mathrm{d}\: \\ $$$$\mathrm{d}\:=\:\mathrm{4}\:×\:\mathrm{tan}\:\mathrm{48}.\mathrm{6}\:=\:\mathrm{4}.\mathrm{54}\:\mathrm{m} \\ $$
