Answer:

Explanation:  Trajectory of the curve is shown by dotted curve the slope of the target at point B

Tan Ф= dy /dx

The angle of incidence at B is Ф = 90- Ф

Tan Ф = tan (90- Ф) = cot Ф= dy /dx

From snell law at A and B

1 sin 90 = n(y) sin Ф

sin Ф= 1/n (y) = {1/ ky ³/² +1 }1/2

cos Ф= √1-sin ²Ф= √1-{ 1/ky³/² + 1 }1/2

cot Ф= k 1/2 y ³/4

Applying boundary condition

x= 0, y=0, c=0

4y 1/4 =√kx

y 1/4 = (√kx

y = k²(x/4 )⁴
