Oct 25, 2015 at 15:40 comment added CuriousOne The question is about calculating the total internal reflection at the water surface and what that means for the ability of the diver to see what's happening above. You are required to assume a perfectly flat water surface, of course, otherwise ripples will allow the diver to see more than just this circle (even though his vision will be greatly distorted).
