Solution

The transmitted sound beam angle at the interface will refract towards normal incidence. This is because when a wave passes from a medium with a slower propagation speed to a medium with a faster propagation speed, it bends towards the normal (the line perpendicular to the interface between the two media). This is a fundamental principle of wave behavior known as Snell's Law.
