I have a tanning canopy that has a 20 amp male plug with the one blade at a 90 degree angle can I cut the plug and put on a standard three prong plug?

Can you change the plug? Yes. Should you change the plug? NO!!! The 20 Amp plug is just that a 20 amp plug. The plug you want to change to is a 15 amp plug. The ramifications are pretty easy to understand. The 20 amp load will overload the receptacle for sure, and likely will overload the branch wiring and circuit breaker if they were designed for 15 amps. This could cause at the least your home wiring to get brittle and eventually short out. It could also cause a circuit failure, leading up all the way up to a fire. My recommendation is to move the canopy to a 20 Amp plug or have a licensed electrician install the proper breaker, wiring and receptacle. See view discussion below.

How the angle of incidence affects the degree of bending of light in a semicircle prism?
The angle of incidence affects the degree of bending of light in a semicircular prism by determining the angle of refraction as the light enters and exits the prism. A larger angle of incidence will result in a greater angle of refraction, causing the light to bend more as it passes through the prism. The relationship between the angle of incidence and the angle of refraction is determined by Snell's Law.
